Peter Hammill - Incoherence

Originally released in 2004, 'Incoherence' was formed of 14 songs that were all linked together to form one continuous piece of music, the first time in many years that Peter Hammill had taken this approach. All the pieces had a common lyrical focus on miscommunication and failures of language. Upon its release, the album was highly praised by both fans and critics and is one of Peter's most acclaimed later works.

Eyes Of Blue - The Light We See: The Recordings 1969-1971

Formed in 1966, EYES OF BLUE won the Melody Maker "Beat Contest" that year and signed to Decca's Deram label. Following the release of some unrepresentative singles (later disowned by the band), the group came to the attention of producer LOU REIZNER and the line-up of GARY PICKFORD-HOPKINS (vocals), WYNDHAM REES (vocals), PHIL RYAN (keyboards), RAY "TAFF" WILLIAMS (guitar), RITCHIE FRANCIS (bass) and JOHN WEATHERS (drums) recorded their debut album, 'CROSSROADS OF TIME'. Finally released by Mercury Records in early 1969, the record was a fine mixture of original compositions and imaginative covers, (such as '7 + 7 Is' and 'Yesterday'). The album's title track and 'Love is the Law' were penned by the legendary Graham Bond, who also wrote the original album notes. A highly original album with psychedelic, jazz and classical influences, 'CROSSROADS OF TIME' is now regarded as a classic of the era and is much sought after by collectors. In the Spring of 1969 Wyndham Rees departed and the band recorded 'IN FIELDS OF ARDATH', a more "progressive" album, touching on a range of influences from psychedelic rock, Rhythm & Blues, jazz, Indian and classical music. Following its release EYES OF BLUE ended their association with Mercury records and headed further into a progressive rock direction, recording a third album with Lou Rezener. The excellent 'BLUEBELL WOOD' was issued on the Progressive label Pegasus Records in 1971 under the moniker of BIG SLEEP. By the time of the album's release the band had disintegrated leaving PHIL RYAN to join PETE BROWN's PIBLOKTO! Before joining up with fellow Welsh legends MAN. JOHN WEATHERS would later join GENTLE GIANT before also joining MAN in the 1980s.

Egg - Egg

Featuring a line-up of DAVE STEWART (organ, piano, tone generator), MONT CAMPBELL (bass, vocals) and CLIVE BROOKS (drums), the band had evolved from the group URIEL who also featured STEVE HILLAGE. By the end of 1968 the group was reduced to a trio with the departure of Hillage to the University of Kent and they became known as Egg. Egg singed to Decca Records in the summer of 1969 and recorded their wonderful debut album later that year. Originally issued by Decca's Deram Nova label in January 1970, 'EGG' is now regarded as a classic early progressive / psychedelic rock album. This new Esoteric Recordings vinyl edition restores the track 'Symphony No. 2 – Third Movement', which was withdrawn from the original release due to the piece borrowing from themes by Stravinsky. The album has been cut at Abbey Road studios and fully restores the original LP artwork.

THURSTON MOORE - Flow Critical Lucidity

A tre anni dallo strumentale Screen Time, esce Flow Critical Lucidity, l'album da solista numero 9 di Thurston Moore. Il lavoro segue Sonic Life, memoir del 2023 in cui l'ex Sonic Youth ripercorre la propria vita. Il disco ha tutta l'aria di essere una costola dell'epopea Sonic Youth. Non mancano le sperimentazioni ma pur sempre nel solco del formato canzone. Tra i brani più in vista la collaborazione con Laetitia Sadier nell'esoterica Sans Limite. In scaletta c'è poi Rewilding condivisa nel giorno dell'Earth Day; ancora in modalità psych ma dagli accenti jazz. Ad eseguirla troviamo la band impiegata per il disco: Deb Googe dei My Bloody Valentine (al basso), James Sewards (chitarra), Jem Doulton (percussioni) e Jon "Wobbly" Leidecker (elettronica).

BRIGHT EYES - Five Dice, All Threes

Five Dice, All Threes è un disco di intensità e tenerezza fuori dal comune, di esorcismo comunitario e di indagine personale. Si tratta, ovviamente, di qualità che i fan si aspettano dai Bright Eyes, in quasi tre decenni di onorata carriera. L'affiatata band composta da Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis e Nate Walcott tende a operare in movimenti distinti: ognuno unico nel suo suono e nella sua storia, ma unificato da un senso di ambizione e da una posta in gioco emotiva sempre crescente. Anche con questa ricca storia alle spalle, queste nuove canzoni emanano un brivido viscerale come nulla hanno tentato prima. Oberst ha sempre cantato con una voce che trasmette un senso di gravità di vita o di morte. A volte, nel corso di Five Dice, All Threes, ci si può sentire preoccupati per lui; altre volte, può sembrare l'unico con la lucidità necessaria per tirarci fuori da questo pasticcio.
