Buckethead - Colma

Cover art

You really have to ask yourself: what kind of credible artist wears a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket on his head and a Friday the 13th mask? Most people would think he must be somewhat of...

Caravan - Songs for Oblivion Fishermen

Cover art

Caravan’s legacy as a key Canterbury band is well noted in their extensive catalog ranging from 1969 to present day. What has been seriously lacking is the live-in-studio BBC recordings which...

Citizen Cain - Raising the Stones

Cover art

From the ashes of SI Records, Xitizen Cain (formerly known as Citizen Cain) has returned after a 3-4 year absence with a new album. The band has slimmed down a lot since

Citizen Cain - Raising the Stones

Cover art

You know I don't really like this vocalist — his delivery lacks distinctiveness, it's like listening to Fish without feeling. When there are this many lyrics, you have to have a...

Curlew - Fabulous Drop

Cover art

Raw, jazzy, abrasive, avant, noisy, and yet oddly smooth. That's Curlew rapped up in a nutshell. Led by the blaring sax musings of George Cartwright, Curlew forges on strongly with this new...

Didkovsky / MacLean / Vrtacek - Flies in the Face of Logic

Cover art

This disc is sectioned into three distinct perspectives of composition, using an unfamiliar primary instrument for each composer: the piano. First up is Steve MacLean, who in the course of four...

Dixie Dregs - King Biscuit Flower Hour Presents

Cover art

For a band that was fairly prolific during the late 70s and early 80s, it is interesting that the Dregs never released a full-length live album of that period of the band. Sure, Night of the...

Dixie Dregs - The Great Spectacular

Cover art

Finally... After more than 20 years, the legendary original "unreleased" Dregs album has been officially released on CD. Of the ten tracks on The Great Spectacular, nine were...

Eela Craig - Eela Craig

Cover art

This is the album that brings up the inevitable statement, "I thought One Niter was their first album." We all did for many years, and in many ways the differences are large...

Elton Dean / Paul Dunmall - If Dubois Only Knew

Cover art

Two seasoned British sax players: just them, no keyboard, guitar, bass, or drums for accompaniment. Uh-oh! Eight songs of duets and free jazz performance? God, I need some Tylenol, just thinking...

Emerson Lake & Palmer - King Biscuit Flower Hour

Cover art

Having had the original FM broadcast of this much bootlegged performance there are no surprises here for me. However this has always been one of my favorite live tapes. It's a highly edited...

Forgas Band Phenomena - Roue Libre

Cover art

One of life's little pleasures is to be on the receiving end of a pleasant surprise. I originally ordered this CD in order to support the tireless efforts of Aymeric Leroy, publisher of the...

Forgas Band Phenomena - Roue Libre

Cover art

Patrick Forgas is the leader of a six-piece ensemble who draws heavily from 70s European fusion on the group’s first album. It’s a drummer’s project with a loving nod toward Soft...

Galadriel - Mindscapers

Jesús Filardi's third work under the moniker of Galadriel has blossomed from the promised potential of their previous two Musea albums. Unlike solo projects which masquerade as real...

Galadriel - Mindscapers

Cover art

Galadriel - Mindscapers

Cover art

For some reason this neoprog concept album keeps conjuring up somewhat misplaced visions of Queensrÿche's Operation Mindcrime with each listen. Perhaps it's the allusive...

Gentle Giant - King Biscuit Flower Hour

Cover art

Gentle Giant as a live touring band (1970-1980) was always in a period of transition and refinement. The group would craft a challenging album from the palette of musical ideas by Kerry Minnear and...

Gentle Giant - Under Construction

Cover art
