KRAAN
Das Wormser Mozartsaal
Worms, Germany
May 5th 2023

Remastered audience recording.
I always wonder if  'Dinner for Two' was inspired by Dinner for One:























Something many readers will, no doubt, be very familiar with
as it has been shown every New Year's Eve on German TV since 1972
and several other countries have also adopted this tradition.

Jane
Großer Sendesaal des WDR
Köln, Germany
January 8th 1977

Reposted from July 2024

Remastered WDR broadcast.
Jane were formed in Hanover, Germany around 1970.
All 70s German groups get saddled with the Krautrock label
(except for the Scorpions, also from Hanover)
but Jane's music is psychedelia with Pink Floyd stylings.
Keyboardist Werner Nadolny and drummer Peter Panka
currently front rival versions of the band.

David Roter Method
They Made Me (mp3)

AI Overview:
"They Made Me" is the name of an album by David Roter Method.
It is a 14-song album within the genres of children's music and rock music.

This is NOT suitable for children!
Roter was an irreverent poet/songwriter probably best known
for co-writing Joan Crawford and Unknown Tongue with Blue Öyster Cult.
Members of BÖC, Dictators and other New York luminaries appear on his records.
I am looking for the 'Find Something Beautiful' album
so if anyone could share that one I'd be very grateful.

BTW I checked out what AI says about me: (the 'newer releases' are not mine)
AI Overview:
Titus Luxor appears to be a musical artist known for creating music
since the late 1980s. He self-deprecatingly describes his early work as low-fi,
recorded in a spare bedroom with limited equipment and talent.
He released several albums before joining a band in the early 1990s
to gain live performance experience.
More recently, he acquired a new studio and is planning a comeback album.
He also has some newer releases, including "Summon Luxo/Silly Youth"
and "Battle Crux/Emperor Walk", available on Bandcamp. 
In addition to his musical endeavours, Titus Luxor may also be a character
or a reference within the context of a game or community,
possibly related to the Steam game "Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr"
where a character named Titus is accused of corruption,
according to a Steam Community discussion. 
Luxor also refers to a city in Egypt, formerly known as Thebes
and other names, with the name Luxor meaning "palaces" in Arabic. 

AI is super fast at scanning the web and making connections.
It learns as it goes. Pretty soon it will know your shoe size.

Reposted from August 2020

Hailing from Canada, Mystery are a very good band.
I have seen them play twice.
In Chepstow and at NOTP.
Benoît David was their singer for a long time before he was coaxed away by Yes.
I prefer them with current singer Jean Pageau.
This is an excellent sounding recording.

Beat Club
Episode 62
December 31st 1970

New Year's Eve 1970...hmmm, got me reminiscing.
My Mum would exit via the back door just before midnight.
Many others of her generation would do the same
before navigating their way to the front of their houses.
After the stroke of midnight/neighbourly good wishes
they would then re-enter via the front door.
This tradition was "bringing in the New Year"..it died out.

The Wild Man Fischer/Zappa clip alone is worth the download
but the whole episode is excellent IMO.

Progglådan Box B: CD 207
Instrumentala, Experimentella, Urproggare samt Punk
Kornet/De Gladas Kapell/Jukka Tolonen Band/Alfons Bandage

Four more gems from the Swedish archives.
This one starts off superbly and only gets better.

Kornet
If you like Chick Corea/Al Di Meola/RTF you may like this band.




















De Gladas Kapell
I've posted their only album previously. Great stuff.











Jukka Tolonen Band
Another recording with Coste Apetrea. Sublime.
























Alfons Bandage seem particularly obscure.
The line-up includes notable trombonist Nils Landgren
a.k.a. The Man with the Red Horn.
Zappaesque and quite brilliant.

Genesis
Mock Turtle

Reposted from May 2023

Nothing here that most Genesis fans will not already have.
It's just a compilation I made donkey's years ago.
One of my reconstructed/fake concerts with some 'standard' bonus tracks.



























The 'Genesis Live' album is brilliant but I don't go back to it much
because it seems so fragmented and short.
They should have made it a triple album!
This, for me, is a much more attractive listening experience.

Goat
Pukkelpop Festival
Domein Kiewit
Hasselt, Belgium
August 21st 2015

I'm not sure about the origins of this recording.
Here's my remastered version.
Goat are an alternative/avant band from Sweden who wear costumes and masks.
Like a hippy Slipknot.























They specialise in a mix of anonymity and self-mythologising.
Their music is groove-based and infectious, having a 'tribal' feel
which reminds me of Hawkwind or Ozric Tentacles,
combined with B52s/Bananarama style vocals.
Never heard of Goat? I think a lot of you will enjoy them.

Magma
Newport Jazz Festival
Philharmonic Hall
New York City
July 7th 1973

Slightly tweaked soundboard.
Medium quality.
Looks like it has been mp3 in a previous incarnation.
One of the very few French outfits who made an impact.
Magma are the brainchild of drummer Christian Vander
who is a somewhat controversial figure.
He invented Kobaian, a language which is the basis of the 'lyrics'.
Some people think the sun shines out of his arse.
Vander's particular take on prog/jazz/fusion, known as 'Zeuhl',
has now become a recognised genre in itself.
