Unavailable since the mid 1970's this special limited edition CD features all the tracks on the original and much sought-after LP plus further bonus tracks from the same sessions.
Nigerian coffee tables are not the first instrument that comes to mind when thinking percussion, but they feature large in this inescapably delirious celebration of Dadaism in music.
Brought lovingly up to date with sympathetic and insightful notes by Dutch musician Freek Kinkelaar, this is real treat and celebration for all lovers of Viv!
