Kolonel Djafaar's 'Cold Heat' packs a mighty punch, combining the irresistible charm of Ethio jazz and psych rock with the power of a big band brass section, that has made them a formidable live force across Belgium. On 'Bactrian Camel'' the four-man brass section picks up a thundering groove, only for the organ-led rhythm section to answer with their own snaking retort. Joris
Wendelen's electric guitar riffing adds a further Middle Eastern flavour to the stew. Written by trombonist Willem De Mol, who delivered the song after two months alone in Russia, 'Lamentation' continues the Ethio vibe with a little Latin panache. The brass-led tone here is mysterious, the melody lingers. An almost surf-esque guitar solo transports the listener before the main groove on organ and brass recalibrates us to the solid rhythm.
