3 items added today: BLOOD, SWEAT & TEARS ~ 3 3rd album from 1970. Although less favored by the critics, this album is as good as the self-titled previous one, with David Clayton-Thomas` soaring vocals and those incredible instrumental arrangements. As usual it contains some original material (especially the brilliant `Lucretia Mac Evil`) and some great arrangements of songs by other conteporary writers (especially `Sympathy For The Devil`). This music never dies! BLOOD, SWEAT & TEARS ~ 4 4th album from 1971. Again not a great favorite with the critics, but still a very strong album by the band, marking a transition to all originally written material. This was to be the last album by the (more or less) original line-up, which of course is a great pity, as they were undoubtedly one of the pioneers of Jazz-Rock Fusion and incredibly talented musicians. In retrospect this album is still a damn good listen. WINTER, JOHNNY ~ SAINTS & SINNERS 1974 album by Winter and his great band, including his brother Edgar and Rick Derringer. They play a highly energetic set of originals and standards, a mixture of rock `n roll and blues, which was always the Winter`s trademark. Some incredible guitar licks of course, as he is a master of his trade. This is a great reminder of how great rock music sounded in the mid 70`s. =========================== Many items back in stock! =========================== Have Fun!

We wish all our customers a Happy Passover! Thank you for your continuous support. 7 items added today: BLUE ÖYSTER CULT ~ BLUE ÖYSTER CULT (MILLENIUM EDITION) 1st album from 1972 by this US group. Although associated mostly with the heavier side of rock, Blue Öyster Cult`s debut album was in fact an ear-opener to a new dimension in songwriting. The cryptic lyrics and unusual rhythm patterns keep the listener on his toes. The music sounds like a mixture of Jefferson Airplane and Spirit, but always full of surprises. In fact this is as far from the monotonious heavy metal riffs as can be and sounds quite fresh even today. CHAMBERS BROTHERS ~ THE TIME HAS COME (MILLENIUM EDITION) The Chamber Brothers started as a folk/gospel/rhythm & blues group in the mid 60`s, but this 1967 album brought them to the attention of a much wider audience. It is an excellent example of how many US folk based groups embraced the new psychedelic sound and incorporated it into the R&B roots. The gospel like vocal harmonies are stll here, but the rocky instrumentation and the psychedelic sound create just the right spice to make it deliciously groovy! It was `the summer of love` and they were surely a part of what was happening. A classic! MOONDOG ~ MOONDOG (MILLENIUM EDITION) Moondog (Louis Hardin) was one of the legendary figures on the New York music scene. A self-taught composer and player, he created some of the most fascinating modern music and also the most unusual. Impossible to classify, his music could be placed anywhere between contemporary classic, jazz, world music and avant-garde. This album collects all the music released on his Columbia albums from 1969 & 1971, which includes performances by top jazz musicians. A gem! KANSAS ~ POINT OF KNOWN RETURN 5th album from 1977. Veteran US Prog band Kansas are probably the best example of a synthesis between the UK based Prog and American roots of melodic, country influenced Rock. Considered by many as ther definitive album, it includes the monster hit `Dust In The Wind`, which must be one of the nicest songs ever written? The healthy ballance Kansas managed to maintain between the Prog and the melodic Rock elements make them true heroes of the genre. KANSAS ~ TWO FOR THE SHOW 6th album from 1978 and the first live album following a string of 5 immensly successful studio albums. Originally a double LP here on 1 CD (unfortunately less 1 track). It presents the group in full power mode, playing much extended versions of their album tunes, with much space for individual soloists to show off, as usual on live recordings. They prove anything they can do in the studion they can do better on stage. HANCOCK, HERBIE ~ SEXTANT After leaving Miles Davis` group in 1968, Herbie Hancock established his own sextet, which included some of the best players on the scene, including Buster Williams on bass, Billy Hart on drums and Bennie Maupin (also ex-Miles) on reeds. Hancock continued the direction pioneered by Miles, playing modal compositions and using electric instruments, but spiced it with the addition of african rhythms and funk (to be expanded in the next edition of his group), creating a highly expressionist sound-scapes of rare beauty. This group recorded 3 albums for Warner Bros. between 1969-1971 and then Hancock signed with Columbia, this being his 1972 debut album for the label. Extraordinary and essential! HANCOCK, HERBIE ~ HEAD HUNTERS This 1973 album turned out to be one of the all time best selling album in jazz, and rightfully so. The new Hancock quintet takes a new direction and makes funk the focal point of their music, this being probably the quintessential instrumantal funk album of all times. Influenced by music of rock funk groups like Sly and Family Stone, Hancock adds his jazz vistuosity to the basic funk element and creates a masterpiece that withstands the test of time effortlessly. Absolutely essential cornerstone of modern music. ================================ Many items back in stock! ================================ Have Fun!

6 items added today: MAGIC ~ ENCLOSED 1st album from 1969 by this obscure US band. This is a gem of early US psychedelia and shows how garage bands developed into brilliant groups, made an album or two and dissapeared into oblivion just shortly after. Some great guitar playing here and the 12 minutes track `I`ll Just Play` is worth the price of the album. A great document of the era. MERKIN ~ MUSIC FROM MERKIN MANOR Only album from 1972 by this obscure US band. Full of psychedelic influences, this is another gem from the past, clearly showing that there was much undiscovered talent around in those years. The album was an insanely expensive collector`s item before this CD reissue. MAJIC SHIP ~ THE COMPLETE AUTHORIZED RECORDINGS Only album from 1969 by this US band. The material is typical US garage with some psychedelic and hard-rock influences. Lots of fuzz guitar sounds and heavy organ, as appropriate for that period. Quite interesting and a good document of the scene. The bonus material collects all know output by the band making this album a complete collection of their recorded legacy. PENDRAGON ~ OVERTURE 1984-96 This compilation of Pendragon`s music is a great introduction to their early works. Including tracks from their albums and EPs, it presents the Neo-Prog pioneers in full blown glory, which is well deserved. Their talent to write excellent melodies and spice them with brilliant instrumental passages is omnipresent. If you don´t intend to get the individual albums, grab this one! JUICY LUCY ~ BLUE THUNDER After 4 great album released between 1969-1972 the UK Blues-Rock group Juicy Lucy disbanded. This is their comeback album from 1996 and it features 2 founding members - Paul Williams on vocals and Micky Moody on lead guitar. The material is similar to their origial stuff, blues oriented with hard rocking rhythm section. Williams` voice is as good as it was then and Moody plays some nasty slide guitar, probably one of the greatest masters of this instrument. Definitely a worthwhile comeback! VARIOUS ARTISTS ~ STRANGE DAZE `97 Subtitled `America`s Premier Space Rock Festival`, this album documents the performances recorded at that event. Main stars are of course Hawkwind and Nik Turner`s Far Flung, but a plethora of various groups parttake here, ranging in style from ambient and electronic to Space Rock proper. For fans of the genre this is an incredible document well worth getting. ================================= The `Bonus CD with every order` offer continues! ================================= Have Fun!

a relatively famous prog band

Most of the forum members have heard of it its stuff. Personally I find vdGg to be one of the better english 70s bands, whose albums can be listened to dozens of times without getting bored.

ללהקה היו נגני ג'אז פיוזן אבל...

המוזיקה של הלהקה עצמה לא היה פיוזן (לפחות לא היה בו גאז ממה שמעתי).
