Quintessence Spirits From Another Time 1969 71 uk based international multicultural trippy psych prog rock 2016 double disc set

Quintessence Spirits From Another Time 1969 71 uk based international multicultural trippy psych prog rock 2016 double disc set Formed in fashionable Ladbroke Grove in 1969, this international six-piece played extended, improvisatory compositions highlighted by lengthy guitar solos, flute, sitar and communal, Indian-inspired chanting. They took on Eastern names to match their philosophies, with Australian flautist and founder Ronald Rothfield becoming Raja Ram, for example, and American bassist Richard Vaughan known as Shambhu Babaji. Far from a niche, underground concern, however, Quintessence quickly signed to Island after a major-label bidding war, and soon appeared frequently in the music weeklies, and even live on BBC2 and in Nicolas Roeg�s Glastonbury Fayre. Across five studio albums, ranging from 1969�s In Blissful Company to 1972�s Indweller, they journeyed into their own groovy mysticism, lyrically paying as much heed to St Pancras and Ladbroke Grove as to Mount Kailash and va...

Pugma Ho! Pugma Ho! 1969 2004 uk rough downer rock with experimental mood 2004 release

Pugma Ho! Pugma Ho! 1969 2004 uk rough downer rock with experimental mood 2004 release It started in 1968 as a Jo Wright Art School band the Incas with Chris Camm guitar and Dave Coxon bass joined eventually by Keith Gotheridge on drums and Cliffe Simms on keyboards playing pop around the local pubs and clubs.  As the band moved towards the rock influences we decided to recruit vocalist Bev Staley who promised to be a good front man.  Bevs arrival was soon followed by Cliffs departure as the bands influences started to change.  With original material and a heavier rock sound it was decided a name change was called for, Pugma-Ho (kiss my arse, in Gaelic)  was born.   We started to establish ourselves on the rock circuit, playing the top London gigs like The Marquee Club, The Temple, The Roundhouse and The Greyhound.  We also played several gigs at the Liverpool Cavern rock nights, usually followed by gigs at Liverpools Mardi Gras.  In 1972  we were...

The Climax Blues Band Plays On 1969 uk outstanding blues rock with experimental mood 2013 remaster and expanded

The Climax Blues Band Plays On 1969 uk outstanding blues rock with experimental mood 2013 remaster and expanded Britains Climax Blues Band didnt waste any time following up their self-titled debut in 1969 (dropping the moniker The Climax Chicago Blues Band), as they once again entered EMIs Abbey Road studios and put together Plays On, a highly adventurous and varied affair that saw plenty of new elements starting to creep into their once straight Chicago styled blues sound. The band had then slimmed down to a five-piece, consisting of Colin Cooper (vocals, sax, harmonica, bamboo whistle), Peter Haycock (guitars, vocals), Arthur Wood (keyboards), Derek Holt (bass, Mellotron), and George Newsome (drums). It was at this juncture that the band started to experiment with rock and jazz, and mixed with their already formidable blues chops the results on Plays On are quite spectacular. Esoteric Recordings continues on with the CBB reissues, giving this one stellar, crystal clear sound and anot...

The Pandamonium The Unreleased Album 1969 uk outstanding psych folk rock 2004 release

The Pandamonium The Unreleased Album 1969 uk outstanding psych folk rock 2004 release Singers/guitarists Martin Curtis and Bob Poton started their professional musical careers in 1963 as members of the beat band The Pandas.  By 1966 theyd expanded their line up to include Kent Mick Glass and drummer Steve Chapman.  Theyd also opted for a name change, dropping The Pandas for the hipper Pandamonium. Produced by Shel Talmy and Hugh Murphy, the collection found the duo supported by members of Fairport Convention/Fotheringay (Jerry Donahue, Gerry Conway and Tim Donaldson) and Heads, Hands and Feet (Albert Lee and Chas Hodges).  Musically the album was quite different from the earlier "Thoughts & Words" release.  Whereas the former sported a distinctive reflective folk feel, material like I Know You, the Badfinger-ish Sunrise and Sit and Watch the Sunshine showcased a far more commercial and up-tempo pop feel.   Showcasing all original material, the pair had a cle...

The Mandrake Memorial 3 Part Inventions 1969 us exceptional psych prog rock 2016 release

The Mandrake Memorial 3 Part Inventions 1969 us exceptional psych prog rock 2016 release The lost, third studio album from 1969 by this quite good psychedelic / proto-progressive band. An absolutely worthwhile release for fans of music of this era. �Having made two superb psychedelic albums and gigged with The Doors, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, The Velvet Underground and many others, in June of 1969, The Mandrake Memorial came to London. The plan was to record with famed producer Shel Talmy (The Kinks, The Who, Pentangle), but when that fell through, they persevered alone. Long thought to be lost, 3 Part Inventions anticipates the woozy, dream-like vibe of their 1970 masterpiece Puzzle, combining eerie vocals, trippy guitar and otherworldly electronics to create a unique whole. Transferred directly from the master tape, its released here for the first time, together with a detailed band history, rare images, two previously unheard outtakes from a 1969 acetate, and a rare radio interview.�...

Rationals The Rationals 1969 us stunning detroit r n b garage rock 2011 extra tracks remaster

Rationals The Rationals 1969 us stunning detroit r n b garage rock 2011 extra tracks remaster At the time of the album�s release, Detroit rock was epitomised by the Grande Ballroom and the powerful sounds of the groups associated with it, such as the MC5, Stooges, SRC, Amboy Dukes and Frost. The Rationals were younger than the majority of the musicians in these groups, and they ploughed their own rock/RnB furrow, resisting the heavyweight arrangements deemed mandatory, and eschewing the fashionable hirsute image of the time for a neat, latter-day mod look. Not that the Rationals were unpopular at the �high energy� Grande � far from it. The group appeared as a regular, and no doubt refreshing, alternative to the bluster of many of their harder-edged contemporaries. Their classic 1969 single �Guitar Army� became an anthem of sorts for Detroit rock, with its universal truth that seemed to have been submerged in the overheated revolutionary rhetoric of the time � that the music was the mes...

The British North American Act In The Beginning 1969 canada uk eminent garage acid psych

The British North American Act In The Beginning 1969 canada uk eminent garage acid psych Named for an act of British Parliament that helped establish the Canadian constitution, the British North-American Act were, fittingly enough, comprised of musicians from both Canada and the U.K. (though in the true spirit of internationalism, keyboard man Andy Bator was born in Hungary), and their sole album, originally released in 1969, is a gentle and likable fusion of folk-rock and psychedelia, with a bit of garage rock creeping in around the edges. "Joe Cool" is a swaggering tale of a self-styled ladies man that wouldnt seem at all out of place on a vintage garage rock playlist (especially with Bob Allens primal guitar work), and "If Youre Looking for Honey" covers similar musical ground, but most of the album follows a gentler and trippier path, especially the sunny "Corduroy Coat," the languid and low-key "The World Would Understand," the baroque pop e...

Pussy Pussy Plays 1969

Pussy Pussy Plays 1969 Sea en los a�os 60 o en la actualidad, las probabilidades de �xito comercial de una banda auto gestionada y promovida por un sello discogr�fico chico y sin experiencia (y adem�s para el colmo la banda con un nombre horrible) son pr�cticamente nulas pero sin embargo no quita que se trate de una excelente y original propuesta musical. Pussy  fue una banda formada en la peque�a ciudad de Hertfordshire, Inglaterra, que luego de haber pasado varios a�os modificando no solo sus p�simos nombres como �The Creepers � y �We shake milk� si no tambi�n su est�tica y estilo musical, ya para fines de la d�cada del 60 incorporaron al ex miembro del grupo pop �Fortes Mentum� Danny Beckerman quien se hizo cargo de la producci�n y composici�n en la banda, cabe destacar que tambi�n ten�a fuertes conexiones con el estudio Morgan Blue Town en Londres  en el cual la banda grab� y public� su �nico disco; Despu�s de eso la banda se desintegr� y fin de la historia, ahora repasemo...

The Merchants Of Dream Strange Night Voyage 1969

The Merchants Of Dream Strange Night Voyage 1969 Este trabajo fue concebido por el compositor Jack Murphy y el productor Vinny Testa, con la idea de elaborar un proyecto algo divertido y creativo, que finalmente terminar�a encaminado hacia un lado infantil y fant�stico, un trabajo conceptual elaborado en base a la idea de Peter Pan y de la ni�ez perpetua, con su correspondiente magia, inocencia, fantas�a, ausencia de malicia, etc., aunque adaptado desde la visi�n contracultural de los j�venes de los 60s que se revelaban contra la formalidad y la moralidad de las sociedades acomodadas.  Se trata de otro disco particular, no f�cil de escuchar, en el cual tampoco encontraremos temas que se volver�n nuestros favoritos, es una obra muy particular de pop con arreglos orquestales, experimental si tenemos en cuenta que es un trabajo conceptual con un sonido poco com�n. Una vez elaborado el material, se lo muestran al productor George �Shadow� Morton, quien ve potencial en el sonido y consi...

Renaissance Renaissance 1969 uk great prog jazz rock with classical influence 2008 remaster

Renaissance Renaissance 1969 uk great prog jazz rock with classical influence 2008 remaster The history of Renaissance is essentially the history of two separate groups, rather similar to the two phases of the Moody Blues or the Drifters. The original group was founded in 1969 by ex-Yardbirds members Keith Relf and Jim McCarty as a sort of progressive folk-rock band, who recorded two albums (of which only the first, self-titled LP came out in America, on Elektra Records) but never quite made it, despite some success on Englands campus circuit.  The band went through several membership changes, with Relf and his sister Jane (who later fronted the very Renaissance-like Illusion) exiting and McCarty all but gone after 1971. The new lineup formed around the core of bassist Jon Camp, keyboard player John Tout, and Terry Sullivan on drums, with Annie Haslam, an aspiring singer with operatic training and a three-octave range.  The original groups debut album was a then-groundbreaking...

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

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 �W...
