One of the very greatest progressive hard rock bands (yes, progressive; just listen to Jon Lord's organ work!) of the early 70s, captured at their peak, live in Japan in 1972. Yes, this is where "Smoke On The Water" comes from, but honestly, it's one...

Here is the earliest known video footage of Deep Purple Mk II (Richie Blackmore, Jon Lord, Ian Paice, Ian Gillian, Roger Glover), performing live on European TV in the early 1970's. This is from the BEAT CLUB German TV show of the early 1970's and the ...

"Paul Desmond's sessions away from the Dave Brubeck Quartet were always something special, and this greatly expanded reissue edition of Desmond Blue is no exception. By far the most interesting album that the alto saxophonist ever did with an orchestra...

"Now listeners can enter the heart of the Paul Desmond/Jim Hall sessions, a great quartet date with Gene Cherico manning the bass (Gene Wright deputizes on the title track) and MJQ drummer Connie Kay displaying other sides of his personality. Everyone...

A sextet of violin, analog keyboards, guitar, bass, drums and vocals, Deus ex Machina's sound is a unique and unequaled blend of aggressive jazz-rock mixed with complex rhythms, 1970s-style hard-rock guitar and hints of Rock In Opposition-style avant...

"Debut recording by composer/musician Andrew Raffo Dewar featuring two immersive experimental works of fragmented melodies, meditative noise explorations and haunting drones. Six Lines of Transformation begins with one cycle of the original material...

"The sticker on the cover of this cd announces its Di Meola's return to solid body electric guitar. I think this statement led many people think this was going to be Land of the Midnight Sun 2 or Elegant Gypsy 2. It is not and it is not meant to be...

"Al Di is certainly not resting on his laurels after the phenomenal, and sublimely beautiful, "The Grande Passion"! "Flesh on Flesh" expands on the strong latin influences of the previous CD, but fans of his ferocious talent on electric guitar will be...

"First off...let me say - I really like this album. The very thought of this album always brings to mind a college professor of mine. The man was very provocative (a good quality for a teacher) and really challenged the pre-conceptions of his...

One of the great deals we currently have! This is a great, fun, retro-styled album; one of the best of its kind. Highly recommended.

This is a new UK band who are inspired by the heady expermentation going on in rock music in the very late 60s..

Monster price on this document of a true 'monsters of fusion' summit meeting!

"Stars in their own right, Al, Stanley and Jean-Luc reach new levels of virtuosity as a trio. The concert features highlights from their individual careers plus many...

"Following up the superb Elegant Gypsy was no mean feat, but Al di Meola gave it his best shot with the similarly styled Casino, released in 1978. Featuring a core band of Steve Gadd, Anthony Jackson, and Barry Miles (whom di Meola came up with before...

"Guitarist Al di Meola's second record as a leader is generally an explosive affair, although it does have a fair amount of variety. With Jan Hammer or Barry Miles on keyboards, electric bassist Anthony Jackson, drummer Lenny White (Steve Gadd takes...

"One of the guitar heroes of fusion, Al di Meola was just 22-years-old at the time of his debut as a leader but already a veteran of Chick Corea's Return to Forever. The complex pieces (which include the three-part "Suite-Golden Dawn," an acoustic duet...

"Talk about ambitious. This two-LP set finds guitarist Al di Meola performing with his quintet of the time (featuring keyboardist Philippe Saisse), with studio musicians, solo, in a reunion with pianist Chick Corea, singing a love song, and welcoming...

"Dionysos was one of Canada's most influential early progressive rock bands. Having formed in Quebec in 1969, they gained a name for combining French-language vocals with intricate musical interplay, and played at the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival...

The Dixie Dregs burst out of Florida in the mid 70's as a quintet of keyboards, guitar, violin, bass and drums, heavily influenced by the Mahavishnu Orchestra, but bringing their own Southern-flavored soul to the stew. No one ever tried to combine Maha...

Pretty wild and wonderful to see this 30 year old professionally made document pop up out of nowhere. This is by the original lineup of the Dixie Dregs, and while the band that Steve Morse leads to this day (now The Dregs) are still quite good, they...

The Dixie Dregs burst out of Florida in the mid 70's as a quintet of keyboards, guitar, violin, bass and drums, heavily influenced by the Mahavishnu Orchestra, but bringing their own Southern-flavored soul to the stew. No one ever tried to combine Maha...

This is the first album by DJ Spooky, one of the main faces of the avant-garde side of dj/turntablism, merging influences and elements of musique concrete and the avant-garde with dj techniques. Along with Christian Marclay, he is one of the people who...

Djam Karet were established in 1984 and by the late 1980's had established themselves as one of the US's most important instrumental progressive rock ensembles. Compared by the press with King Crimson, Pink Floyd, the Grateful Dead, Ozric Tentacles and...

This chronicles Eric Dolphy's legendary concert recorded July 16, 1961 at New York's Five Spot Cafe. What a band: Eric Dolphy-flute, bass clarinet, alto sax, Booker Little-trumpet, Mal Waldron-piano, Richard Davis-bass, Ed Blackwell-drums...

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

"This cd is the second of three that chronicles Eric Dolphy's legendary concert recorded in 1961 at New york's Five Spot cafe. Dolphy' clarinet and flute lead Mal...

These 3 lengthy improvisations are wonderfully paced, characterised by an authoritative sense of purpose & direction. Doneda continues to extend the sonic capabilities of the soprano saxophone &...confirms his position as one of the most important & ex...

This is a tough one to describe, but the closest analogy might be the record that Alamaailman Vasarat did with vocalist Tuomari Nurmio, in that the music is pretty out rock/avant-progressive, while the vocals are more in a 'twisted Americana/post Tom ...

Dose Hermanos is a multi-media improvisational keyboard duo made up of Grateful Dead bookends, Tom Constanten and Bob Bralove. Tom played keyboards with The Grateful Dead during their most exploratory period in the late 60's, and Bob Bralove was a soun...

Amazing price on this SBM version of this wonderful, wonderful album with with lyrics, photos and Nick's hand-lettered lyrics(!) of the brilliant, final work by this genius folkie with the wonderful lightly husky voice and absolute masterful guitarwork...

Dreamtime is the band of the great British trombonist Nick Evans, who is heard from too little since the 70's. This was recorded in 1986, so it is chronologically their 2nd album, although it remained unreleased until 2004. A shame, as it's a good qual...

An amazing, newly lowered price on perfect copies of the Japanese mini-lp sleeve version of this classic fusion album, which is sadly completely and utterly out of print in every part of the world.

All good things must come to an end, and...

An amazing price on perfect copies of the Japanese mini-lp sleeve version of this classic fusion album. This album is not in print that I know of any other way. This was their fifth and last completely fantastic from start to finish album; they...

While they last, this is 50% off the usual price and is a great deal for these two albums, complete in one package and well mastered by BGO who always do a good job.

This is the band's two albums, available on CD legitimately for the first time..

This very early 1970's UK folk rock band could roughly be compared to Fairport Convention. They only made this one album in 1971, which has always been quite a rarity; this is the unreleased second album which didn't come out for 20 years and which...

"It is utterly compelling and maddening to listen to the opening "intro" off Swedish psych-prog outfit Dungen's third album Tio Bitar (which translates as "Ten Pieces/Songs"). It begins roaring out of the gate in a wall of guitar squall, but sounds...

The great Cuneiform Records drillout/blowout sale. After 25 years of releasing great, hard to sell music, you won't be surprised to read that we've simply got too many of some titles. To make some room for the future, for a limited time you can buy...


"The innovative and provocative first album by the recently performed partnership of Paul Dunmall and Roman Mints. These two acclaimed creators and performers of new music have come together to produce an album that explores experimental and beautiful...

A studio recording by saxist Paul and drummer Tony. Paul concentrates solely on the saxes on this one, and especially on the tenor. This definitely fits into the 'energy jazz' category, as the pair wind their way through the lengthy program (3 tracks h...

This is a bargain price for an hour of music by a noisy-yet-charming and oh-so-French (meant completely seriously and in a positive way) trio consisting of...

There is no doubt in my mind that the early electric band/Blonde On Blonde era Dylan is one of the great periods of the man's work. And he looked so cool too! This is the soundtrack to the fantastic Martin Scorsese documentary that traces Bob's...

New bargain price on these two albums on one CD! Two great albums which were legitimately released seperately, but have been out of print for a long time, now repackaged in a high-quality pirate edition. An underservedly obscure German psychedelic jazz...

Earth and Fire were an early 70's Dutch progressive band. This 1973 album was their 3rd release, and is generally agreed by all to be their best, along with their second. The band featured vocalist Jerney Kaagman, who has a clear, soaring voice...

Earth and Fire were an early 70's Dutch progressive band. This 1971 album was their 2nd release, and is generally agreed by all to be their best. The band featured vocalist Jerney Kaagman, who has a clear, soaring voice similar in overall sound to Anni...

"Their music is inspired by Ange (The wonderful "Circus" is here sung by Ange charismatic singer Christian Decamps), and includes medieval influences that remind of Minimum Vital. Some very good musicians also add to the overall good impression."

Led by keyboardist Rick Van Der Linden (grand piano and organ) who later founded Trace, Ekseption were one of the earliest classical rock bands. This album is filled with 'rocked up' versions of lots of Bach and Beethovan, plus Tchaikowsky, Khatchaturi...

This has 96 tracks by the earliest lineup of the Duke Ellington orchestra and there's just some wonderful stuff here. This set covers all of Duke Ellington's recordings from the beginning of his recording career up to early 1929.

John Ellis was the guitarist in Peter Hammill's band for a number of years. This is an album of electronic/soundscape-type works, made to accompany an exhibition of painting by German artist Moishe Moser. Some of the paintings appear in the booklet. [S...
