In the concert, Manço and Kurtalan Express mostly present songs fromtheir new LP called "2023" which had not been released in that period. During the concert the group displays an eclectic sound from space rock to psychedelic funk which are blended with Turkish traditional music and a mystical atmosphere. 500 copies only, blue vinyl and with liner notes. Sound quality is not perfect but more than enjoyable. A fantastic piece of Turkish rock history! - From the same labels that bought you Cem Karaca & Kardaslar. FIVE COPIES LEFT http://www.freakemporium.com/archive/release/BALP043/releasepage.html Barış Manço (also spelt Baris Mancho in some European album releases) (January 2, 1943 - February 1, 1999) was a Turkish singer, composer, television producer and celebrity. He composed about 200 songs, some of which were translated into a variety of languages including English, Japanese, Greek, Bulgarian, Romanian, Persian and Arabic. He was, and still is, one of the most beloved public figures of Turkey. a1 - Intro (2:32) a5 - Yol Verin Agalar Beyler link in comments Posted by Munju @ 1:56 PM 1:56 PM | Permalink | 5 comments A local Hawaii folk/rural album.

His backing bands over the years include Apaslar, Kardaslar, Mogollar and Dervisan. "Apaslar, like many bands of the 60's, started as clones of the Shadows but gradually developed into an innovative instrumental rock band from '67 onwards. Their collaborations with Cem put them up at the top of the Turkish pop charts and this led to great success in Germany" G.A. & J.D. "Cem Karaca's early band was another reference to The Shadows Apaslar - The Apaches! The Apaches were probably named after The Shadows's big hit Apache." Can Altinbay" Can Altinbay In 2001 Cem Karaca started working with Kurtalan Ekspres, Bari Manço's backing band from the 70's, and he still performed regularly in 2002 in Istanbul as well as in other Turkish cities. He occasionally plays in western Europe and had a visit to Australia planned for December 2002. Since 2003 he had a new backing band. In 2004 Cem sadly passed away. http://progressive.homestead.com/Cem_Karaca.html 01 - Lümüne (4:51) 01 - Lümüne Thanks to Antony :) link in comments Posted by Munju @ 1:35 AM 1:35 AM | Permalink | 10 comments He played melancholic and thoughtful folk-rock with Swedish lyrics.

It was very fast to be gone. We cannot forget his wildness and smile. Gran parte de la percusión presentada en este CD es coreana, pero los instrumentos melódicos son saxofones y trompetas; Kang Unil aparece con el haegum.

Originally released in 1982 by Vertigo this is a very rare album nowadays. Progressive, space rock, psychedelic, Byzantine and mid-eastern elements create the ultimate Greek "rock" album, as many prog-minds around the world declare. The lyrics based on the "Apocalypse of John" and the "Prophecies of Ezekiel". The surprise is the "GASPAR", which accompanies this album. It was a privately pressed 7" EP, released in 1979 as a limited edition of 1000 copies and it had been distributed by the band through their gigs. Nowadays, it's an ultra rarity and almost impossible to find a copy. It contains 4 tracks, all self-penned and sung in English and it's closer to the late 60's - early 70's psychedelic music than to the "Armageddon's" space progressivism. It has never been rereleased in any format. This is an official reissue. From the master-tapes. Exact reproduction of the gatefold cover and the Vertigo labels. Includes extra 2-pages insert with photos and the reproduction of an original full-coloured poster which announces the just-released (!!!) album by Vertigo back in 1981. Yet, the set contains the ULTRA RARE, 4-tracks,7" EP "Gaspar", made by the band in 1979. With its original B/W picture sleeve, this 7" re-release is licenced by P.L.J Band members. 500 copies. http://www.shinybeast.nl/catalog/view.php?item_id=319408 More info here http://www.termitesband.com/ http://www.myspace.com/termitesgr 01.

Well its not something special not so progressive it is an ordinary late sixties hammon organ album. If you have heard Merit Hemingsson's early album that is what this album sounds like, cool cocktailparty music. The best song is Dynamite that also appears on some collection but also the Beatles cover is pretty good.

Posted by nahavanda @ 6:43 PM 6:43 PM | Permalink | 3 comments "Very little info on this musician. The first album: sort of spacey sound, with lots of echoing guitar work, a bit similar to Richard Pinhas in style (who also co-produced the album). The second I know nothing about. Back And In Again: here we have participations from Patrick Gauthier, Benoit Widemann and Richard Pinhas. Guy Delacroix plays bass (he will later appear on Jean-Michel Jarre's Revolutions). The style is reportedly more Jazz-Rock than EM, but with already three Heldon dudes giving a hand you can't go wrong, can you?." review taken from http://www.pugachov.ru/eem/rafram.html back cover seems more interesting than the front, and the music: is nice!
thanks to my friend gilles :) Posted by nahavanda @ 10:29 PM 10:29 PM | Permalink | 4 comments the only english review that i found at google -taken from ebay vinyl listings-; not my rip, nor my friends, it may also be sent to other blogs as well, i knew the name of the band for a long time, but i was somehow expecting that this band is yet another boring flower power pop/beat, i was wrong, i cant stop myself to listen some songs over and over again, there are 3 more albums from same band which i would like to listen, if any friend have them, make me happy :) well Enjoy!

Enjoy! Posted by nahavanda @ 5:02 AM 5:02 AM | Permalink | 5 comments Ohhh no not a boring north american heavy rock band again! You think, but I think you should give this band a chance. They mix some kind of Heavy rock with a slightley Jethro Tull feeling one some tracks. I get a feeling that they didn't know what kind of music they wanted to play. Some tracks have flute and saxophone and some have riffing guitars. How ever a really good album my favourit tracks are "Sundown" and " Seventeen" the song "I got you" have marvelous guitar solo and a cool cembalo and organ ackompained. So please enjoy this legendary Parrot label release. This is their first album Chilliwack is a little bit confusing becuse both their first and second album are self titled.

15. ΒΛΕΠΩ ΜΟΡΦΕΣ... Thanks to antony :) Posted by Munju @ 3:54 PM 3:54 PM | Permalink | 2 comments hi folks, DL link in comments Posted by fildiferro @ 2:38 PM 2:38 PM | Permalink | 4 comments Strange album that mix medieval elements with progressive and then add a drone feeling (maybe the first real drone album?). Abelard & Heloise was the first of two soundtracks to have been commissioned from Third Ear Band; the other was forRoman Polanski's Macbeth. Abelard & Heloise was recorded in 1970 for a film made for release on German television based on the great medieval love story. Like most of their work, this album features the improvised chamber music Third Ear Band developed during the 1970s. While this album is heavy on the hypnotic drone, there are several nice melodic improvisatory sequences, especially on tracks two and five. It's also worth noting that they go don't period with their music for this period film. Simply as a part of a genre, this soundtrack departs significantly from what one expects from a film score, ranging into territory shaped byMick Jagger's work for Kenneth Anger. More than simple counterpoint to the visual information, Third Ear Band seems to have created an independent sonic world, one that would draw the narrative into its very dark space. This album was re-released on the Blueprint label (BP310 CD) in 1999.

Some sources says that they were founded in 1966 in the city Keflavik on Iceland and disbanded 1970 the same year they released their one and only album.

Mix good rock with a guitar sound that reminds of Manuel Göttsching cut it down to normal length and add some crazy vocals and you got it Achim Reichel. I think this is his first album and his best in my opinion. Here is some information: Posted by Love=Hell, Space=Acid @ 11:29 AM 11:29 AM | Permalink | 9 comments It seems Sweden's Atlas never had a very easy time of it, only releasing one album in their six-year history, 1979's Blå Vardag. Ad Perpetuam Memoriam's mid-'90s CD reissue includes several bonus tracks, including one by the post-Atlas outfit, Mosaik, formed by all of Atlas minus one of their two keyboard players, Björn Nielsen. Mosaik is a surprisingly progressive album for the time, although as Isildurs Bane proved, progressive rock didn't completely die out in Sweden in the '80s, though it really wasn't looking too well for a while. Mosaik's a bit of a mixed bag, going from gentle acoustic opener, Återfunnen, through the piano and sax duet Önnestad to the rather overlong Rhodes and MiniMoog jazz workout Re-Båpp, although overall, the band kept the quality pretty high. http://www.planetmellotron.com/revm9.htm A1.

Their first album was released in 1971 and are in my opinion their best one. They later changed name to Mount Everest Trio and in 1975 they released their album ”Waves from Albert Ayler” (Ayler is a big jazz legend).
(sorry that I ude rapidshare but that was the only one that works for me right now) Posted by Love=Hell, Space=Acid @ 10:26 AM 10:26 AM | Permalink | 5 comments somewhere it says; Sourdeline : Jeanne d'Ayme ( Discovale 77 FR ) Rarest second album of french mindblowing folk sychedelic in Emmanuel Parrenin vein with great acid parts ( electric & accoustic guitars, percus, sitar, tabla, flute, mandolin, violin... and delicate female vocals ) You see the fist ten time when you see the second only one. Great LP FOC.
Posted by nahavanda @ 12:53 AM 12:53 AM | Permalink | 5 comments Another band coming from a 60's long career, The Showmen from Naples had some hits in 1968 and 1969 with their original blend of soul, rhythm & blues and italian pop, releasing only an LP and a bunch of singles on RCA. After a short time Senese and Del Prete, aided by the guitarist Botta (now on bass), reformed the group with a new line-up, more influenced by the current italian rock tendencies. They first released some singles, halfway between the 60's soul of the original line-up and a new sound, then an album simply called Showmen 2 (the group was touring as Showmen 2, but the liner notes refer to them as simply Showmen), from which another single was taken, on the small local label B.B.B., with little promotion. The album is housed in a stunning heavy gatefold cover and contains a peculiar mix of rock, rhythm & blues, prog, not far from the sound of Chicago or the english band If. The voice has melodic pop influences, but the music is powerful and well played, with strong horn arrangements that make this album unique in the italian prog scene of the time. The band disbanded after the album, founders Senese and Del Prete creating Napoli Centrale with a production of three jazz-rock albums in 1975-77. Much confusion has been made about Showmen's name, with their album being reissued by B.B.B. label as Showmen 2 / Napoli Centrale; a later compilation on the same label (and still simply called with the group's name) mixed tracks from their 60's beat repertoire, the Showmen 2 album and even a Chicago track cover, Introduction, originally included in Mario Musella's solo album from 1973....read more here
thanks to antony :) Posted by nahavanda @ 12:53 AM 12:53 AM | Permalink | 2 comments at 1987 an author Karl Adamek published a book about German/Turkish folk songs, and as i informed this album first appeared with this book, Three years later at 1990 album reissued and took its place in music markets. Rüzgargülü (windrose in english) was a Turkish-German music ensemble, that made their journeys thru turkish and german anonymous folk songs.at 90s they were better known with their works, concerts and research of folk music, Altough the album stands for its melodies & rhytmm (like most of the folk) lyrics takes its role in this album. it remind me other bands like Grup Yorum,Kızılırmak that i used to listen a lot in the past. I dont think this band can be named as protest folk, however there is a left wing mood can be felt with selecting of rythmms and some songs.. finaly i want to say that, i listened many songs written for Sacco & Vanzetti, but this one is the nicer & different one that i listened, I wanted to copy/paste some information for Sacco & Vanzetti at the following paragraphs; This album is enough good not to be forgotten. Enjoy! Rüzgargülü - Katibim
----------------------------------------------------- The story of two Italian-born anarchists, Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, framed for murder and then executed for their beliefs. "Did you see what I did to those anarchist bastards?" Sacco and Vanzetti were committed anarchists who had been active in many workers' struggles. In 1916, Sacco was arrested for taking part in a demonstration in solidarity with workers on strike in Minnesota. In the same year he took part in a strike in a factory in Plymouth, Massachusetts. It was here that he met Bartolomeo Vanzetti, who was one of the principal organisers of that strike. Like most anarchists, the two were also active in their opposition to the First World War. Severe poverty in the post-war years meant that many workers were dissatisfied with the status quo. The authorities were terrified that workers might follow the example of the Russian Revolution, and were doing everything in their power to portray communism and anarchism as 'un-American', and to frighten workers way from 'red' propaganda. ...

thanks to hwabian :) Posted by nahavanda @ 2:39 AM 2:39 AM | Permalink | 2 comments The story of this band started at the Chapel Farm, a farmhouse near Gravesend (Kent) were the band had their first rehearsals. It was the family home of singer Paul Petley, other musicians were Geoff Whitehorn (electric guitar), Paul Lawrence (acoustic guitar/vocals), David Metcalfe (keyboards), David Read (bass guitar) and Brian Chatham (drums), later replaced by John Webster. The lead guitar was by the promising Bob Vann but he died in a car accident, he was replaced by Pete James. The new line-up FANTASY sent a demo tape to the label Decca and changed their name in FIREQUEEN. But Polydor was also interested and they pursuaded the band to sign for them. Again the band decided to change their name, it became FANTASY, a name that fitted more to the style and flavour of the music. The debut album was called "Paint A Picture" and released in '73 (now on CD). Soon FANTASY belonged to the past, the tapes for a next album remained in the vaults of time. Fortunately the label Audio Archives released these tapes as a CD called "Beyond The Beyond". This one is an absolute beauty and it contains nine very refined compositions with warm vocals and 12-string acoustic guitars, flowing and sensitive electric guitar and lots of Hammond organ and Mellotron. The highlight on this album is the track Alexandrie (almost 9 minutes) with the Mellotron in all its splendor: majestic eruptions and beautiful waves along a typical Sixties sounding organ.

The psychedelic vibe is in full effect; this sounds like a Korean Doors band. It's more slower paced though. The second album is faster paced too and more progressive in a sense.

I'm no expert in Eddie's vocal talents...but is that him singing on this?? Sure kind of makes sense if it is. I would never associate Eddy Grant with heavy afro funk but thats the general slant of this lp - Heavy heavy organ funk that isn't so much about songs...more like grooves! Three of the tracks are over 8 minutes long so they are really jamming along here. Its hard to a fave track but 'Freedom' is possibly up there.

It´s one of the rarest Nigerian LP´s. if you like the early Blo sound, Fela Kuti, Bunzu Soundz, Nedzolleh Soundz but not the later more generic Nigerian pop that often is described as afro music then this one´s for you. It´s heavy and original. As the sleeve notes say "'Projection one' will be loved and hated for it´s incomparable precedence". Sample: 3. Anubis - Anubis 1983 French symphonic rock 4. Catastrophe - High Dynamic 1981 France) 1981 private. Catastrophe's sole album reminds me a lot of Missus Beastly circa their brilliant 1974 album. Take away the flute and piano and add a hot guitarist plus a MONSTER Jannick Top like bassist! Frenzied and energetic. A corker. 5. Vestenvinden - Gummimasker 1971 Scandinavian hard progressive rock 6. Hot Flash - First Attack! They'll Never Take Us Alive 1977 US hard symphonic rock 7. Anor - The Taste of Pomegranate That is one of best Uzbekistan jazz-rock fusion released on melodiya label 8.
