Brian Eno & David Byrne - LOT (INTO THE SPIRIT WORLD)
Always from "My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts," which was recorded between '79 and '80 and was set to be released in the summer of '80, this track "Into the Spirit World" contained a radio recording of American Pentecostal healer Kathryn Kuhlman, who passed away a few years earlier.
The foundation she created, which was still active at the time, enforced the removal of the song and the release was blocked.
The removed track would later reappear under the title "Into the Spirit Womb" in the '92 bootleg "Ghosts."
Then Brian Eno and David Byrne returned to the recording studio in September '80 and replaced the track with "The Jezebel Spirit," where the percussive rhythm becomes bouncy and the guitar is much funkier.
The effect remains equally mysterious and disorienting; this track resembles the musical transposition of a primitive exorcistic ritual, let’s say a sort of cathartic dance to drive away evil spirits, all represented by the recitation of a shaman and his sardonic laughter.
