Simon (good lad) has found another Suns of Arqa album featuring JCC. The good news, according to information on the official Suns of Arqa web site, is that this one is still available.

The following description from The Suns of Arqa web site... 'Wadada's masterpiece is a world requiem mass with Dutch philosopher Erasmus (Professor Stanley Unwin) as your guide. In the SOA cathedral of dub, Indian Gods sit contentedly beside Celtic witches and the Old Testament prophet Ezeckiel (John Cooper Clarke). The Suns of Arqa combine modern and primitive dance rhythms, religious incantations, eastern melodies and even a part of Faure's Requiem, and it works!
