Exodus was named the 20th Century’s most important album by Time magazine, which hailed it as “a political and cultural nexus, drawing inspiration from the Third World and then giving voice to it the world over”. In the 21st Century, the term “Third World” should be relegated to history, but this album’s power certainly endures.

You’re welcome. He has one album, “Visions”, it’s beautiful. The album feels like its telling a story without words.

My go-to example of Desq’s work, to show that hurdy-gurdies aren’t just for strangling out Greensleeves at a Renfaire, is Omen.
