The Gods To Samuel A Son 1969 uk great psych rock 2009 japan bonus track remaster




Here�s a bit of a conundrum: whereas concept albums often shift melodies down in favor of big ideas, this one is all about songs � unlike THE GODS� debut that saw them try to enter the already trodden waters. Beating FIRE�s similarly shaped "The Magic Shoemaker" time-wise, the second time around the band gave reins to Ken Hensley who, less constrained by the progressive paradigm of the day, came up not only with memorable tunes but also with the trademark sound he�d perfect in URIAH HEEP.

It�s unmistakably his composer style behind the vocal line of the title track, and the acoustic �He�s Growing�, while still rooted in psychedelia, could have easily find a place on any of the master�s solo records. But for all that, and a few lightweight numbers such as �Penny Dear� with its Caribbean undertow or the TRAFFIC-like �Autumn�, this is an ensemble work, as proven by a single cover of �Maria� from �West Side Story�, in the vein of but not as wild as THE NICE�s take on �America�. Lee Kerslake�s drums add tragic tones to the heavy vibe of �Groozy�, and John Glascock�s bass punctuates the otherwise dry bopping of �Lady Lady�, yet on the pop side of things, the singalong-inducing �Momma I Need�, electric piano purring under the caress of vocal harmonies, sounds like a hit that never was. The band never realized their potential, so obvious here, in the last chapter of THE GODS� story, but its role as a springboard for all involved is undeniable.

Ramayana Soul Sabdatanmantra � �地獄 Scattered Purgatory God of Silver Grass

Ramayana Soul Sabdatanmantra � �地獄 Scattered Purgatory God of Silver Grass Reviewed by Nathan Ford There are few who read this rag who would doubt that we place Kikagaku Moyo at the very pinnacle of the current Japanese psychedelic scene. That being the case, its not unusual at all to discover that Guruguru Brain, the label run by Kikagaku Moyos Tomoyuki Katsurada is a veritable treasure trove of adventurous psychedelia, inhabited by names known to few in the Western world. Their first release was a wonderful and essential sampler of modern Japanese psychedelia which can still be downloaded for free here, but its two more recent releases that we concern ourselves with today. Ramayana Soul is first on the turntable, and while the band are actually Indonesian, its obvious why Katsuradas interest was peaked. "Sabdatanmantra" is a joyous wonder that perfectly illustrates the singular way in which Eastern psychedelia embraces free form spontaneity without sacrificing a tune, or in...
