It has been my great pleasure to have known and to have been friends with keyboardist, composer and general musical mover & shaker Erik Lindgren for nearly 30 years.
He is a great person and also a really fascinating musician who combines great love for some very disparate musical genres into a unique end result. This is a great and fascinating listen; I doubt that most will love everything, but there is plenty here for basically ANYONE. Which is what makes this release (and Erik) so great!...

"This DVD presents footage from the band's outstanding performance at Wyspianski Theater in Poland, which proves the band's virtuosity as well as cleverness in devising remarkably intelligent compositions. The DVD also includes an interview with Pär...

"Easily the best album the group ever recorded, Nicely Out Of Tune is one of the prettiest folk-rock albums of the late 1960s. If Lindisfarne had never recorded anything else, they'd be one of the most fondly remembered acts of their era just for this album. "Lady Eleanor" is a very pretty tune that manages to incorporate elegant mandolin over some heavy rock riffing. "Road To Kingdom Come" is closer in spirit to the group's usual pub-rock sound, a singalong-type number with lots of really crunchy...

“One of the architects of no wave with his band DNA, a pioneer of noise guitar, sublimely inventive producer, and slinkily seductive songwriter, Arto Lindsay has worn countless musical hats.
Invited to make a solo record for the Black Cross Solo Sessions, Lindsay boiled it down to essential ingredients, waxing a collection of bristling new songs and works for solo guitar; on six of a baker's dozen tracks, his angelic voice offsets the bracing dissonance of his acidic electric.
Recorded at...

This is a duo of Circe Link (all vocals) and Christian Nesmith (all instruments – NOT programed) (& yes, he’s the son of Michael Nesmith).
Very proggy & definitely instrumentally reminscent of the greatness of what Yes once was, Circe sings great and instrumentally very, very good for being a one-man band supplying the backing. A sure winner for being thought of as one of the best prog rock albums of 2025!

"...might just be the best Yes album of the 21st century,"-Shindig!

Jon Lipscomb - guitar

"Jon Lipscomb's dissonant tones push the guitar to its limits, the power and energy of his improvisations is visceral."

A Liquid Landscape from The Netherlands is a bit of a departure for The Laser's Edge. Their slice of post-progressive music has a contemporary edge that finds them sitting alongside bands like Dredg, Anathema, and Porcupine Tree. The band has been a...

“2020 came to a close with LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT announcing their return and new album. Today, the legendary supergroup comprised of Mike Portnoy (Transatlantic, Sons of Apollo), John Petrucci (Dream Theater), Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater), and Tony Levin (King Crimson, Peter Gabriel) are pleased to officially announce that the new album ‘LTE3’ will be released twenty-two years after the bands’ last studio album.”

“After over 20 years since the last time we recorded together, the four of us...

“With Release, the highly acclaimed Lisbeth Quartett presents a greatly anticipated album on Intakt Records. After twelve years and five albums, Charlotte Greve, who has just been awarded the German Jazz Prize for “Artist of the Year”, has relied on her intuitive sensibilities to create the new music for Release. The result is an album marked by sensitive interplay – a...

"Rodrigo Amado, the man who leads the band with a changing lineup - which he named Lisbon Improvisation Players, or LIP if you’re in a hurry - likes double meanings. First of all, the one created with the letters L, I and P, alluding to the presence of a

Second album by this UK spacerock band heavily influenced by Hawkwind's classic early/mid 70s albums. This thing out-Hawkwinds even the classics like Space Ritual and In Search of Space; I can't say that this is the most original album I've ever heard...

Booklet and traycard are damaged

This is from the band's peak era, touring for the about to be released 'The Last Record Album'. Truly one of the US's great rock 'n' roll bands of the 70s.

"It's not surprising that Little Feat are on such blistering form during this 1975 WCBN..

“Few bands that formed in the early 1970s have managed to survive and continue touring to the present day. Little Feat is one of the few that have, in no small part due to their outstanding musicianship and the idiosyncratic songwriting of founding member, Lowell George, which has stood the test of time. This 1976 Winterland performance is one of the finest examples of Little Feat during the prime years of Lowell George, when the group had established a reputation as one of the most exciting and original...

"Little Free Rock hailed from Preston in Lancashire and were a psychedelic hard rock trio featuring Peter Illingworth (lead guitar and vocals), formerly with David John and the Mood who had recorded with Joe Meek, Paul Varley (drums), later a member of Arrows and Frank Newbold (bass and vocals). They began performing covers of bands such as The Who, The Creation (whose ‘Makin’ Time’ appeared on Little Free Rock’s album) and Tomorrow, but were soon performing mainly their own compositions...

"Lung -- the highly anticipated new album and composition from Brooklyn's genre-defying Little Women -- is an epic without precedent. Where their acclaimed 2010 suite Throat (AUM061) grabbed listeners by their necks from the first seconds, Lung arises...

"Live from Gevelsberg (Sauerland) played art-rock with flute; without the nerve-wracking breaks often heard in this genre, but rather harmonious. In 1974, they released a 7" single and recorded an LP which, however, didn’t come out at that time. Only...
