I agree. Their best and most talented line-up. The album sounds really raw. My favorite though is Waterfall Cities...

Tangerine Dream - The Official Bootleg Series Volume 1 (The whole set
![]() NOFX - The War on Errorism Mata-Ratos - Banda Sonora do Apocalipse Anunciado The Clash - Give 'em Enough Rope Soft Machine - Fifth (Yes, it has a nice atmosphere, but I feel the songs have a lack of direction, which got even more evident with the abrupt ending.) King Crimson - Larks' Tongues in Aspic

Happy The Man - Crafty Hands - First time listen for this one. Plenty of excellent synth-driven (mostly) instrumental prog on side one; the compositions and performances are tasteful and organic. Side two presents some more interesting wind arrangements, all still to a very high standard of composition. What with this and Yezda Urfa's Boris, Mr. Smith may have been on to something all along!

Renaissance - 'Scheherazade and Other Stories': Ya know, I actually think "The Vultures Fly High" is my favorite track off this release, followed by "Ocean Gypsy". Guess I'm really feelin' the shorter tracks.
Renaissance - 'Ashes are Burning': Man the opener "Can You Understand" on this album is so damn DOPE. In fact the only song I really have trouble with is "Let it Grow". There's only so much 'lovey-dovey' I can handle. Lisa Loeb - 'Firecracker': I loved this woman in the mid-90's, though I didn't pay much attention to her music. This release is quite a mess, but there's a couple of goodies within. Feels like a rarities, demo & B-sides album. |

![]() Cerrone - III (Really cool (and Jarre-ish in places) Electronic Disco on side A. Side B is the usual stuff with strings and brass... meh) Popol Vuh - Einsjäger & Siebenjäger (I enjoyed this one more than the previous two for some reason) Harold Budd / Brian Eno - "Ambient 2: The Plateaux of Mirror" (Quite minimalistic but very soothing and different from "Abandoned Cities". I'll have to listen to Airports as well, Andrew ![]() Zacht Automaat - We're Glad You Agree Zacht Automaat - As It Is Spoken, It Shall Be Done The Flower Kings - Retropolis (I see what you mean Michael, it's like Close to the Edge meets Red. It makes sense since Retropolis is both wondrous and strange: after all everyone sells something (illegal?) and wizards morph into Elvis

Sam, nice to see you've voted "yes" for Zacht Automaat.
![]() Myself, I have revisited one of my favorite Progressive Electronic albums today. That's right, I'm talking about Musik Von Harmonia. This album is magnificent. Magnificent. The early-70's drum machines add such a distinctive flavor and there is just something about the recording, instrumentation, and colors of this album that make it one of my favorites to come out of Germany. Cartoon - Cartoon This is definitely a lost gem of avant-rock. The instrumentation is interesting. Although there is almost no bass guitar, the sound feels very rich and full. Loads of synthesizers and nice Hammond organ remind me of Brain Salad Surgery at times. But the music makes me thing of Art Zoyd or Univers Zero, but without the dark, ominous element. Really good stuff! |
