Very sad to hear of Andy Kershaw’s passing at just 66. He was a great champion of Suns of Arqa and world music generally, and his shows celebrated some of the best global sounds. Here’s “Beyond the Beyond” from our Andy Kershaw session in 1999

E’ uscito l’8 agosto scorso, per ora principalmente sulla piattaforma Bandcamp, Live at WOMAD 1982! di Peter Gabriel.
Va ricordato che Womad, id est World of Music, Arts and Dance, era nato da una idea di Peter Gabriel, con Thomas Brooman, Bob Hooton, Mark Kidel, Stephen Pritchard, Martin Elbourne e Jonathan Arthur e che il primo WOMAD festival si è tenuto a Shepton Mallet, Regno Unito nel 1982.
All’evento hanno partecipato, oltre a Peter Gabriel, anche band quali Don Cherry, The Beat, Drummers of Burundi, Echo & The Bunnymen, Imrat Khan, Prince Nico Mbarga, Simple Minds, Suns of Arqa, The Chieftains. L’evento per Gabriel e la società da lui fondata per organizzare l’evento è stato economicamente un disastro cui l’Arcangelo ha rimediato con lo storico ed unico concerto di reunion (evento ideato da Tony Smith) con i Genesis, il Six of the Best al Milton Keynes i cui proventi hanno permesso a Gabriel di salvare la società. Il live commemorativo uscito è tratto dalla serata del 16 luglio 1982 ed il concerto si caratterizza per una set-list che includeva sette degli otto brani che sarebbero stati poi pubblicati in Peter Gabriel IV.
La band che accompagna Gabriel è composta da David Rhodes (chitarra), John Giblin (basso), Larry Fast (sintetizzatori), Jerry Marotta (batteria), Peter Hammill (chitarra, voce) e dal gruppo di tamburi e danza di Bristol Ekomé (tamburi e percussioni).
