Creation Rebel - Historic Moments, Vol. 2 (1994)

"Historic Moments, Vol. 2" is little more than a bonus-tracked reissue of "Starship Africa", the 1978 DJ Superstar album that, unreleased at the time, was remixed and revamped for release in 1980. As such, it remains one of the most intriguing albums in the Adrian Sherwood catalog, not only because of the continuing hope that the original vocal takes might be released someday, but also because things don't get freakier than this. 

Comparisons with Tangerine Dream and the Grateful Dead long ago established Starship Africa as the dub world's answer to Dark Side of the Moon, a spaced-out suite that transports you to other worlds whether you want to go there or not; it comes, therefore, as something of a shock when the bonus tracks kick in, and earth reappears via three distinctly misplaced cuts from "Threat to Creation", plus "In I Father's House," a booming assault by the legendary Prince Far I, previously available only in Japan. 

Overcome those shocks, however, and every accolade poured onto the original "Starship Africa" remains as valid as it ever was. This truly is an album for the ages.
