From the opening track, "Watussi," which pans back and forth between left and right channels, Harmonia's 1974 debut plays like a classic headphone album. The band was a krautrock supergroup composed of Neu!'s Michael Rother and Cluster's Dieter Moebius and Hans Joachim Roedelius (on later albums they'd be joined by Brian Eno), and the re-release of this long-forgotten recording is cause for celebration amongst fans of early electronica and sedate but imaginative post-rock.
Declared "world's most important rock group" by Brian Eno in the mid-'70s, Harmonia started off as a side project of the members of krautrock duo Cluster and Michael Rother of Neu!. Recorded at Cluster's studio in the tiny village of Forst, "Musik Von Ha

Purchase Musik Von Harmonia CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Chills Kaleidoscope World CD (1986) (Import) Import; Australia
Musik Von Harmonia
 $23.75
KALEIDOSCOPE WORLD contains 10 bonus tracks and represents everything the band recorded through early 1986, including all of the LOST EP, and the I LOVE MY LEATHER JACKET/THE GREAT ESCAPE 12"
KALEIDOSCOPE WORLD, The Chills' 18-track compilation culled from The Chills early and mid-'80s EPs and singles, is highlighted by the song "Pink Frost."
The Chills' Martin Phillipps mixes up melodic pop with elements of garage rock and punk, creating songs with a sweet melancholy all their own. Phillipps has always been the focus of the Chills, writing and singing the band's songs. His group has also rivaled Menudo in its sheer number of personnel changes. In a just world, the ...

Musik Von Harmonia
$25.39
The sheer toughness -- and overall derivative -- nature of Killing Floor's debut album, issued six months after Led Zeppelin's debut in 1969 on the Spark label, is a wondrous contrast to the overly slick treatment American blues were given by British artists. All of these tunes, with the exception of one, are revamped versions of songs from the blues canon with different words. The lone "cover" in the set was written by Willie Dixon titled "Woman You Need Love," the tune Zep ripped for "Whole Lotta Love." Despite the fact that this set was issued before by Repertoire, the Akarma version is definitive in that it features the original ...
| | Danny Kirwan Second Chapter CD (1975) With Book; Limited Edition; Digipak
Musik Von Harmonia
$19.79 
The first solo album from Fleetwood Mac singer/songwriter Daniel David Kirwan has the future producer for Human League and Buzzcocks, Martin Rushent, utilizing those skills here, as well as engineering. The sound is crystal clear, and a feather in the cap for Rushent as well as Kirwan. It starts off with an uncharacteristic "Ram Jam City," which has more Lindsey Buckingham sounds than one would expect, especially since the two guitarists come from two different musical worlds. "Odds and Ends" is more lighthearted, the kind of music Paul McCartney toyed with on The White Album's "Rocky Raccoon." What Second Chapter immediately sets forth is the importance of Kirwan as a pop artist, and how, despite Fleetwood Mac's success after he left, his ...
| | Legend CD (2007) (Import) With Book; Limited Edition; Digipak; Germany
Musik Von Harmonia
$25.69
In some circles, Mickey Jupp is something of a minor legend, a roots rocker with excellent taste and a cutting wit, best heard on the songs "Switchboard Susan" and "You'll Never Get Me Up in One of Those," both covered by Nick Lowe. Basher's endorsement is a clear indication that Jupp is a pub rocker, a guy who specializes in laid-back good times, so it shouldn't come as a great surprise that his first band, Legend, was proto-pub, an unabashed celebration of old-time rock & roll, filled with three-chord Chuck Berry rockers and doo wop backing vocals. Nevertheless, listening to their 1970 LP is a bit of a shock, as it's ...

Musik Von Harmonia
$16.29
Led by former Brand X fretless bassist Percy Jones, this maddeningly creative, wild, and sometimes experimental trio makes no bones about its desire to carry on in the hardcore jazz fusion traditions of the risk-taking era of Miles Davis, Mahavishnu Orchestra, and Tony Williams. They're very good natured about the sacrifice of possible commerce for art's sake. In their liner notes, they actually say something about the recording containing tonal nastiness, dissonance, harmonic and rhythmic abstraction, distortion, and "other forms of sonic weirdness." They warn people under the influence of smooth jazz not to listen! All tongue-in-cheekness aside, what they're really doing is celebrating in modern terms an era where musicality was more appreciated than catchy melodies and radio-ready running times. MIDI vibist Marc Wagnon wrote the brooding, ...
| | Benny Carter Another Time, Another Place CDs (1996)
Musik Von Harmonia
$20.29
Alto saxophonists Benny Carter and Phil Woods were great friends and enjoyed playing together on a number of record dates, though this double-CD live recording from a 1996 extended gig at the Regattabar proved to be the former's final release before he retired from active performing a few years afterward. A few months shy of 89 years old at the time, Carter still gives his all on his instrument and sounds like someone decades younger, while Woods' naturally more outgoing style proves complementary to the senior musician. Backed by a strong rhythm section, including Carter's long-time pianist Chris Neville, bassist John Lockwood, and drummer Sherman Ferguson, the two saxophonists have a ball as they play favorite standards, several Carter compositions, and gems penned by other jazz musicians. While fans of Carter and Woods will be delighted with this entire release, there are a few surprises. Carter's bluesy feature of "Willow Weep for Me" marks the only time he ever recorded it. The duo's robust, swinging setting of "On the Sunny Side of the Street" is a gem, as is Carter's swaggering "A Walkin' Thing." Beautifully recorded, this final meeting between Benny Carter and Phil Woods is one for the ages. ...
