Kalima - Kalima

Originally released in March 1988 on Factory Records, Kalima! was the groups second collection of "cool, swingin' cuts to smokey, smooching, moonlighting, 4 am-ing romantics. Where the Downtown 'wow' types meet the Uptown serious collectors, and the talk is loud but never cheap." The album was also the first on which Kalima truly escaped from the shadow of A Certain Ratio, after the original line-up, that had recorded Night Time Shadows, splintered to allow Martin Moscrop, Jeremey Kerr and Andy Connell to concentrate on ACR. In their place came new musicians David Higgins, Matthew Taylor, Bernard Moss and Warren Sharples.
The 64 minute CD contains six bonus tracks drawn from the 12" singles Weird Feelings and Whispered Words, as well as the rare song Rainforest, previously only available on an Artists For Animals benefit compilation. The booklet features detailed sleevenotes and images of the band.
