Hula - Voice
As promised here is Hula's final album proper - and a mighty majestic work it is. Always best to go out on a high I'd say (if you forget about a misplaced Voodoo Chile cover of course). Voice is full of splendid highlights - this is a broodingly powerful and complex record, heavy on the technics and pounding beats.Cut Me Loose and Poison are classic Hula compositions, but it's the melodic Cold Stare which wins my vote every time. Excuse the occasional crackle on the quieter bits which I have left in for bonus authenticity. The 12" club mix of Poison is worth tracking down, if you can find a copy - I misplaced mine a while back.
Ripped from a vinyl album released on Red Rhino Records (REDLP 75) in 1987 to high resolution 24-bit flac audio.

ReplyDeleteGreat stuff!!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot!
In the day I bought everything by Hula I could find which amounted to a pretty decent portion of their output. Both my turntables are now long dead and I haven't heard any Hula for years. Many thanks!
