[kj] Jihad, and Songs From The Victorious City

[Tim Bucknall]

I Liked Jihad to be honest, though i completely understand why some 
people think it has no place in the kj catalogue,
it just showed how diff kj were from anyone else on the planet in the 80's!
 you could see it as a forerunner of some of the pandemonium stuff

i don't think KJ ever used that kind of eastern sound enough, not the 
acoustic stuff like jihad or the orchestral stuff, but stuff like the 
fanatic where the guitar is like some monstorous Middle Eastern Orchestra

you all know what i mean!
i really hope they release  those tracks that Colesy found - jubilation etc
