The conceptual story line Features an impressive cast on the ARQA stage with John Cooper-Clarke as Ezekiel; Professor Stanley Unwin as Erasmus; Helen Watson as the Maid of Orleans; Sanyogita Kumari and Sarah Wildwitch as the Celtic sisters of Wyrd and Kadir Durvesh as Kali the destroyer. The effect is both fascinating and impressive.The most unusual records of all time. NMEFor sheer spirit and vision this album is taking pride of place in my collection.
