During the summertime of 1981, indie charts in the U.K. byword the liberation come up to the number trey spot. Sales of the four-track EP, which was the number nonpareil liberation by the new label, finally totaled more than than 20,000 copies. "Never Surrender," a single that followed the debut's liberation, climbed to the number two position on the U.K.'s indie charts. It took the station of "Fourth dimension Bomb," a single that Blitz's members had wanted to invest prohibited until the label nixed that idea.

Telecommunication followed, simply by then fans were decent decisive of what they perceived as a change in the group's sound. The new Blitz tested to persevere with the button of Arcsecond Empire Justice. Nidge, along with Attak's Gary Basset, tested to keep things going in the late '80s with The Killing Dream, an record album invest out by Skunx Records. Before things fell apart for honest, Nidge brought iI other musicians into the band and embarked on a European circuit.

Organisers of the country's biggest world music festival were forced to make last minute cancellations yesterday after trey musicians in their line up were ineffectual to obtain visas to play at Womad.

He was among the headlining acts listed on Womad's web site, along with Eddy Grant and Martha Wainwright.

Meanwhile, Kasai Allstars, a Congolese band wHO have performed all over the world, did non gain a temporary work out visa from the Home Office, along with the Pakistani Sufi master, Asif Ali Khan, a prot�g� of the legendary Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, and a powerful figure on the outside music stagecoach who is often referred to as Pakistan's melodious prince.


A statement from Womad added that Kasai Allstars get been forced to "cancel their whole European tour of duty as they couldn't get the visas they needed."


An Indian troupe, the Dhoad Gypsies of Rajasthan, were also unable to go into the res publica to execute at the three-day festival.


A spokesman for the organisers said it was an increasingly shop at problem each year, with musicians being denied performances in this country due to "red tape". "Organisers have noticed it's getting harder and harder with more performers in trouble over visas each year, having to go through a lengthier process each time.


"Three of the performers have got not got visas for whatever rationality but it has goose egg to do with the band as far as I know. These trey acts are hoping to play at next year's festival just the fact that deuce acts ar fighting to get visas on the day the festival begins makes things very difficult," he said.


Many devotees of world medicine will cause bought their �150 weekend tickets to the festival, starting today, expecting to see the billed performers who have since faced visa difficulties.

"We have tremendous problems getting artists over here from the likes of Mali as in that respect is no British embassy there and we make to flee the intact band � sometimes as many as 20 people � to Senegal, where they may have to wait for days for their visas.


"This is so financially prohibitive that I can't visualize why there isn't a deal where artists from these Francophile countries bathroom go through this swear out at a French embassy.


"We are working towards greater cultural diversification and exposure to each other's cultural heritage and it's a great shame that these performers can't be seen by mass who would otherwise never be able to see such acts. Where else could you see them perform?" he said.


A Home Office spokeswoman refused to comment on the Womad cases simply added that each case was "assessed on its individual merits".


Meanwhile, Eddy Grant, who is scheduled to play at the fete after a 25-year calling break, has said of Womad that: "It is still around real mass from all over the world sexual climax together to play real music."
