An exceedingly rare Swedish double album (all here on 1 CD) from 1972, reissued in a nice gatefold digipack with a booklet. Guitars, Hammond organ (including a guest shot by Bo Hansson), saxes, flutes, bass, drums and some vocals.

“"The reissue that everybody in to the Swedish 60s-70s underground scene has been waiting for but never thought would be re-released due to contractual difficulties but here it is now. One of the most legendary and sought after of all Swedish 1970s LPs. Long tracks with

Flat Earth Society was founded in 1998, when clarinetist and composer and producer Peter Vermeersch, wanted to explore new horizons after his bands Maximalist! and the cult legend band X-legged Sally.Vermeersch assembled a pack of inspired and inimitable musicians, forming a big band which has nowadays become much more than just a big band.
This album is ostensibly their tribute to Frank Zappa, and it is, in terms of creative music, but only three of the tracks are covers of Frank's work and one of...

“Excellent progressive hard rock from Norway with that typical cold scandinavian sound. The guitars are heavy and vocals are clear and sometimes evil-inspired. Underrated album.”-RYM

“A heavy rock group which formed in 1972. The first Flax album sold poorly at the time of release in 1976 and has become something of a collector's item. It contained..

“Over the course of 1969 and 1970, their live performances would reach stratospheric heights as the group began exploring music outside the traditional blues format. Fleetwood Mac's live intensity level dramatically increased which captivated American audiences.
This set is unique among shows from this era as it not only contains some of the incendiary jamming they had been developing over the course of the past year.”

Reasonably good bootleg sound on this February 1, 1970 concert on the...

Reasonably good bootleg sound on this January 4, 1970 concert, recorded at the Fillmore West in San Francisco, California, on the last US tour by the Peter Green-led version of Mac, which by this time featured a 3 guitar, bass, drums line-up.
I think that Mac, along with Cream and the Jimi Hendrix Experience were THE great triumvirate of 60s 'blues influenced' psychedelic rock bands. Sadly, their greatness was never fully captured on album, but some of this comes close...
This includes their...

“‘A fantastic album! Nick Fletcher is probably the best jazz rock guitarist in the country. His fluency is astounding, plus he possesses a first rate classical guitar technique to boot! I consider Nick Fletcher to be an absolute star’- Steve Hackett 2020

“Nick Fletcher is a prog rock/fusion and classical guitarist. Nick was born in 1960 spent many years as a session musician and classical guitarist performing in the UK and Europe. Nick is also guitarist in the John Hackett Band.

"Japan's proggers Flied Egg, consisting of former Strawberry Path alumni Shigeru Narumo and Hiro Tsunoda, supported by former Brush leader, Masayoshi Takanaka, released two albums in the early '70s, Dr. Siegel's Fried Egg Machine being the first and undoubtedly the better of the two. Dr. Siegel's..., originally released in 1972, is a much more keyboard-oriented affair, with Narumo adding a Moog, celeste and harpsichord to his usual Hammond and piano line-up. On this album, the musical influences are more...

“An intriguing and impressive new offering from Floating Points. This is less fragile than some of Sam Shepherd's more recent work and charts a further chapter in the twisting growth of his idiosyncratic musical style and sound design. His electronic compositions navigate through a myriad of textures: minimalist backdrops, emotive refrains that approach almost orchestral intensity, skittish rhythms that seem on the verge of losing control, modulating synth work that shifts between serene and piercing...

“The Floating World is the solo project of Amanda Votta. Begun in 2005, three albums have been released so far; Full Sturgeon Moon (Hand/Eye 2005), Unda (Barl Fire 2005) and River of Flowers (Foxglove 2006), appearing as well on a few compilations. Amanda has also collaborated with Gustaf Hildebrand in Lacus Somniorum, as well as with Far Black Furlong and New Risen Throne. She also has a band, Secrets to the Sea, with Neddal Ayad from Desolation Singers.
The Apparition is Amanda Votta’s attempt to...

Subtitled “More Flying Luttenbachers Non-LP Tracks 1996-2000, that’s exactly what this is. Cheap heat!..

“Intense, uncompromising music that effortlessly blasts down the stylistic barriers separating free jazz skronk, hardcore punk and grindcore / black metal fury.
"Gods Of Chaos" is an astoundingly detailed and ambitious work, a 45 minute epic, that musically illustrates the events leading up to the end of the human race. Recorded on 9 planets, but released on just one.”

“The writing and production on this FL record is a new high water mark for the band. Weasel keeps turning up the heat on us - I’m happy to be boiled alive by him.” – Jim Zim

“Losing The War Inside Our Heads is the 17th official album by The Flying Luttenbachers. It is a desolate, bracing collection of music showcasing five varied new tracks of intense, composed modernism.
Largely conceived and executed by Walter solo as a stopgap between phases, the dark, rigorous constructions here are...

“NO, THIS IS NOT THE NEW FLYING LUTTENBACHERS ALBUM!!! but, in the meantime, this raw and raucous EP hits the streets running as a limited to 100 copies only pro duped and packaged Digipak CDR.
"Spectral Warrior Mythos 2" is the first serious documentation of the transition from the 2017 reincarnation of The Flying Luttenbachers as a New York City based unit to a Chicago band after Weasel Walter relocated in..

“The seventh album from Chicago's notorious punk-jazz group nails a new high water mark in an already unforgettable discography. "The Truth..." finds the Luttenbachers at their darkest - a band distilled to it's most raw and sore - interspread are hyper-structural epics, minimalist noisescapes, high energy free jazz blows and bizarre electronic satellite transmissions.”

Includes the band’s earliest recording of the Magma classic, De Futura (short version).

"This is a great album. FM were often compared to their Canadian brethren Rush, and that was both fair and unfair. Like Rush, FM were a power trio that walked the line between progressive rock and pop tendencies. Unlike Rush, FM had no guitar player...

This is the first new FM album in over 25 years!

"Transformation is a very apt title for Canadian Prog veterans FM, for not only has their music transformed numerous times over the years, so has their line-up. Joining bassist/keyboard player Cameron Hawkins this time round is drummer Paul DeLong (Roger Hodgson/Kim Mitchell), violinist/mandolin player Edward Bernard, who has performed with Druckfarben and violinist (yes, there are two violinists here) Aaron Solomon.
