REISSUE: "A Place Called Tarot" by Tantra - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera





REISSUE: "A Place Called Tarot" by Tantra - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera
One of the most intriguing of both film and music are combined here. Tantra created a wall of imaginary visions with their dance floor classic's "Hills Of Kat Mandu" and "Wishbone" in 1979 -- in 1982 they returned with "The Journey Continues" EP featuring "Macumba" and "A Place Called Tarot". Now an underground classic for many disc jockeys, the sound of this track rings on in this video. The sequel to "The Exorcist" was released in 1977 -- "Exorcist II: The Heretic" was not well received by moviegoers. It even provoked director; John Boorman to pull the original print and re-create an alternative ending, which he felt, would save the film. Needless to say, the plot was too hard to follow for most audiences. They wanted to see Linda Blair's head spin again. I believe the film and the story were far ahead of this parallel -- it is actually an effective display of what good and evil portray in the minds of some. I have taken the mystical places from the imagination of our lead characters and placed Tantra's theme, "A Place Called Tarot" over it. It is given to take you on a ride that may not follow the film's outline, but is entrancing just as the song is.
