Kalima and Singles

originally released in march 1988, kalima! was their second collection of cool, swingin cuts to smokey, smooching, moonlighting, 4 am-ing romantics. where the downtown wow types meet the uptown serious collectors, and the talk is loud but never cheap. the album was also the first on which kalima truly escaped from the shadow of a certain ratio, after the original line-up splintered to allow martin moscrop, jeremey kerr and andy connell to concentrate on that band. in their place came new musicians david higgins, matthew taylor, bernard moss and warren sharples. the 64 minute cd contains six bonus tracks drawn from the singles 'weird feelings' and 'whispered words', as well as the rare song 'rainforest', previously only available on an artists for animals benefit compilation. the booklet features detailed sleeve notes and images of the band. on ltm
