Lost Tribe by Powerman
Released in 1983, Lost Tribe’s title track is an almost 14-minute epic chug n’ groove marathon, guided by exquisitely shambolic percussion and Arthur Russell’s unmistakable cello. Across the four tracks of Lost Tribe the voices of Trevor Gale (drums), Greg Alper (saxophone), Jerry Neuhoff (vibraphone), Dana Stricker (vocals), Arthur Russell (cello), Peter Schott (piano), and Psquani Frates (backing vocals) provide a pop fantasy for Mark Freedman’s multiple music personalities and studio wizardry to sparkle. This is Powerman in peak form, remastered from the original tapes (!!!) It’s also the last remaining original stock of this, until now, outrageously rare (and priced) record.
