"Quasar was recorded in 1980, a completely harmonious blend of groove, analog synthie work and Krautrock. Similar to the former combatants Tangerine Dream or Klaus Schulze, Kaske had found his way. A successful way until today. "Quasar" appeared on the...

Bargain price on the 2nd album by this Italian fusion quartet of tenor sax/electric sax/vocals, Fender Rhodes piano, bass & drums/percussion. There is a definite Italian slant to their take on fusion; I don't know exactly how to put it into words, but ...

"Here it is, the re-issue of Negativland's long out-of-print 1983 release, “A Big 10-8 Place,” now with less fancy packaging than ever before. But it does comes packaged with a 60-minute bonus DVD of Negativland's first foray into video, No Other...

All 3 motorik classics by this fabulous German duo of Klaus Dinger & Michael Rother (both fresh from their short stint in Kraftwerk 1971). Guitars, bass, simple electronics & drumming all combine into stunning trance classics. Nicely & newly remastered...

The third album by Nico and another classic of its cold, undefinable type. From 1970, it's just Nico on voice and harmonium and John Cale on pianos and strings and other instruments at just the right times.

"This 1970 Reprise Records album...

The second album by Nico and a classic of its cold, undefinable type, especially considering it was released in 1968! John Cale's arrangements rule too. Very nicely remastered and it even includes a bonus, never before heard track! "The Marble Index is...

"Amongst the most obscure of Krautrock bands, due to being so early and on an unlikely label. In their early days they were fronted by guitarist/vocalist Michael Winzkowski (who went on to Epsilon), but apart from that, nothing is known of their...

Classic third and final (and best!) album by this German band, who released this one in 1972.

"Existing for ten years or so, Out Of Focus were amongst the finest of German rock fusion bands. Formed in late 1968 in Munich, they rapidly...

"This is a very important group whose 3 albums all collectors of German rock should stock in their vaults!"-Cosmic Dreams At Play. This is their unreleased 4th album (or further, unreleased recordings from their 3rd album Four Letter Monday Afternoon...

Classic second album by this early German band, who released this one in 1971.

"The second, self-titled album is a bit more diverse - the first track is fast, saxophone and organ dominated, relating to the first album, while "It's Your Life"...

"Out of Focus from Munich released three LPs during their lifetime. Their last one was a double LP which was done after they had toured in Italy, a musical journey which had been sponsored by the Goethe Institute. The gigs had been recorded on an...

Classic first album by this early German band, who released this one in 1970.

"Formed in Munich, late 1968, Out Of Focus was an excellent band, transceding musical boundaries. They made three albums for Kuckuck - all are absolutely brilliant...

Much-needed reissue of a 1975 live date by this improvising ensemble who specialized in music that had a very wide dynamic range, but especially who could play extremely softly at times. The original vinyl release of this album suffered greatly from...

"Evan Parker is one of the world's greatest saxophone virtuosos, a revolutionary innovator who has almost single handedly changed the language of the instrument. House Full of Floors is the exciting follow up to his incredible studio composition Time...

"Smash the hegemony of dance. Stand still. Pere Ubu return with their first new studio album in over three years. The 35th anniversary of the group's debut (The Modern Dance). The album ushers in a new era in the history of Pere Ubu, with David Thomas...

Ubu's third album was the last by the first phase of the band, as guitarist Tom Herman left after this. It's a very good listen, although listening to David "Crocus Behemoth' Thomas wax poetic about the Jehovah's Witnesses here and there makes me feel...

Fifth and final studio Ubu album until the band returned a number of years later with The Tenement Year. I saw them on this tour and they were fantastic, so even though the popular wisdom is that they weren't firing on all cylinders by this time...

After a number of very good self-released 45's, Pere Ubu found themselves signed to a hip 'new wave' subsidiary of a major label (Blank Records - which only lasted two albums) for this, the premier release on Blank. I saw their tour for this album at B...

Legendary Czechoslovakian underground band who were jailed & banned many many times in their lifetime. One of the band's better known titles, at least here in the USA, as this was the 2nd of two releases to come out in Canada, and it was relatively...

"Recorded in late 1983 & finished in January, 1984, this studio recording was intended for release in Canada, but that plan...

"The Plastic People of the Universe are back with a new album entitled Maska za maskou [The Mask behind the Mask], their first release in nearly a decade, and the first written since the death of their previous lead songwriter Milan “Mejla” Hlavsa...

This has some of the band's earliest recordings, from 1969-72, and shows their psychedelic and even 'beat' roots. Surprisingly good sound and well presented. Not the best place to start, but fans need to own this. [Globus]
