Happy Muthasday, you Muthas.
Prayer for Aradia has gone through many changes since its initial inception. This one has been released several times, originally in 1985 as a 30 minute cassette on the French label Bain Total (K24). The original tracklist is as follows:
A1 Premonition 8 (1:53)
A2 Flesh Parade (5:08)
A3 Purity (2:42)
A4 Purified (0:26)
A5 Forgotten (2:25)
A6 Davritt (0:46)
B1 Outsider (2:54)
B2 Invocation (0:35)
B3 Love In A Plain Brown Envelope (3:32)
B4 Love On A Stained Glass Window (1:08)
B5 Close Your Eyes, You Can Be A Space Captain (4:01)
B6 Premonition 9 (3:05)
These tracks were recorded in 1981/82 at Chez Dots in London using primitive equipment. This was before LPD had relocated to Amsterdam.
