"You’ve never heard a string quartet like this, that’s for sure. In place of the classical grouping of two violins, viola, and cello that is ubiquitous in chamber music, this improvising string quartet consists of guitar, violin, cello, and double bass. T

Unique and quite good first album by this 'progressive rock/jazz fusion experience' (as it sez on the label), who really are a progressive rock/jazz experience! Considering that these musicians all come from the alternative/underground side of rock...

This is a collection of demos and etc made by the original, short-lived line-up of T2 which - had the band survived - would have formed the foundation for their second album. Of course, they didn't survive and these rare recordings, which actually are...

This 2000 release was the band's 3rd album, but their first to not be self-released and generally available. This is obvously in the progressive rock vein, but it is not typical progressive rock - or really typical anything. Heavy bits that might be in...

"For the first time on CD and straight from the master tapes! This legendary, almost impossible to get album was recorded in Barcelona in 1971 in the same studios (GEMA) as the rare and great counterpart "Pan Y Regaliz". The album was released as a...

Craig Taborn-piano

"Avenging Angel' is Craig Taborn’s distinguished contribution to the great solo piano tradition at ECM, a powerful, purposeful and rigorous album, which rises to the challenges of the format and transcends them. The disc...

"Sacred texts from the Mishnah, prayers from North Africa and the Middle East, modern Hebrew poetry and even a letter found in the streets of Jerusalem all serve as the basis for this exciting exploration of the roots of Hebrew song by these innovative...

First ever CD release for the last of 3 albums by this French/Vietnamese quintet who performed symphonic rock in the mid to late 1970's. A quintet of vocals, dual guitarists, keyboards (piano, moog, organ), bass and drums, and they are often thought of...

"The second album from this Finnish ensemble finds them changing lanes very slightly. They have added Otto Grunstrom on vocals (on 4 tracks). The guitars seem to have a bit more crunch and there is a subtle, more polished feel. Tuvian throat singing...

This is two great 1969 releases on one CD; while the front cover only shows "Giant Step", his forth album, this also includes his third album "De Ole Folks At Home".

"In less than 24 months, Taj Mahal (guitars/vocals/banjo/harmonica) had issued..

"Taj Mahal's second album, recorded in the spring and fall of 1968, opens with more stripped-down Delta-style blues in the manner of his debut, but adds a little more amplification (partly courtesy of Al Kooper on organ) before moving into wholly...

"Led by infamous Fluxus member Takehisa Kosugi, Tokyo's Taj Mahal Travellers were one of the prime examples of a band more heard-of than actually heard. Their vinyl legacy (the 1972 LP July 15, 1972 released on CBS/Sony Japan; the 1974 2LP August 1974...

Excellent performances of John Cage's piano works by this pianist.

"This recording dating from 1970 is duo free improvisation from two of the Japanese avant-garde music scene's most vital practitioners. Both have since passed on and left some of the most challenging music in the world of post- jazz improvisation. It...

Really good album by what I think is all young, new players based out of NYC. Alon Nechushtan-keyboards, Marc Mommaas-saxophones, Matt Pavolka-bass, Jordan Perlson-drums, Matt Shulman-trumpet. Everything in the hype-sheet that follows is true!. "Talat...

Talk Talk were a wanky, mid 1980s pop band who fairly quickly became sonic explorers, using tremendous amounts of space and ideas in their music, and, as someone once pointed out, it could definitely be argued that what they did once they started exper...

First time on legitimate CD reissue!
"Tamam Shud were formed after the break up of beat/R&B band, The Sunsets. The band was ostensibly a vehicle for singer and songwriter Lindsay Bjerre (whose burgeoning interest in the acid rock experience had...

A novel blending of jazz-rock and various Eastern ethnic musics, all put together with a modern/avant sensibility. Hard to pigeonhole and pretty nice.

"Tamandua is a sax/guitar/drums trio based in Boston, MA. Labels are hardly accurate, but the..

"Outside of his native Pennsylvania-West Virginia stomping grounds, Todd Tamanend Clark remains one of the least known North American underground artists in the 'lost music' DIY field of his era, considering he has collaborated with and shared time with m

"The Tangent release Going Off On Two" is their second live DVD/CD. As an independent Fan-funded release, this DVD shows the new band performing over 90 minutes of music from different areas of their career. Filmed in a studio environment the DVD...

"Excellent second album from this Argentinian quartet recorded in 2002. Instrumentation is flute, guitar, bass, and drums. Guitarist Ignacio Lois has a strong Fripp influence, using gobs of sustain for a fat, dirty sound. Flautist Damian Lois has at...

Electronic Meditation is the quite wild first release by Tangerine Dream, recorded in 1969 and released in 1970 on OHR. Unlike their later albums, there are no synthesizers here, only lots of 'effects' and imagination. The band is a trio of Edgar Froese..

This was filmed in the USA when the band toured in support of their Rockoon album.

"First time I've ever seen this concert DVD.Not great,but fairly good. Show was taped on October 25,1992 at the Paramount Center in New York. Plenty of beautiful..
