Various Artists - Tekito Split Volume 1

Cover art

A sampler from the same label that gives you Vas Deferens Organization and others, this CD however features none of those names that I previously associated with Tekito. So in a way (from my point...

Various Artists - The Sky Goes All the Way Home

Cover art

I'm always amazed at the outpouring of perceived "stingy" artists who rally around children in need. Ashley Franklin performed a great deal of groundwork gathering many notable UK...

Various Artists - To Canterbury and Beyond - A Tribute to the Canterbury Scene

Cover art

Mellow boards the Canterbury bandwagon by presenting a highly convoluted set of artists doing renditions of 70s material. Most of this label's tributes have been underwhelming endeavors with...

Volapük - Polyglöt

Cover art

I believe the third studio outing under the Volapük name for Guigou Chenevier is also the best one. Much of what he concocts here strikes me more as something I would expect from an Eastern...

White Willow - Sacrament

Cover art

I wouldn’t recommend resetting the volume in the first few minutes of starting this disc, else you risk blowing out your speakers at the first of many dynamic transitions from soft to...

Folk Music Has No Borders —
The Annbørg Lien Interview

Cover art

The hardanger fiddle is sometimes called Norway's national instrument. I don't know if that designation is official or not, but certainly, of all the instruments played in Norwegian folk music, the hardanger is special.

I'll See Your Kenso and Raise a Banco —
LA's Progfest 2000

Cover art 2000 is the year that Progfest moved back to LA, and back under the stewardship of its founders Greg Walker and David Overstreet. The seeds for its return were no doubt planted in '99 when Banco's appearance at the "International Progressive Music Festival (formerly Progfest)" was cancelled after it was already announced. Many had planned on attending and purchased tickets based solely on the Italian legends' playing that weekend. I hope that if another IPMF happens in SF that some better judgement will prevail in that regard, although promoter Shawn Ahearn must be given credit for getting Magma over here for the first time in over 25 years, and giving Bondage Fruit their American debut.  » Read more

Trampled Underfoot —
The John Paul Jones Interview

Cover art Exposé caught up with John Paul Jones, accomplished bassist and keyboardist with Led Zeppelin in support of his live tour for Zooma, his first DGM release. Jones wore many hats in his Zep days as well as since those golden money making years. Since his last appearance with Page and Plant at the Princes Trust in the early nineties, he's expanded his resume by doing arrangements for artists as well known as REM and unknown as Elephant Ride. Somehow during this interim, it became clear that the man had his own musical statement and identity to put forward. Just how to do it was part of the question set I passed by the very friendly Englishman late last fall [2000].  » Read more
