Jamaica! transforms every time it revives in different bodies as many lives matters!!!

Jamaica! sent to them a file with their latest recording released by
Cafe Oto record
label
Takuroku
called
Leon
and Les Harry's made a wonderful improvisation over it, the voice and music
reminds me of many works by my favourite British avant-garde musician Robert
Wyatt from Soft Machine and his solo career from The End of an Ear and
Matching Mole. For further information about Radio Tisto please click
