"Mask features Jeff Gauthier on electric violin, Nels Cline on guitars, David Witham on piano, Joel Hamilton on bass and Alex Cline on drums. This is Gauthier's third CD as a leader and first for Cryptogramophone. Mask features works by Gauthier, Nels ...

"Jeff Gauthier isn't the only person who has played electric avant-garde jazz on the violin (the late Billy Bang immediately comes to mind), but it is safe to say that the violin doesn't have a lot of representatives in that area of jazz. Gauthier...

"I haven't had anything similar on my musical plate for a while, so Gazpacho's eighth album Demon was an interesting, beautifully surprising and absolutely brilliant variation. Again Gazpacho mixes progressive sounds with electronic elements and folk....

“GBK are an Austrian free jazz trio that isn't afraid of being groovy. The band was founded in 2007 after a first meeting the year before, being thrown together in an improvised music session. They performed many years under the name of KGB before changing their name recently due to Russian war against Ukraine. All three musicians are happy to swap roles in their trio, therefore abstract experimental sounds have the same place in their repertoire as groove and melody. Drummer Didi Kern works both in jazz...

Very hard to find Italian release from 1989, which has improvising saxist Gebbia on soprano, alto and baritone sax and Casio digital horn, with Lelio Gianetto-double bass and Vittorio Villa-drums. [PVD]

“Geese are a quintet of native Brooklyners who formed during their freshman year of high school. They are also one of the most hyped exports to emerge from the borough in years with a complex and energetic sound built from scraps of post-punk, prog, and a deep lineage of New York rock & roll. During the front half of 2020, the band's home-recorded demos suddenly became a target for serious label attention and, having just graduated from high school, Geese found themselves fielding offers from both sides...

Floaty, spacey electronic music reminiscent of the Berlin school from the 70s.

“We go back into the years of the 70’s with Brian Geigner’s – Metamorphosis Lab. Warm analog sounds, slow floating Sequences and swirls of sound effects brings a feeling of nostalgia.
His music is to be enjoyed in the quiet hours of the day!”

"Been following the evolution of synth and prog music since the early 70’s, especially the bands who relied heavily on keyboards and synthesizers. These bands and...

"Drummer from Calabria, Roberto Genco recorded and privately released his only album, Beyond the life (Oltre la vita) in 1977. With an excellent technical and recording quality, considering it's a private production, the LP is in the jazz-rock style...

All the pieces are in place now: Tony Banks, Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Steve Hackett, Mike Rutherford. Includes some of their best early period work and this 1971 symphonic/progressive album is truly a classic.

The first 'real' Genesis album, and an early (1970) classic of symphonic/progressive rock.

Gentle Giant's 2nd album, and, for the time it was released in 1971, an extremely adventurous rock work (and one with a stupendously ugly cover!).

I remember getting this around 1973/74 and reading the liner notes and devouring the following: "It is our goal to expand the frontiers of popular music at the risk of being very unpopular. We have recorded each composition with one thought - that it should be unique, adventurous and fascinating. It has taken every shred of our combined musical and...

After In A Glass House, Giant and their record label made a concerted effort to 'break the band' in the USA, and the band toured here constantly. Signing with Capitol, they released 3 great studio albums that gave the band a slightly more rockified and accessible face, without losing a whit of the complexity of their earlier work.
Free Hand was their seventh album and was the middle one of that trio and it is one of many extremely fine works in their catalog. It rocks like hell and incredibly...

“In 1977 Gentle Giant recorded their ninth studio album The Missing Piece. It was a time of change. Punk, disco and rap were altering the musical landscape and even this well-established progressive rock band were willing to explore new directions. Side one saw them experimenting with quirky pop ("Two weeks in Spain"), a grandiose power ballad ("I'm turning around'), syncopated funk ("Who do you think you are?") and even the punky aggression of "Betcha thought we couldn't do it" Normal service was...

In this ‘post physical’ age that we occupy, this 2 CD set is the only away to own the original mixes (i.e. not the Steven Wilson remixes) of these two 1972 classics by Gentle Giant on CD.
The fact that this is on BGO, who always do a very good job mastering for CD from the licensed masters is ‘merely’ a bonus.

“Hollenbeck formed GEORGE with three specific musicians in mind, all whom he admired and wanted to play with, but none of who knew each other well. The recording session for Letters to George took place in Montreal in January of 2022. It was the first time the quartet even set foot in the same room..

This is the third album by George Pinilla’s Gepetto project. George has been the owner of the long established progressive rock shop ‘Shop 33’, and this reflects his interest and knowledge of prog rock strongly.
The album consists of two tracks, both of which are over 25 minutes!

"GEPETTO is the project of George PINILLA, composer, Franco-Spanish singer, self-taught multi-instrumentalist musician and progressive rock mail order seller since 1986. He has been playing for twenty-five years in a.

“Presented here, the definitive reissue of a lauded and misunderstood Krautrock album, German Oak's Down in the Bunker. The release has been fetishized and demonized, lauded and misunderstood for nearly four decades. In this definitive reissue of the album, the German Oak trio -- together again after 30 years apart -- have approved the remastering of their 70s music; finally tell the story behind the creation of their dark, brooding album -- and the occult-obsessed record collector behind the original...

"We all know that Gershwin was a brilliant composer, but these rare 1924 piano rolls reveal a dazzling pianist as well! He plays Rhapsody in Blue; Swanee, and Walkin' the Dog, while other performers do Let's Call the Whole Thing Off; An American in Paris (four hands); S'Wonderful; Oh, Lady Be Good; Embraceable You, and more!"

“Live In Dusseldorf 1960 by the Stan Getz Quartet is an original master concert recording from March 28th, 1960, recorded at the Rheinhalle in Düsseldorf, Germany.
Stan Getz, born Stanley Gayetski (February 2, 1927-June 6, 1991) was an American jazz saxophonist. Playing primarily the tenor saxophone, Getz was known as "The Sound" because of his warm, lyrical tone, his prime influence being the

JSP Records are the best label overall I've encountered who work in the field of releasing CDs of old jazz and blues recordings. JSP's releases typically undergo extensive (and very expensive) careful and tasteful manual cleanup, and they have become rightly renowned for the highest possible sound quality considering the source material. These releases all come packaged in full jewel cases (no little paper sleeves here) and have full personnel and reasonable liner notes. Highly...
