A completely remixed/reworked version of the first Mimir album which was originally recorded between 1989/90 and released in 1991: Edward Ka-spel, Andreas Martin, Silverman and Christoph Heemann concentrate on a variety of analogue synths and Krautrock...

I have rediscovered the pleasure & the emotion to play free again. This music is full of warmth, melody, energy & fantasy, with, of course, a Mediterranean soul... Pino Minafra-trumpet, Sandro Satta-alto sax, Georgio Occhipinti-piano, Vincenzo Mazzone-...

"Since the late 1980's, Carla Kihlstedt and Satoko Fuji have been at the forefront of New Music, performing, recording and touring in Big Bands, rock groups, jazz bands, classical ensembles and improvisational units all over the world. They now get...

Tito Pueblo-vocals, Bill Gilonis-guitar (of The Work), Ilja Komarov-bass & Trixa Arnold-drums. "Tito Pueblo, aka Rob Murphy (Orchestre Murphy), has been responsible for some terrible lapses of judgement & taste. Here he gives us an album of post-Beatle...

Eight great 50s works! Some of these are Charles just starting to find his footing and are half great but at least half of these are stone classics and must-owns: Mingus Three, Charles Mingus Quartet and Max Roach, The Clown, East Coasting, Mingus at...

Impulse! Is celebrating their 50th anniversary with several re-issues including a collection of “2-fers," two albums on one compact disc.

The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady is one of the greatest achievements in orchestration by any composer...

You all know that I consider Charles one of the great composers of the 20th century, so I'm biased here, but basically all of his 50s/early 60s Atlantic recordings are fantastic and this is no exception. This 1964 album was made up of unreleased sessio...

Some of you who are fans of US space music will remember synthesist Chuck van Zyl, who released music under the name Xile, his own name, and in collaboration with The Nightcrawlers, among others. For almost 25 years he has hosted "Stars End", a program...

Either a very long CDEP or a short album (35), this is a really wonderful first release by a female singer/composer named Kelsey Michael, plus trombone, trumpet, sax, piano, bass, drums, & electronics (which are very subtle). The effect is kinda like a...

"The six musicians from Oberhausen released their only LP in 1978. Symphonic rock. The LP "Fly away" was released in two different covers: initially (and that’s the version of this CD) with the legendary bull-headed creature from ancient Crete and...

I've had the great pleasure of seeing this band twice and they are extremely entertaining as well as magnificent players/improvisors. And Phil is always a great hoot to see live! Phil Minton (voice), John Butcher (soprano & tenor saxophones), Veryan...

Phil Minton and Veryan Weston began their collaboration in 1987 when they were commissioned by the Le Mans Festival in 1989 to write and perform a composition for 22 voices based on the prison writings of Ho Chi Minh. Since then they have toured the wo...

For whatever reason, Orquestra Mirasol changed their name to Mirasol Colores with this, their third album. This was originally released in 1977, and, like almost all electric jazz/rock in 1977, it's beginning to run a little bit low on steam...

Great sounding live, archival release from the period when Miriodor were a trio ("Miriodor" and "3rd Warning"). Both of these albums are unfortunately out of print at this time, so it's also the only way to currently hear this period of the band's...

There are few things as exciting to me personally as receiving a new release from this band, who I regard as one of the greatest of the greats. Miriodor have been making adventurous, memorable and truly entertaining instrumental rock music for 25...

PROMO

The first album by the best US post-punk band that I know of - think of Gang of Four, but not English. This is great stuff on its own and it's also where half of Birdsongs of the Mesozoic came from when Burma collapsed.

Hot damn, I've been waiting for a legit release of this on CD for about 15 years!! This is a great jazz-rock album from 1974, with a line-up that includes two reeds, keyboards...

An unbelievable price on the hard to find Japanese version of this great album!

"Though somewhat underrated, the late Blue Mitchell stands as one of the finest trumpeters in the 1960s and '70s hard bop scene. His crisp, crackling, extroverted...
