Frank Zappa - 200 Motels

Cover art

It's been a long time waiting for this one; apparently MGM owned the rights and had, to date, refused to license its reissue. Well, I guess all the legal crap resolved itself finally because...

French TV - Live: Yoo Hoo

Cover art

French TV is a real American anachronism: a complex unit (with their unique brand of improvisation) based in the heart of country music land: Louisville. Live they play their own refined style,...

Gilgamesh - Gilgamesh

Cover art

I hate to admit it, but this is one English import LP I just plain loved for the album cover alone, an amusing rock 'n roll version of the children's game Snakes and Ladders (e.g.—...

Greg Klamt - Fluxus Quo

Cover art

I wasn't sure if I liked this one at first — my electronic tastes run more into the spacier/ambient fields — yet Spotted Peccary have a way of portraying artists whose more...

Greg Klamt - Fluxus Quo

The only constant is change itself. Such it is with Klamt's second outing, and follow-up to his 1993 debut, Fulcrum. While the earlier could have easily been described as "Berlin...

Greg Klamt - Fluxus Quo

Grobschnitt - Jumbo

Cover art

At last available, one of Grobschnitt's touchstone symphonic albums, and (until now) one of the missing links of their 70s plateau (Merry-Go-Round is the other — it still eludes...

Heretic - Drugging for M

Cover art

Like Spacious Mind on downers, Drugging for M features a ridiculously extended 34-minute track of hypnotic synth effects and spacy guitar noodling. One can at least compliment this album...

Heretic - Drugging for M

Cover art

While only containing one track (the first track is multimedia CD-ROM for Mac/Win95), Drugging for M is certainly something to get excited about. It's not hard to see why these guys...
