Here’s liner notes from the first CD edition, explaining the history of this album, thought lost for over 25 years: “Bryn was so upset by “the handshake“ between Yasser Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, that he immediately went to work on a new album. This turned out to be ’Betrayal’ and he requested Staalplaat replace the release of ’Shekel Of Israeli Occupation’ with the new album. The DAT was returned to Bryn who reused it for other recordings. The album was assumed to be long lost until many years later a British chap revealed a cassette copy, made for him by Frans de Waard, then of Staalplaat. A master for the release was created from this cassette. Hopefully the sound has turned out well enough to make this a worthy addition to the Muslimgauze oeuvre.“
