Arzachel - self titled - 1969

Arzachel - self titled - 1969

Studio recordings @ 320

{Out of Print}

The band consisting of Steve Hillage (guitar/vocals), Dave Stewart (organ), Clive Brooks 

(drums) and Mont Campbell (bass/vocals). The band produced their sole album under the 

name Arzachel in June 1969.

The album Arzachel was recorded and mixed in a single session in London. The 'A' side has four songs, while the 'B' side consists of only two mind-bending psychedelic tracks, the longer of which is a 17-minute jam entitled 'Metempsychosis'. It was issued on the short-lived Evolution label (also home to the debut by Raw Material) and quickly became a collectors' item. A pirate version is thought to have circulated in the late 1970s, and it has been much bootlegged in more recent years.

Track List:

Garden of Earthly Delights" (Arzachel)
Azathoth" (Arzachel)
Queen St. Gang" (K. Mansfield)
Leg" (Arzachel)
Clean Innocent Fun" (Arzachel)
Metempsychosis" (Arzachel)

- Basil Dowling (Clive Brooks) / drums
- Njerogi Gategaka (Mont Campbell) / bass, vocals
- Sam Lee-Uff (Dave Stewart) / organ
- Simeon Sasparella (Steve Hillage) / guitar, vocals

Afroskull is greasy persuasion and bad gris-gris. A New York City funk/rock collective by way of New Orleans, the ‘Skull is a sonic gumbo that is one part Funkadelic and one part Black Sabbath with generous helpings of Zappaesque runs and jazzoid horns.  The interplay of their heady musicianship and fat bottomed grooves helps to keep les bon temps rouler all night long.

The Skatalites - From Paris with Love {Out of Print}

The Skatalites - From Paris with Love

Recorded in Paris 2001

Soundboard @320

{Out Of Print}

This album was recorded live with few overdubs at Davout Studios in Paris 
in December 2001 in just 16 hours.

A return album of sorts from the Skatalites, recorded in between tour dates across Europe in December 2001. While there are only two of the original members still on the roster (Lloyd Brevett and Dizzy Johnny Moore), a number of one-time players and such have joined the band in recent years for touring purposes, and here join in for the album as well. Will Clark does a good job of mimicking Don Drummond's old trombone work while still attempting to hold a bit of his own style. The jazzier guitarist Devon James works admirably with his own sound, though it doesn't fit into the whole quite the way Jah Jerry did in the past. Other players appear and disappear as necessary, including Lloyd Knibb, the creator of the one-drop hit on drums (an important development for Jamaican music). Overall, it's a pretty good album, though there are certainly other Skatalites albums that should be heard prior to this one, such as the Ball of Fire compilation. the Skatalites were and are the premier ska band throughout Jamaican music history, and their work is what led directly into reggae proper. Despite this, though, the band begins to show its age in this album, with the replacement players acting more as tribute musicians than full members in the band. There are a couple of entirely new songs here for the true collectors, so pick it up as a completist or as a crazed fan, but not as a newcomer to the Skatalites or ska in general.

The Maü-Maü - Maü Music For Maü People - 2013 

Studio Recordings @ 128

Talk about burning fast and bright in late 2012  The Maü-Maü  erupted onto the Quebec scene like an out of control lead sled rocket  and word of the band spread pretty fast .With a ton of pedigree comes high expectations  and here was a  band that more than  lived up to all the noise that has been surrounding them.In early 2013 they went into the studio to lay down their debut album,played a few killer shows ,took the summer off, packed it in  and then put out their one and only album.That said "Maü Music For Maü People" is nothing short of a pure rush.This puppy smashes in with 15 in your face tracks that for the most part don't let up .Self described as "Psycho- voodoo-garage-a-billy-deluxe" this is all that and more.Let's just say this is raw garage melding with psychobilly that makes for a rough but kool  brew.Highlights include : "Three Men One Coffin", "Red Headed Plag","Sous Les Tropiq" and "Maü Baker".

It's sad that The Maü-Maü are no longer and they really were a band that managed to impress more than a few people . "Maü Music For Maü People " is nothing short of a damn fine album  and a pretty good testament to a short lived kool band that knew how to blow the doors off the joint. The band has posted the album HERE FOR FREE!!...

John McLaughlin & Billy Cobham - Live Montreaux 2010

John McLaughlin and Billy Cobham

Live at the Montreux Jazz Festival, Switzerland
July 2, 2010.
BBC FM Source @224

Radio presenter Jaz Nelson:

The Mahavishnu Orchestra performed in 1971, unleashed a series of cosmic… fusion albums until ‘76 when their inner mounting flame grew too hot and they imploded. They got together briefly in 1984 and then disappeared again until at last one day last July when guitarist John McLaughlin just happened to be hanging out on the banks of Lake Geneva when he got a call from his old friend Claude Nobs telling him that a band had cancelled that night and Claude said, ‘John, do you fancy getting back together with Billy Cobham and playing some Mahavishnu tunes?’

Thanks to Tom Phillips who shared the tracks on Dime. Tom noted: “John McLaughlin’s last minute ad-hoc reunion with Billy Cobham, recorded at the Montreux Jazz Festival last July. Suberbly recorded and demonstrating the John hasn’t lost his chops (where has he been for the last 25 years?), it is only short highlights…”

Certainly shows why the Mahavishnu Orchestra should never be overlooked.
Thanks also to fastone for the artwork.

Radical Face - The Bastards EP's

Nightclothes by Radical Face

Singer-Songwriter Radical Face's The Family Tree trilogy is the story of a fictitious, and sometimes otherworldly, 19th century family. The story is told by using melodies and instrumentation to represent "family members", and only using instruments that would have been available during that era of the story.
In advance of the release of the final album in The Family Tree trilogy next year, Radical Face stays with tradition by releasing The Bastards that didn't make the album but are more than worthy of being shared. The Bastards 3 EP is the next installment in this series and will be a welcome relief to fans everywhere looking for new Radical Face music.

The third Bastards EP is now up on Spotify. These EPs are just the songs that didn't fit on the proper records, but they are still a part of the whole Family Tree project. And the songs aren't throwaways. I'm actually quite happy with them. They just didn't fit the album in terms of pace, or tone.

The two sides of the cassette were joined using audtion. The tracks were converted and cut using cd wave. The source is thrilled to share his fm master tape and sees the Blues as being of of America's Greatest Treasures. Here comes a sizzing performance from Grammy Winner Sugar Blue. Having played with countless heavies of many genres, he's possibly most well known for his riffing on the Rolling Stones's hit "Miss You."

Chicago loves Sugar, and gives him a warn welome and a night to forever remember as at the end of the show he receives his Grammy for playing on "Blues Explosion."

The tape was is great shape and there was no issue with the transfer. There is some hiss, but it is nothing. Track 9 cuts in. Dont know how much is missing. Overall, it has a great mix and sounds awesome. 8-9/10.

Hoodoo Gurus - Live 

Lyon, France 1989

 The legendary Hoodoo Gurus. By any measure, one of Australia's greatest, best loved, most enduring rock bands of all time.
2012 marks an extraordinary milestone for the Hoodoo Gurus; 30 years since the release of the band's debut single, "Leilani".

To celebrate, the Gurus have compiled all their biggest hits and fan favourites onto a brand new best-of set, aptly-titled GOLD WATCH: 20 GOLDEN GREATS.
"What's My Scene?", "I Want You Back", "Miss Freelove '69", "Like Wow - Wipeout!", "The Right Time", "Bittersweet", "Come Anytime", "My Girl", "1000 Miles Away", "Waking Up Tired" - these tracks represent the unmistakable sound of the irrepressible Hoodoo Gurus, but it's merely a sample from their canon of instantly identifiable songs that have helped provide a soundtrack to Australian life going all the way back to the 1980s.

Therapy? - Nurse {1993}

Therapy? - Nurse (1993)

Studio Recordings @320
{Out Of Print}

The beauty of Nurse is its uncompromising ability to play at the outer limits of post punk, post grunge music and be totally convincing about it. One of the determining qualities of a great soul/gospel singer is whether or not they truly believe in what they are singing about; phoneys just don't carry the day which is why James Brown, Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin and Mavis Staples had the power to effect the listener in the most profound way - they all had total emotional commitment to match their musical talents. Nurse achieves that same over powering delivery.

The music coming from this trio is massive, with big sounding chords perfectly chosen to carry such a heavy sound, yet paradoxically some of the riffs may have their origin in something as innocuous as an Irish jig. Tension continues to be cranked up by a super charged grunge gone into over drive that suddenly plunges into release by duo interplays of bass and drums while sustained razor edge guitar tones hover and recede. This is a sound that blows Joy Division clean out of the water and reminded me at certain moments of early Pere Ubu. It makes Oasis sound silly and transcends Nirvana to the outer grunge limits. I'm convinced until told otherwise that the opening bars to the track 'Gone' are a doffing of the hat to the Velvet Underground's Heroin, while bringing the cello in on that same track is surely the masters touch.

Finally, due to the spacious sense of the recording, you need to have the volume up for the full sonic delivery. Unlike another reviewer who found the sound thin, I haven't been left with that impression at all, just have the volume well up and you actually get the full dividends of a cautious engineering decision - plenty of bloom and resonance with no strain or distortion. The bass is full and fabulous, the drumming tight in tuning and execution and the lead vocalist/guitarist carries the day with conviction. I also have the sneaking suspicion that Therapy's Nurse has influenced a lot of wannabees who just can't cut it, turning out limp watered down attempts that pale to insignificance next to this blistering original. Hear for yourselves.
