I shall put it into the amazon cart if you will. :) Lastly, how did ya love the new maiden album? I'm still pretty happy with it. Speed of light is the only track where I'm on the fence for...just not crazy about it, but the rest I believe I am!

Dungen's great. Still bummed about missing them when they played here recently. 

Saturday...

Ruphus - New Born Day

Tonight’s choices:

Druckfarben – Second Sound
Mystery – The World is a Game
Pendragon – Men Who Climb Mountains

Michael Bruckner – Two Letters from Crimea - Sam, I swear…listening to ALL of this again (yes, all two 70 plus minute discs!), makes me think that if this had come out in the 70’s, it would have been a pretty legendary defining release! But the question is, which is better, the first or second disc? The slow-build thirty minute `(No) Saints' is a knockout alone!

Ishq – In A Rainbow Air

Ishq – Vuunayatu – Sam, you really need to give this one a listen. I think it’s absolutely sublime. And if you like it, consider snapping up the CD, there might be only a few copies left (if at all!) – https://virtual1.bandcamp.com/album/vuunayatu

(But I still don't think they're `prog/electronic' enough to propose to the Archives! )

HA! Welcome to pit of shame level that I more or less operate on every day of my life!

Polly Jean Harvey really has a thing for synthesizing both folklore from the distant past and her own personal perspective in the contemporary modern world into a unique timeless aesthetic. See how she can take a lot of old blues influences on To Bring You My Love, and adapt it to her very different cultural background and life experience from those old American bluesmen.

Another example is how despite Let England Shake is inspired by Britain's then-current military adventures in Afghanistan and Iraq, some of the songs have an "Old Time Americana" feel that make me think of the American Civil War and sepia-toned photographs from back then.

Anima Morte – The Nightmare Becomes Reality
Logos – L’Enigma Della Vita
Mosiaco – Vola
Murple – Il Viaggio
Sezione Frenante – Metafora di un Viaggio
La Coscienza di Zeno – La Notte Anche di Giorno
L’Uovo d I Colombo – s/t
Adelbert von Deyen – Nordborg
Tangerine Dream – Supernormal (yesterday was the 1 year anniversary of the specific Melbourne concert this set is from, wonderful hearing it again!)
