Description
2021 reissue, 12″ LP, Now-Again Records. Green vinyl.
‘Electrified by a diet of James Brown, the Stones and Deep Purple, Witch were the stadium-filling kings of 70s Zamrock.’ –MOJO.
This landmark recording from Now-Again’s comprehensive overview of Zambia’s premier garage-, psych-, prog-, funk-, Afro-rock ensemble Witch, We Intend To Cause Havoc! is now available in a never before seen color variant. The audio is nigh-perfect — restored and remastered from the original master tapes. Witch’s musical arc is contained to a five-year span and, in retrospect, is a logical one. The band’s first two, self-produced albums — released in unison with the birth of the commercial Zambian recording industry — are exuberant experiments in garage rock, and are as influenced by the Rolling Stones as they are James Brown. In The Past, their second album, is the perfect follow-up for anyone exposed to the Witch band through their landmark Introduction.
