I think you will find those lyrics were written by Morphy Scratch Richards. No relation to Keith.

After a day of enforced decorating time to relax with some lovely lilting township jazz from the master of the genre with an ace band - mid 80s Abdullah Ibrahim Water from an Ancient Well on Black Hawk vinyl.

Used to go out of my way to go and see them live whenever they were playing in an area I was in. Never disappointed me always a great show. I had a dub copy of the master tape of one of their albums before it was overdubbed at a later point and to me that was the version that should have been released but can’t find it no more. Shame as it was excellent

I remember an excellent feature that Hi Fi Answers used to do on an artist - reviewing their catalogue - Tim Buckley, Kevin Ayers, Zappa and Roy Harper spring to mind.
In those days in the 80’s a lot of good stuff was out of print or if you wanted it Virgin might have say Tim Buckley’s Blue Afternoon on import at £8 and at £8 that was a king’s ransom in those days.
The John Cale article included Helen of Troy and the reviewer John Bamford maybe saying he waited ages to hear this album and what a let down.
On board guitar ace Chris Spedding and Sandy Denny’s rhythm section along with Eno.
Actually it’s not bad…. Not sure about his pink shoes.
