N.T. - ATOMIC SYSTEM
The album 'Ut,' with a heavier sound, closer to hard rock caused the split of the New Trolls with the two leaders Di Palo and De Scalzi going in two different ways. A legal struggle followed, for the use of the famous name, and while Di Palo with the other three chose the Ibis way, in a hard rock direction, Vittorio De Scalzi formed a new band, called N.T. to avoid contractual problems, and with a more polished sound. To help their fans to recognize this band as the real New Trolls, early copies of the album had a sticker on the sleeve covering the N.T. name with the full New Trolls brand. N.T. released their first album 'Atomic System' in 1973, a nice album with a large use of horn instruments, De Scalzi himself playing flute and keyboards along with guitar. Limited edition 180 gram black vinyl. |

OLIVER - STANDING STONE (BLACK)
Edition on BLACK VINYL! Now reissued is a Welsh cult private pressing rarity, originally from 1974. Farmer and part-time musician Oliver Chaplin recorded this mind bending album on a portable 4-track Teac reel-to-reel machine, assisted by his brother Chris, an experienced BBC engineer who was involved in sessions with a.o. Syd Barrett. Oliver sang and played acoustic and electric guitars, and plenty of effects were used to create a very unique kind of DIY mutant-psychedelic-blues (think Captain Beefheart) which sounded years ahead of its time. Though the original LP was pressed in an edition of only 250 copies, it caught the attention of a.o. Virgin Records and J.J. Cale, but Oliver decided not to get tangled up in the music industry. 'Standing Stone' is recommended to fans of a.o. Captain Beefheart, Syd Barrett, Fresh Maggots, Comus, Magical Power Maco and Brian Eno. This vinyl reissue comes with a thick sleeve, a download code, an obi, rare photos and liner notes by Richard Allen. |

This collection of well crafted, dreamy songs, with cool organ, mellotron, fuzzy guitars and melancholic vocals, was first released by Acme label back in 1999. And now here's a new edition on BLACK VINYL, including liner notes. The music of Please is recommended to fans of a.o. The Doors, Soft Machine, Pink Floyd, Tomorrow and The Move. |

PROCESSION (ITALY) - FIABA (CLEAR)
Two very different albums by two almost totally different bands, is all that Procession have left us. This band from Turin made their first album 'Frontiera' in 1972 for the small Help label (an RCA subsidiary that also released Quella Vecchia Locanda's first album), a good album that can be easily described as an hard prog LP. With a line-up of two guitars, bass and drums, and the original high pitched voice of singer Gianfranco Gaza, the band plays very good hard rock with some progressive influences and acoustic passages. Not particularly original, the album has its moments and it's particularly rare. The band reappeared in 1974 with a new line-up and a new recording deal, this time it's Fonit that releases their second album 'Fiaba.' A mature work, much more original than their first and more in a symphonic vein with large use of sax and flute with guest appearances by drummer Francesco Froggio Francica (from Raccomandata Con Ricevuta Di Ritorno), Delirium's keyboard player Ettore Vigo and Circus 2000 female singer Silvana Aliotta, while drummer Roberto Balocco (ex-Capsicum Red) helped the group in concert. Despite a good live activity Procession never gained the success they deserved and despite two good albums they broke up in 1975. Comes on 180 gram clear vinyl. |

SAMSARA BLUES EXPERIMENT - END OF FOREVER
"Samsara Blues Experiment, one of the heavyweights of German psychedelic rock are leaving the scene, but anything but silently! 'End Of Forever' consists of seven songs. Compared to the 2017 album 'One Of The Universe' - which was defined in particular by the elaborate, 15-minute title track - the listeners will again experience a very organic production and a self-reflective bow in the direction of the early days of the band, without copying themselves. What is striking is the almost equal use of keyboards and synthesizers next to the guitar, which again and again manage to create a great atmosphere, not infrequently reminiscent of bands like Pink Floyd in the seventies - not necessarily from the sound, but simply from the craftsmanship with which they manage to send the listener on a journey, where destination and return are indeterminate and solely at the discretion and imagination of the listener - if he gets involved. With 'End Of Forever' Samsara Blues Experiment created a farewell statement, which already makes you want to see them again." ~Rockblog Bluesspot. |

SECOND HAND - DEATH MAY BE YOUR SANTA CLAUS
After their excellent Polydor debut suffered from lack of promotion, Second Hand's sophomore LP surfaced on Mushroom, the noncommercial label formed by Vic Keary, Mike Craig, and Neil Richmond, allowing for unfettered experimentation. With George Hart on bass, new frontman Rob Elliott and drummer Kieran O'Connor on vibraphones, Ken Elliott takes melodic command on Mellotron, piano and organ, the disc a freakily esoteric juggernaut. This lost masterwork here comes with rare bonus tracks 'Dip It Out Of The Bog Fred,' 'Baby RU Anudder Monster?' and the orchestrated 'Funeral,' a scarce 1972 single. |

SECOND HAND - REALITY
Obscure prog rockers Second Hand began as the Next Collection, formed at a south London secondary school; engineer/manager Vic Keary scored them a contract with Polydor as The Moving Finger, but their legendary debut LP was credited to Second Hand, due to a rival Moving Finger. Channelling psych and spacey acid hues, there is blues-rock underpinning Bob Gibbons' guitar and keyboardist Ken Elliott helps aim the sound towards deep space; this edition features rare tracks 'JamesS In The Basement' and 'I Am Nearly There' from a 1965 Next Collection single (backing Denis Couldry), already showing their freak-psych capabilities. An essential listen for all true prog connoisseurs! |

The roots of '80s English psychedelic freak band The Tryp lie in a hoax perpetuated by Steve Lines' indie mag Mardenbeat, based in the town of Calne in the Marden Delta, which reviewed a gig by a non-existent band; former JP Sunshine main man Rod Goodway and partner Christine Cotter then gave flesh to the beast with Lines and Paul Ricketts of Unhinged mag, cutting 'My Brain Collapsed!!' as an exploration of mushroom-fuelled mental instability. First issued on cassette label Mardentapes and later by Acid Tapes (just as Lines took over from Alan Duffy), this edition is the first on vinyl-A MUST HAVE FOR ALL TRYPPERS! |

BERNARDES, CHICO - CHICO BERNARDES
Chico Bernardes is a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Sao Paulo, Brazil. In his first and self-titled record, Chico Bernardes has arranged and recorded all the instruments, with the support of Gui Jesus Toledo from Selo Risco and owner of Estúdio Canoa, where the recordings took place. Surrounded by lots of coffee and low lights, Chico recorded part of the songs as if he was singing for nobody, in real time. The other half of the record was filled with drums, bass, electric guitar, percussions and a bunch of keys, from old casio keyboards to an indian harmonium. The songs structured above nylon strings guitar were recorded with a 1968 Di Giorgio Romeo 3, frequently used on the classical Brazilian records from the '70s and beyond, that carry a very popular bossa nova tone, but Chico reworked its approach with the use of alternate tunings, on a closer proximity to artists such as Duncan Browne, Sibylle Baier and Joni Mitchell. For the steel strings, he used a '60s Martin 000, in order to reach the old and warm wooden sound of the record. The lyrics mostly talk about his wandering dreams about different affections with people, the transitional moments of a lifetime and self discoveries, from his essential core to the external world. |

KEITH, BARBARA - BARBARA KEITH
Back in 1971, Barbara Keith, a singer/songwriter that started her career at Greenwich Village's famous Café Wha? recorded this album for Warner Bros with a cast of musicians that included Jim Keltner, Spooner Oldham, Lowell George and Jim Gordon, amongst others. It's said that after listening to the result and feeling disappointed, Barbara decided to give the advance money back to the label and walk away from the music business. Reprise released the album but with Barbara retired, the label under-promoted the record. Against all odds the album went on to become a cult classic, highlighted by exceptional writing and solid production. The album didn't achieve much as far as sales but Keith's songwriting skills were noticed throughout the record industry. Barbra Streisand, Lowell George, Tanya Tucker, Delaney & Bonnie, The Dillards, and many others covered songs from the album, 'The Bramble And The Rose' and 'Detroit Or Buffalo' being favorites. Keith's signature style, between country-rock and folk, remains a landmark for the singer who sounds like she would've fit into Delaney & Bonnie's band or passed for an American version of Sandy Denny. Reissued on vinyl for the first time in tip on jacket. |

A singer-songwriter who wrote for the Turtles, Sill -in her early 1970s heyday- was compared to Asylum label contemporaries like Joni Mitchell, though her music had stronger spiritual overtones. This nearly forgotten performance reveals a true talent that deserved so much more during her short lifetime. Judee Sill grew up in a very troubled home and came through it with some truly great music to tell so many stories that many of the more sentient listeners will appreciate. SIDE 1: 1.

TIREY, WES - THE MIDWEST BOOK OF THE DEAD (2LP)
Wes Tirey's 'The Midwest Book Of The Dead' is an intimate study of the Midwestern condition. A double album, it tells of silos like chapels, spiders in the cane, of drunkards and saints and fugitives; it speaks of wild geese, and the good life, rhinestone suits, Coca Colas, and dishes drying on the rack. Sincerity, sensuality, and humor all reside in the candor and weight of these songs - its playing and arrangements, rich but unfettered, and Tirey's voice grown several feet deeper and more sonorous. It is a sublime expansion of a trademark style he has come to call "rustic minimalism". 'The Midwest Book Of The Dead' finds Tirey both solo for acoustic laments and backed by close collaborators for barroom ballads, with Ryan Gustafson (Hiss Golden Messenger, Phil Cook, Charlie Parr) taking the helm as producer. This assemblage of strangers and stories and snapshots of lives that make up 'The Midwest Book Of The Dead,' Tirey likens to "the book of photographs that you find at a Goodwill" - perhaps in Dayton, or Fayetteville, or in any of the stops on the highways that separate them. And while there are clues laid out across these lyrics, he believes there is an open-endedness to these songs. Still, the clues carry us on, into this land of high corn and pool halls, of farmboys, rusty Fords, and fathers like Elvis. Blue herons, hearts of steel, vinegar and piss; a land where people might rise "with everything to show, strong and comely as a colt." They are songs told straight and sincere, but that are nonetheless beguiling; the work of a master songwriter, a craftsman, an artist; a man who will always be part of the Midwest. |

KRYNG - KEEP HER IN MIND/TWENTY-TWO
From the muddy swamps of South-East Drenthe, in the Netherlands, hails the Kryng. Formed by compulsive singer songwriter Mark ten Hoor, the band is never short of catchy tunes. Completed with studio magician Arjan Spies and friendly giant Peter Kroes, the group produced no less than 5 albums and 5 singles. Their sound goes from the garage to the punkcellar and up on the roof for a touch of psychedelia, but always stay focused on the song. 'Keep Her In Mind' is a fuzzy, filthy stomper while the flipside 'Twenty-Two' shows their ability to record a number one hit song if the world was perfect. |

This edition contains three tracks originally not on the vinyl release. all tracks have been remixed and remastered at Dave Klein 's studios in L.A. and sound just brilliant.

Formed in the northern market town of Grantham in 1981, hardcore punk band English Dogs swiftly built a reputation via demos, supporting Charged GBH and Discharge on early tours. After the debut 'Invasion Of The Porky Men,' original vocalist Wakey was replaced by former Ultraviolent frontman Ade Bailey, the inclusion of Destructors guitarist Gizz Butt pointing to the new metal direction fully mined on 1985's 'Forward Into Battle,' Butt's flighty riffs lifting the thrash bedrock to further heights of melodicism.

SEX PISTOLS - SPUNK: THE DEMOS 1976-1977
In the history of punk, the Sex Pistols reign supreme; the anarchic quartet changed the history of popular culture forever with their caustic rupture of rock, a mixture of shock and awe that gave two fingers to the establishment, kick-starting a musical revolution. Recorded a few months before their 'Never Mind The Bollocks' debut, 'Spunk' is a revelation, raw demos cut in late 76 and early 77 by producer Dave Goodman, with Glen Matlock's bass far more melodic than what Sid Vicious cut on 'Bollocks'; this edition has bonus demos of 'Anarchy' and 'Pretty Vacant' cut at Denmark Street, as well as an unedited 'No Fun.'

VARIOUS - PUNK AND DISORDERLY 2: FURTHER CHARGES
At last! A new vinyl edition of the three legendary 'Punk And Disorderly' compilations, originally released between 1982 and 1983. At the dawn of the eighties the first volume arrived as a fiery statement from the heart of the British punk scene. Back in the day, the glorious early punk energy was still alive and in the meantime transforming through a wave of new bands coming up with fresh ideas and attitudes. Thanks to a great selection of both originators and newcomers, the whole explosive energy that was at the core of punk movement is perfectly captured throughout these three landmark compilations. An incredible roster of bands such as Vice Squad, Blitz, Chaos UK, Anti-Nowhere League, Vibrators, Angelic Upstarts... all original British punk acts except the San Francisco based Dead Kennedys represented on volume 1 with their seminal hit 'Kill The Poor.' This is fierce, loud and raw music caught in the midst of transition between punk rock and its next "hardcore" evolution.

VARIOUS - THE DECLINE OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION
Penelope Spheeris' ground-breaking documentary 'The Decline Of Western Civilization' captured the agony and the ecstasy of the Los Angeles punk scene of the late 1970s and its excellent soundtrack is required listening for all west coast punk fans. The raw, jagged live sets by icons such as Black Flag, the Circle Jerks, the Germs, and Fear must be heard to be believed and the numbers by X point to their later commercial breakthrough; Catholic Discipline, with Claude Bessy of Slash magazine, provide another nugget. Totally essential! SIDE 1: 1. Black Flag - White Minority 2. Black Flag - Depression 3. Black Flag - Revenge 4. Germs - Manimal 5. Catholic Discipline - Undergound Babylon 6. X - Beyond And Back 7.

From the ambitious structures of 'The Shore House' to the infectious pop of 'Dont Lie', 'Stars' is a pocket full of surprises. |

The talented songwriting duo of Rogers & Butler return with an engaging second album 'Brighter Day' - a collection of eleven original soon-to-be classics. Their distinctive blend of authentic and reflective lyricism matched with powerful melodies will linger in your head until the next spin. With the aid of some of New York City's best known musicians, the album is a testament to the timeless sound of sixties and seventies pop, with hints of the Kinks, Mott, Petty, Beatles and even English music hall. 5 stars from Shindig!

KOMATSUBARA, MASASHI/HIDEKI MATSUTAKE/KONAE IMATO - EDO
'Edo' is a cosmic ambient experimental masterpiece conceived in 1977 by Masashi Komatsubara and developed alongside with Hideki Matsutake (a.k.a. Logic System and reductively defined by many as the "fourth member of the Yellow Magic Orchestra"). As a true sound scientist, he pours all his efforts into this record, and aimed at the widest possible use of an electronic instrument that was at the forefront at that time - the Moog IIIc. He extends his research by trying to break down the last wall between modernity and the past: the union and eurythmy between artificial sounds and traditional sounds. All this through a perfect three-way collaboration together with the shamisen musician Konae Imato (aka Chojuro Imafuji), and the creation of a unique and extraordinary charming work dedicated to the double soul of the capital of Japan: ancient Edo, now the current day city of Tokyo. Includes obi and 4-page inserts with text in Japanese and English. |

WOODS, CAROL - OUT OF THE WOODS
Fully licensed reissue on 180 gram vinyl. Carol Woods was born in Jamaica, New York in 1943. She was deeply influenced by her grandfather, a Pentecostal minister, and her mother Marion Jones, which led her to become lead singer with the local church choir. A necessary soulful album long out of print. Recorded in London and published on Ember (British label formed in the early 1960s by club owner and promoter Jeffrey S. Kruger, owner of the Flamingo Club, London) in 1971, 'Out Of The Woods' is still a shiny gem on its own. The four tracks on her singles were included and the rhythm section backing tracks for the remainder were put down by Beau Ray Fleming (well known for his studio work with Mandrill) in New York. Ember's producer Mike Berry then added Carol's vocals and the horn section. Woods' vocals are full and rich and the record has a sort of post-Supremes vibe with an obvious seventies approach. Since that time Carol has found success in stage musicals, such as 'One Mo Time' where she took over the role of Big Bertha Williams, the hard drinking Vaudeville star. She has also appeared in movies, including Eddie Murphy 'Raw' where she played Eddie's aunt. |

RANKING TOYAN - GHETTO MAN SKANK
By the time 'Ghetto Man Skank' appeared on Jah Thomas' Midnight Rock imprint in 1983, Ranking Toyan was already a seasoned veteran of Kingston's soundclash scene, having apprenticed with a number of smaller outfits before becoming earning a slot with Henry "Junjo" Lawes' Volcano Sound and winning widespread acclaim for his effortless, patois-laden delivery and his gruff putdowns of rival DJs. Though Toyan had already cut a number of outstanding sides for producer Don Mais, his collaborations with Lawes are undoubtedly his definitive recordings. 'Ghetto Man Skank' stands as the very best of these. It boasts a set of simple, punishingly hard rhythms from the ace studio band The Roots Radics, which Toyan dominates with ease. His ability to spill forth unending streams of wordplay, streetcorner boasts, and infectious slogans is truly remarkable, enlivening every song on this set. Though Toyan didn't receive the same acclaim as fellow Volcano Sound DJs like Yellowman and Eek-A-Mouse, his outstanding performances on 'Ghetto Man Skank' prove he was their equal in every respect. |

Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder in 1962 and originally released by Bluesville Records, 'Shake 'Em On Down' was his biggest album, a great piece of downhome blues which earned him international attention.

'Underground And Beyond' was the debut album by cult proto-metal band Lucifer Was, containing songs written in 1971-72. With inspiration from Jethro Tull, Black Sabbath and Atomic Rooster. Remastered audio. Includes a colour insert with liner notes by Klemen Breznikar plus rare photos. Established in 1970 in Oslo, Lucifer Was were a powerful psychedelic hardrock and hard-prog band that split up in 1975. The band hibernated until 1996 when they reunited for a live concert. The chemistry appeared to be there still, and they entered a recording studio and recorded their first ever album, 'Underground And Beyond', featuring songs written in 1971-72. Their line-up included two flute players plus bass, drums and lead guitar by Thore Engen. Originally released in 1997 as a picture disc LP, here's the first ever standard LP reissue. |

After adding guitar player Bob Willcutt to their line-up, they released their second 7", 'Feel The Pain'/'Psychedelic Illusion', in 1967. Work then began on their album 'When You Hear The Music, It's Yours'. Fuelled by the creative force of band member Shawn Foreman (who would create the cult electro/disco project Transistor-Jet in the '80s), the group renamed to Dandelion Wine, went in true psychedelic mode, experimenting with unusual recording techniques. |

VAINICA DOBLE - VAINICA DOBLE
Probably the rarest and most sought after LP in the Spanish collector's market, the first album by Gloria Van Aerssen & Carmen Santonja is at last reissued in CD as it deserves. On the twelve songs they wrote for their debut album, originally released on Opalo in 1971, Vainica Doble blended folk, soft rock, pop and a dose of psychedelia to describe a magical world of their own with splendid Spanish lyrics and great arrangements that bring you echoes of the The Beatles, the Bristish Psychedelic Trip or The Incredible String Band without ever loosing their incredibly personal character that sounds so unique to today's ears as it did to those of 1971. The twelve songs of the original 1971 LP are here augmented with 8 bonus tracks, six of them taken from non-LP Vainica Doble singles (including both sides of their mega rare first 45 from 1970 "La bruja"/"Un metro cuadrado") plus two songs from the obscure single by Tickets, their backing band at the time, who recorded Vainica's penned "El rigor de las desdichas", with "Someone Like Me", a killer psychedelic fuzz-pop stomper, as its flipside. |

SUN RA & HIS ARKESTRA - SUPER-SONIC JAZZ
Repress! Cosmic traveller Herman 'Sonny' Blount became Sun Ra after an alien abduction, proclaiming that he came from Saturn and using music to point to human failure on earth, offering space as ethereal alternative. 'Super-Sonic Jazz' was released in 1957 on Ra's Saturn label and regularly reissued, even making it onto Impulse in 1974, its blend of bop, avant-garde and galactic well ahead of its time. More melodic and cohesive than many subsequent titles, 'Advice To Medics' is a troubling Ra piano diversion, and 'Super Blonde' a big-band stomp; 'Soft Talk,' by trombonist Julian Priester is one of the vehicles for John Gilmore's tenor sax and 'Kingdom Of Not' has uncommon swing. A must for all Sun Ra scholars! Comes on clear vinyl. |

OLIVER - STANDING STONE (GREEN)
Limited edition of 318 hand-numbered copies on GREEN VINYL! Now reissued is a Welsh cult private pressing rarity, originally from 1974. Farmer and part-time musician Oliver Chaplin recorded this mind bending album on a portable 4-track Teac reel-to-reel machine, assisted by his brother Chris, an experienced BBC engineer who was involved in sessions with a.o. Syd Barrett. Oliver sang and played acoustic and electric guitars, and plenty of effects were used to create a very unique kind of DIY mutant-psychedelic-blues (think Captain Beefheart) which sounded years ahead of its time. Though the original LP was pressed in an edition of only 250 copies, it caught the attention of a.o. Virgin Records and J.J. Cale, but Oliver decided not to get tangled up in the music industry. 'Standing Stone' is recommended to fans of a.o. Captain Beefheart, Syd Barrett, Fresh Maggots, Comus, Magical Power Maco and Brian Eno. This vinyl reissue comes with a thick sleeve, a download code, an obi, rare photos and liner notes by Richard Allen. |

TAKAYANAGI, MASAYUKI -& NEW DIRECTIONS- - INDEPENDENCE: TREAD ON SURE GROUND
Considered the 'Loch Ness Monster' of Japanese free jazz records due to its incredible rarity, this album was the debut recording of Takayanagi Masayuki as leader with The New Directions. Recorded at the Teichiku Kaikan studios on 18 September 1969 (released in 1970), 'Independence: Tread On Sure Ground,' is largely regarded as the first true classic of Japanese free jazz. The group thrashes out an entirely new Japanese methodology for improvisation based on Takayanagi's theories about progressive art. As Alan Cummings explains in his texts to review issues, the group's sonic outburst is pregnant with an urgent intensity similar to a violent rotating windstorm. Includes obi and insert. |

TOGASHI, MASAHIKO -QUARTET- - SPEED AND SPACE: THE CONCEPT OF SPACE IN MUSI
Recorded in November 1969 at Teichiku Kaikan Studio, Tokyo, 'Speed And Space: The Concept Of Space In Music' is one of those landmark works in which Masahiko Togashi is accompanied by talented musicians who possess a unique style and innovative approach. The album is an exploration of Togashi's notion of the "Time Law" and can be seen as a study of how texture, rhythm and differing rates of change effect our perception of the passage of time in music. Sounding quite obscure and contemplative, the brief introductory theme signed as 'Presage' prepares the listener for powerful and scathing free jazz. Includes insert and obi. |
