Lazy Bones!!
WITCH ·1975
"Early in the morning I say wake up, it's very African, you know, it has like African grooves but it's like really, really dirty. I love this era of stuff where a lot of African bands were looking to James Brown for funk references and soul references, but then with WITCH in particular, it was obvious that they were also into, you know, like Stone American psychedelic rock."

"Let me say to you, I know we were on the drive last night and it came on in the car... we were discussing what a great album it is, it's quite seminal, quite a key point in his career."
