Voodoo Mambosis And Other Tropical Diseases is the start of a new series on Stag-O-Lee. Three volumes are planned. The original records come from the collection of our esteemed Duke Jens-O-Matic, who has been a graphic artist, internationally celebrated DJ, collector and hunter for decades. Even back when we first breathed life into Stag-O-Lee, Jens-O-Matic was there and delivered four volumes of the wonderful Jim Jam Gems 10" series. Each stylistically self-contained. He is currently working on further Jim Jam Gems volume, but has a hard time with the liner notes because, "you have a pedagogical task!" Now to the present recording: What does a friend of the obscure 7" do when he already has everything in the area of rhythm & blues etc.? He is looking for other fields of activity. Different countries, different music, different influences. So does our Jens-O-Matic. He went on a little trip around the world for Voodoo Mambosis, incorporated his new love of cumbia, mixed in a pinch of voodoo, reactivated some old bluesheroes, plus some exotica - that never hurts. The great art now is to combine these disparate elements on paper in such a way that something unique and consistently exciting is created. Voodoo Mambosis And Other Tropical Diseases is the best example of this! The cover, also designed by Jens-O-Matic, is a homage to the seminal 84 compilation Rockabilly Psychosis and the Garage Disease!
