I Put A Spell On You

While the title track may well have Jay Hawkins spinning as well as screamin’ in his grave, despite being produced by the marvellous Transglobal Underground, ‘Soliel D’Egypte’ is a sublime Arabesque outing (think Bedouin Berlin cabaret) and ‘Manbai’, with Nitin Sawney at the controls, is a clunkier, funkier effort. I’m off for a mixed Meshwe.
