Here they follow up their acclaimed CD of the Book of Angels Caym with a Latin Jazz-tinged interpretation featuring the rising star Brian Marsella on piano and keyboards. Breathtakingly beautiful, this is one of the most seductive installments of...

Beautifully packaged in a mini-lp sleeve with a booklet and a number of color photos of the band that I had never seen before. That's the good news. The news that you were all expecting, I suppose, is that the sonics are strictly bootleg quality. It is...

Recorded for the German FMP label in 1972, this is one of the landmark recordings of free jazz in Europe, a mind-blowing studio session featuring Carl on tenor saxophone, Günter Christmann on trombone, and the astonishing Detlef Schonenberg on drums. Volatile and precise, anticipating much of the future sound of.

"This is a reissue of Eugene Chadbourne's album, first released as a cassette on No Prestige Records in 1988.
Dateline: Christmas Day, 1977, San Francisco. On an ailing quarter-track tape deck, in a marathon session, Eugene Chadbourne recorded a series of slide guitar solos playing compositions by the likes of Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, and Ornette Coleman, along with a few standards and originals.
Although the recording quality was imperfect, the playing was absolute...

77' minutes of previously unreleased, LONG tracks in great sound from Don Cherry's important Swedish period, recorded in 1968 and 1971! This is where he really began to explore music beyond jazz, fusing it with folk and beyond music...

Founded in Genoa in 2007, CDZ released their very well regarded, self-titled first album in 2011 and have continued to return every few years with a new album.
This is their fourth release and the band are certainly in the forefront of modern bands performing Rock Progressivo Italiano.

This opus represents a further step forward in the band 's evolution and, first of all, shows a better and wider.

This is a new copy, however the sleeve has some dents and creases.

Beautiful, mini-lp sleeve remaster of this classic Mexican psychedelic release.

ERA is the duo of Akihisa Tsuboy of KBB and Pochakaite Malko (electric and acoustic violin) and Natsuki Kido of Korekyojinn and Bondage Fruit. The music is playful and intense by turns (although intense in a mostly acoustic way).

"Finisterre, one of Fabio Zuffanti's many projects, were founded in the now distant 1994, debuting the following year with a self-titled album that immediately pushed the band at the peak of the reborn Italian prog scene of the '90s. It was the beginning of a beautiful story that lasted about ten years, marked by four wonderful releases that still don't suffer today from the inevitable passing of time. And from that beginning, 25 long years have already passed: reformed for Zuffanti's Z-Fest event in...

Out of print now world-wide , but we found a couple of copies of this Japanese, mini-lp sleeve version in a warehouse and it's here until they are truly gone forever!

An early 80's release by this keyboardist who rightly made a name for himself playing with Magma, Heldon & Weidorje! This crosses the sound of Magma & Heldon.

Players include Richard Pinhas, David Rose, Bernard Paganotti, Christian Vander, Didier Batard, Jean-Pierre Fouquey & more!

"The measure of an artist's worth is his entire oeuvre, not simply a specific moment in time, a particular group or a single release. Still, while keyboardist Stu Goldberg never made the name for himself that he should have as a member of John...

I suppose that technically this is the 3rd Gong album, but this is the one where it REALLY all came together for the first time to my ears.

An early but still great version of the band, with Daevid Allen-guitar/vocals, Gilli Smyth-vocals, Didier Malherbe-saxes, Christian..

The latest Hostsonaten release; Hostsonaten is headed by Fabio Zuffanti, who is responsible for so many good, Italian prog releases: La Maschera di Cera, L'Ombra Della Sera, Finisterre, projects under his own name, and Hostsonaten!

"The idea of..

A reissue of a frighteningly rare 1969 album by the musicians of Parson Sound (who, it should be remembered, never released anything during their lifetimes, so that this is the first music that anyone outside of those who saw them perform every heard!). This combines the trance/drone/psych/ minimalism/hippie rock with a bit more of a hard rock/Hawkwind edge - which is pretty amazing as Hawkwind weren't even around then!

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

"This recording is too short but that doesn't mar the fact that this is a true gem! Milt plays brilliantly with all of his heart and he swings like hell on all of the t
