Zeuhl 5

Black Velvet wrote: Also did someone meantion Cos Not Zeuhl but bloody good. Viva Boma is a very diverse album. It contains a classic: L’idiot Leon. And a million great moments.

The last sentence is an understatement!

If I ever find myself around Tokyo in the next couple of years, I will definitely
visit that Progressive Rock Hall.

Kingsy, the Japanese like to give everything a fancy name. Just a record shop devoted to progressive rock. Interestingly there is no prog-metal there. Absolutely zero. Not even Rush. They're all in the 'Heavy Metal Hall'.

Had a visit yesterday and found the following things:

Univers Zero Live in London 1978 cd boot
Endless Can triple-cd boxsets (and I do mean endless)
Magma 12-cd boxset
Pink Floyd enormous cd/dvd box retailing at 40000yen (about 200UK)
King Crimson pink island vinyl In The Court UK issue around 4000yen (also noticed Dom 'Edge of Time' and Walter Wegmuller's 'Tarot' on vinyl)
A beautiful 10-cd box of 'introdution' Italian-prog with the box a cover of Zarathustra
etc etc

If you like yer box-sets then you know where to go!

I dare not ask the price memo but knowing Japan it is probably something like: One cd price multiplied by ten add on five percent tax. If you buy a 24 can case of beer here it is the same. One can price times 24.

That box set was absolutely beautiful though. Sumptuous textured sleeve an' all!

Black velvet is your man here memo. I got burned too many times with ex-Magma projects. Expect some typical French jazz-rock. His son and daughter (half French/Japanese) have been part of the new Magma line-up for some time. Have a listen to KA again where they excel!

Memo, I have listened to but don't own Paga's first album. Their sound is very much strongly towards the Jazz-zeuhl boundries. At times they hold a similar to sound to Weidorje, but from my view a much more technical and intense album. Definately give this one a try if you are into the Jazzy side of the genre. Paganotti never fails to impress with his technical ablities, alongside a more than compitent line up.

Thanks Adam

Thanks Adam   If the jazzier side is interesting to you, then try Potemkine (if you haven't done so already). Especially Triton and Nicolas II.   Thanks Assaf,   never heard a complete Potemkine album, only 4 songs including the one which is here in PA, and i liked them all
