This record represents two aspects of the music for Alan Greenberg's film "Land Of Look Behind". The first side presents material developed from the location recordings made in Jamaica during filming. The rhythm patterns for "Confusion In Belief" and "Testimony And Honor" are based on the Nya Binghi, with vocal material being drawn from monologues that appear in the film. The second side is comprised of a remix and new arrangement of music used in the film. The voices on "Gun Court" again coming from the location recordings

Land of Look Behind is a 1982 documentary film about Jamaica. It was filmed in May and June of 1981 by Alan Greenberg, and was the director's first film. The film's cinematographer was Jörg Schmidt-Reitwein, an associate of Werner Herzog. The musical score is by K. (Kerry) Leimer. The film begins with footage of Jamaica's wild interior region called the Cockpit Country. It also features footage of the funeral of reggae musician Bob Marley.

Land of Look Behind (Remastered + Expanded). Includes FREE MP3 version of this album. Although this album is alone in Leimer's catalog as containing rock rhythms, it is at heart not so different from his usual rarified ambient music. 4 people found this helpful.

Talk about K. Leimer - Land Of Look Behind


Kerdana
This is BRILLIANT moody synth music. Sometime sparse and placid but always about a mood like looking into the long distant highway in the setting Arizona sun. If you like Music For Airports era Eno and the early Jensen/Barbierri music this is a perfect companion. Minimal and mesmerizing music.
