Only his third session as a leader, 1961's WE FREE KINGS finds multi-instrumentalist Roland Kirk (he added the Rahsaan in 1969) transplanted to New York from his native Midwest and signed to Mercury Records, where he'd remain for the next seven years. With this classic album, Kirk shook off detractors who dismissed him as a novelty (for his revival of the vaudeville trick of playing up to three reeds at once) and established himself as a paragon of modern jazz.

Beginning with a typically idiosyncratic reworking of Coltrane's "Blues for Alice," Kirk only occasionally steps into the free jazz style implied by the album's title, notably on the first recorded version of his legendary multi-horn showcase "Three for the Festival." Recorded in two different no-nonsense trio settings, WE FREE KINGS showcases Kirk's astonishingly varied brilliance in a suitably stripped-down context. Different CD editions of this album contain various outtakes and alternate takes.

Set in 1962; Produced and released in 1973. AMERICAN GRAFFITI presents a powerful collage of youth on the brink of maturity just before the assassination of J.F.K.. Based on George Lucas's own teenage hot-rodding days in Modesto, California, this brilliant, bittersweet comedy inspired numerous other productions, including the long-running TV series HAPPY DAYS. Lucas's second feature film (following THX 1138), AMERICAN GRAFFITI contains an early screen appearance by Harrison Ford, who would figure heavily in the director's next movie, the sci-fi ...

Infinite Space is a concept album of Ambient Soundscapes with a theme of Space and Infinity. Sometimes dark these tracks each take you on a journey only limited by your own imagination.The music has often been likened to Klaus Schulze due to its experimental nature but also has influences like the music of Steve Roach and John Serrie.Most of these tracks have “Zero Beats” and are pure ambient in nature. The absence of percussion and basslines actually adds to the music. The mind seems to create it’s own subconscious pulse that makes the music flow. Also the absence of rhythms makes the sounds breathe and stand out in clarity. Many of the listeners have said that there is a real feeling of Space in these tracks and that you feel as if you are actually there floating in Space.The sounds you will hear are incredible ethereal pads that morph into each other seamlessly creating spacial harmonies, Sometimes parts of the tune will become more ambient and experimental with some unheard before sequences and effects that have been specially created for these tracks.The use of completely original sounds and the production techniques used is the strength that has made Global Trancemission a firm favourite amongst many of the other internet based musicians.Here are some of the reviews about these tracks:SYNGULARITY said about PULSAR:Waiting for this... and now we have it: chilling music created by an incredible sound wizard!"Pulsar" follows the path of the pioneers like Klaus Schulze - with the sound of today!Dark and bright though, this inner space travel is, almost too exciting for a meditative time.We're travelling with this cluster of unearthly, beautiful-mysterious pads, falling deeper and deeper towards the center of the galaxy. INGROWN said about PULSAR:What a journey! This isnt as cold as Cryogenic sleep, it explores more of the warmer regions of the galaxies. An immaculate mix with great chord progressions and unreal ambience and depth. The atmosphere is absolutely hypnotizing. The tune is flowing smoothly and effortlessly, it is progressing and changing almost subconsciously. The changes in sound texture, the different chord progressions, the pitch-bending, everything is in perfect harmony! ENKEYE said about LUNAR SUNRISEMornings never felt better than watching from the moon. Just like the surface this track is weightless, gently floating from one glorious point to the next. You can almost feel those rays. NIGEL POTTER said about STARCRUISER :Man ...
