Affirming the polyglot of Brixton/ London in 1983 as its blueprint, For A Reasonfuses dub, tape manipulations and highlife guitars- a genre that may sound trite or derivative now, but was groundbreaking then.  Multi-instrumentalist Charles Bullen traded the agit-prop punk of his former band, This Heat (a favorite of John Peel) for the mélange of Lifetones.  Vinyl mastered by John Golden ( who remapped the Sub Pop and SST catalogs), For A Reason shines as a theoretical hybrid of Scratch Perry and My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts.  Their only album, the original vinyl commands hundreds of dollars on the world market.  Simply put, hear in the know.
