No, _Udu Wudu_ was a great album by Magma, but perhaps
you are thinking of Can's _Tago Mago_, also a fine album?

Very much so, I've always seen Magma as a syncretic blend
of Carl Orff and John Coltrane in outer space.

I have to agree. Jamie Muir turns my crank. I've seen
vids of the band from the _Lark's Tongue_ period and Muir
is amazing, especially with Bruford. He's like the icing
on the cake. Yum.
Ever hear of a guy your way in Texas by the name of Spot?
Puts out occasional self produced LPs. I'm trying to
track down some more of his stuff. He's a bit like R.
Stevie Moore but with more blues influence and a bit
further out there.
Cheers,
Kenneth
