Robert Wyatt - Shleep

Cover art

An album from Robert Wyatt, (arguably the founder of the Canterbury music movement) is a rare and cherished event. Since there hasn't been much heard from him in several years, one could almost...

Solarus - Empty Nature

Cover art

I suppose this would find its way into the industrial section. Solarus is Kipp Johnson (bass, synthesizer, samples) and Bill Yurkiewicz (vocal sounds) with James Plotkin guesting on guitars. There...

Space Explosion - Space Explosion

Cover art

While there is nothing on the back-tray or in the booklet (or even on the promo sheet that came with it) that indicates precisely when this was recorded, I'm certain that the label is banking...

Steve Joliffe - Zanzi & Omni

Cover art

Those who don't follow the UK electronic scene that closely may only remember Steve Joliffe as a one-time member of Tangerine Dream in the late 70s (winds, vocals, and synths on the...

Stormy Six - Macchina Maccheronica, Al Volo & Un Concerto

Cover art

One hears the term Rock in Opposition quite often in music today. Many current bands are labeled with an "RIO" style. The Italian group Stormy Six is the basis for this style termed...

Strawbs - Halcyon Days

Cover art

Perhaps Strawbs is one of the most widely misunderstood bands that ever confused and confounded fans for not conforming to preconceived (and often wildly inaccurate) expectations. When Yes fans...

Subarachnoid Space - Almost Invisible

Cover art

Subarachnoid Space is an improvisational, guitar-based San Francisco band, who basically kick ass. Almost Invisible is taken from two live shows. The first four tracks are from...

Tangerine Dream - Tournado & Oasis

Cover art

This is the kind of review that, were I reading it, would piss me off. Showing my age, my know-it-all smugness. Can you judge a band on work twenty years old? Surely the band must evolve, progress....

Tangle Edge - Tarka

Cover art

Always of interest, the Norwegian trio Tangle Edge has been around for quite a while now putting out great instrumental rock. Tarka is a worthy comeback from a band we haven't heard...

The Doors - Box Set

Cover art

The Doors, you ask? Can one appreciate modern rock poets like Peter Hammill and the Fish-fronted Marillion without acknowledging the influence they received from the charismatic vocalist Jim...

The Tannahill Weavers - Choice Cuts 87-96

Cover art

Having long been a fan of Irish and Scottish folk music I cannot believe I have never heard this band before. So for me listening to Choice Cuts was welcome indeed. This is a great album....

The Third and the Mortal - In This Room

Cover art

This is the second album with Ann-Mari Edvardson on vocals. If you have been a fan for a while, In This Room may throw you a bit. If it does, get right back on. When you first hear...

Thierry Zaboitzeff - Heartbeat - Concerto for Dance & Music Op. 1

Cover art

The de facto brain behind Art Zoyd since 1975, Thierry has now gone AWOL from that French institution, and seems to have spared nary a moment in rushing headlong into a solo career. Still, this...

Tipographica - Floating Opera

Cover art

Hate to start a review off with bad news, but sadly these guys broke up about four weeks after this excellent fourth album was released. At least they called it a day while they were still...

Tipographica - Floating Opera

Cover art

Tipographica's fourth (and supposedly last) release finds them holding true to their already-established form, but it also adds a healthy dose of something new to the mix: the use of...

Tipographica - Floating Opera

Cover art

The great Tipographica's swan song — and although I hate to say it, it's probably a good idea, since, regardless of how innovative the band really is, they seem to have been repeating...

Vangelis - 1492: Conquest of Paradise, Blade Runner, Voices & Oceanic

Cover art

I had almost left the Greek hero for dead following 1987's Direct, but five years hence Vangelis managed to rekindle the magic spark, and 1492 was the album to do it. A...
