Label Press Release ::
Early collaborative material from 1984. Originally only available as a cassette (released initially by the UK's Frux label, then
later on David Jackman's Aeroplane label) in very small editions. Salute is comprised of 8 parts and can be viewed as the
first full-length collaboration between Organum and The New Blockaders following the release of the legendary 'Pulp' 7" in
1983. These pivotal sessions, as the title suggests, were landmark recordings. The result was in essence an appreciative
'salute' amongst the collaborators with respect to their individual as well as collective work. This remastered edition is a
massive improvement in sound over the rare cassette versions. Not only do the intense tonal textures finally blaze through in
their truly maximum form, but the CD edition also allows for an uninterrupted running program.
