Regular Music - Regular Music Somehow, this very excellent album of mostly acoustic systems music was released by Rough Trade in the mid 80s. I’ve had it and it’s crap pressing for decades and decades and am finally able to really hear it! Highly recommended for fans of minimal music / systems music. “Regular Music were early instigators of the UK post-systems movement whose work straddles the spheres of rock, minimalism and post-punk. The band was formed in 1980 by composer/performers Helen Ottaway, Jeremy Peyton.. 21-GG313 $19.00

Woof Records - Woof 7 Inches (Mega Blowout Sale) Woof was Tim Hodgkinson's label. This release is a pretty big deal, if only for the inclusion of the really, really great "I Do, I Do...I Don’t, I Don’t" EP by Tim and Bill Gilonis, which has been unavailable for over 20 years, was a miserable grotty pressing to begin with, and was Tim's very first post-Cow recordings and the roots of The Work.

Jahn, Lothar - Dreams of 75 vinyl lp (due to size and weight, this price for the USA only. Outside of the USA, the price will be adjusted as needed) “Lothar Jahn’s "February '75” single was released by the German label Sound Records in 1977. It was a very unusual record, somewhere between psychedelic, folk, and Krautrock. It was reviewed thus on Discogs: “A mysterious journey through Cosmic Psych Folk Kraut, whatever you may call it. Fantastic, from beginning to end. Another Kraut on 45 milestone.” The newly recorded album, “Dreams of ’75,” is an extended riff on the original single, taking that smaller vision as a starting point and then launching... 18-Lion 196 LP $32.00
Krakatoa - We Are The Rowboats This Cuneiform title is LONG out of print, but we found a few and can offer them to you at the regular price, while they last! Don't blink and miss it!

One of the most frustrating cases of 'signing a band I really liked and thought had a huge potential and who broke up much too soon after their signing'.... Rune 168 $15.00
Cluster - Konzerte 1972 / 1977 This is a document of two modestly well recorded shows by Cluster in a very early and later early prime: 1972 and 1977.
