WIZARDS OF OOZE - THE DIPSTER

The Wizards Of Ooze are not to be confused with The Wizards of Twiddly, the British band that once was 3/5 of The Muffin Men and that toured and recorded with Kevin Ayers.
No no no. The Wizards Of Ooze were a Belgian acid jazz ensemble that released their first album as Wizards Of Ooze in 1994. And this album was called "The Dipster".
Before Wizards Of Ooze, there was Vibes Ahead Alliance, but that's another story.

When I first heard about Wizards Of Ooze, the were compared to Jamiroquay and to Frank Zappa. Had to check that out and wasn't disappointed.

Wizards Of Ooze released three albums between 1994 and 1999. They called it a day in 2001.
Next March, the albums will be re-released together with a 'new' album with various demos and mixes. That'll be fun...
