After listening to the weird rap being laid on my head by the vocalist, it occurred to me that the vocalist was none other than Arthur Brown. The DJ announced two titles -- "Texas House Requiem" and "Mechanical Masseur". Sadly, I was too hurried to gather any more info, other than the fact that the music was only three years old. The general weirdness and overall creativity struck me as worthy successor to "Crazy World.." Is anyone else familiar with this music? -michael
