If ever there was a group in the Britpop movement that brought spirituality to the table, Kula Shaker did it in spades, and magnificently at that.
After a trip to India lead singer and front man Crispian Mills became interested in Indian music, culture and tradition and decided to use instruments like the sitar, tamboura and tabla and write songs in the ancient and sacred Hindu language.
The combination with the psychedelic swirling guitars and a Beatles-esque vibe ensured a string of top-ten hits, including "Tattva", "Govinda", "Hey Dude", and their cover of the Deep Purple classic "Hush".
'K' climbed to the top of the British album charts, went double platinum and won Kula Shaker the 1997 BRIT award for Best Breakthrough Act, and is now available on vinyl for the first time since its original release in 1996.
And Music On Vinyl being Music On Vinyl, they have added a bonus purple one-sided 7" with their hit-single "Hush"!"
