Hatfield & The North Hatfield & The North CD (1974)

Drop album

$9.35

One of the Canterbury scene's most revered bands, Hatfield and the North made up for the brevity of their career with some fascinating music. Always adventurous, the quartet had the keen sense to realize that only the most hardened jazz fans respond to numerous key changes and exceedingly complex time signatures, and thus enlivened their live set with the odd gnome smashing, suggestive lyrics, and jokey song titles. It worked a charm, with the band quickly amassing a large, loyal ...

Van Der Graaf Generator Godbluff CD (1975) (Import) Bonus Track; Japan; Remastered; Mini LP Sleeve

$25.69
Japanese remaster in an LP-replica sleeve also features two live bonus tracks. Following the release of Pawn Hearts, bandleader Peter Hammill took time out to develop a solo career, choosing to focus his energy on darkly introspective works that seemed to be intended to examine the personal consequences of his life. When it came time for reuniting the members of Van Der Graaf, this change in direction had its effect on the band's post-1975 music. While the musical structures continued to be complex and dense, there seemed to ...

Van Der Graaf Generator H To He Who Am The Only One CD (1970) (Import) Bonus Tracks; Japan

Drop songs

$25.69
The foreboding crawl of the Hammond organ is what made Van Der Graaf Generator one of the darkest and most engrossing of all the early progressive bands. On H to He Who Am the Only One, the brooding tones of synthesizer and oscillator along with Peter Hammil's distinct and overly ominous voice make it one of this British band's best efforts. Kicking off with the prog classic "Killer," an eight minute synthesized feast of menacing tones and threatening lyrics, the album slowly becomes shadowed with Van Der Graaf's sinister instrumental moodiness. With superb percussion work via Guy Evans, who utilizes the tympani drum to its full extent, tracks like "The Emperor in His War-Room" and "Lost" are embraced with a blackened texture that ...

Soft Machine Seven CD (1974) (Import) Germany; Remastered

Drop album

$10.05
Reed player Karl Jenkins, who had joined the band on SIX, was by this time writing the bulk of the material. His pieces range from the fanfare of "Nettle Bed" to the dreamy "Carol Ann," which evokes French composer Erik Satie. Founding member (and next to depart) Mike Ratledge contributes four numbers, including the hypnotic "Tarabos," which recalls the circular melodicism of the band's first two albums. Warmly and crisply recorded, SEVEN finds drummer John Marshall on especially good form, with his cymbal work cleanly ...

Soft Machine Third CD (1970) (Import) Bonus CD; Germany; Remastered

$11.79
When Kevin Ayers left the band, Soft Machine moved into deep jazz/rock - so deep that they rarely rocked. The mercurial Robert Wyatt became occasional vocalist, although they were now effectively an instrumental unit of great originality. Third is generally regarded as their peak recording, a wandering foray using Elton Dean's soprano saxophone and Mike Ratledge's keyboards as the foundation to their sound. 'Moon In June' features Wyatt's frail, high-pitched voice, and is still talked about by cultists for the fact ...

Explorations: Classic Picante Regrooved Vol. 1 CD (2006)

Drop music CDs

$9.79

All tracks have been digitally mastered using 24-bit technology. If the point of a remix is to make something new out of something old, then Explorations: Classic Picante Regrooved surely succeeds. Here are archetypal Latin jazz sides by such giants as Tito Puente, Ray Barretto, Eddie Palmieri, Mongo Santamaria, and Cal Tjader put through the remix grinder by hot-button contemporary DJs, producers, and bands, including Thievery Corporation, Ozomatli, Dan the Automator, Los Amigos Invisibles, and Yerba Buena. In several instances, such as Thievery Corporation's remix of Barretto's "Work Song," only trace elements of the source recording are audible, yet the funky, bass-piloted dancefloor pulse that rolls over those elements casts the revision as an innovative, stand-alone entity that doesn't borrow so much as pay homage. Whether reconsidered as a chillout groove or a fiery, pounding assault, the re-creations -- some with new vocals added -- profess reverence for and make reference to the masters, but stop short of bowing down at their altars. If, however, ...

Music that wonât make you want to throw your kidâs CD out the car window.Children's music is rapidly growing in popularity around the world. Family recording group Einstein's Monkey sinks their roots deep into the musical soil on their debut CD "banana yellow" to develop a recording project as big and complex as a beautiful old oak tree.Veteran musicians Jeff Hofmann and B Bagby started playing together in the late 1980s before eventually each going their own way to explore Jazz, Rock, Folk, and World music in their own projects. Brought back together by parenthood and a series of lucky moves in early 2003, Bagby and Hofmann have been performing and teaching as Einstein's Monkey in schools, festivals and libraries ever since.The recording "banana yellow" unabashedly appeals to the parents that grew up on the various alt-rock scenes of the '70s through the '90s. ...
