I suggest to make some updates related to the tracks titles and lines-up. When a track title appears in English it doesn't mean it has to be replaced by the Czech one -- it just may be separated by a slash -- Czech title / English title. I don’t think, however, that the same thing is right with regard to the albums titles (in my opinion, an album title should appear as it was released, not translated).

 

So, here we are:

 

1. Meditace (Supraphon 1970)

Tracks:

1. Paměť Lásky

2. Blue Efect Street
3. Fénix
4. Stroj na nic
5. Sluneční hrob
6. Little Girl
7. Deserted Alley
8. Blues About Stone
9. Rainy Day
10. Where Is My Star

 

1994 re-issue has 7 bonus tracks:

11. Kingdom of Life
12. White Hair
13. Klíště
14.
El Dorado
15. Dívko z kamene
16. Čajovna
17. Návštěva u tety Markéty, vypití šálku čaje

 

1996 re-issue has 7 bonus tracks:

11. Sen není věčný 
12. I Like The World (Sun Is So Bright)
13. Blue Taxi
14. Snakes
15. Slunečný hrob
16. I've Got My Mojo Working
17. White Hair 

 

 

2. Coniunctio (s Jiřím Stivínem a skupinou Jazz Q Praha, Supraphon 1970, Supraphon/Artia 1970) (i.e. with Jiří Stivín and Jazz Q Praha group)

 

Tracks:

1. Coniunctio I
2. Návštěva u tety Markéty, vypití šálku čaje
3. Asi půjdem se psem ven
4. Coniunctio II

 

Line-up:

3.
Kingdom Of Life (anglická verze alba Meditace, Supraphon 1971) (i.e. English version, released a year later than the Czech one – it may be added as a separate entry as it has a different cover and a different year of release (although I don’t know if the very content of the album is different), and it may not)

1. Meditace (Supraphon 1970)

Track list updated. I have not changed the album title yet because .... do we really need 2 separate entries? Is the 'international' version a re-recording (ie vocals) or is it merely re-packaged? [...... see point 'd' below .... ]

2. Coniunctio

Done. Have changed the title to .... Coniunctio (s Jiřím Stivínem a skupinou Jazz Q Praha) .... is that right?

I noticed that the link doesn't work -- wanted to say that after the updates. The information I prepared is taken from the site you've mentioned. I'm not sure it can be called "the official website", but it's better then nothing. The text is in Russian, but all the information is in Czech, and it seems rather authentical.
 
Edit: The text in Russian is the short biography of the group. The release info and band's members' names are in Czech.

Come back to this .....




 
1. and 3. are (almost) similar. If it is the mere re-package of the Czech version then there is no need for the additional entry. But I don't know anything about the language in the record. You may also see my doubts in the initial post.
 
2. It may stay this way. Or it may be written "Blue Effect & Jazz Q Praha" (as stated in the newly found website).

Both Nova Synteza albums titles -- the new site states: Modrý Efekt & Jazzový orchestr Čs. rozhlasu.

Done .... didn't know you could get LPs in 1077 LOL"

7. Svitanie -- track 4. -- you may also replace the tilde by the (more conventional) slash...

OK .... I think it's all done .... see my above post, especially point a - d at the end of it .....

Great job, Joolz! Thumbs%20Up
 
...For the moment, I have no more updates on Czech groups in PA (there are not many).
 
Have you seen my last post in "Flamengo" thread?

I've found two more band's websites.
 
This one:  http://www.blueeffect.wz.cz/ - http://www.blueeffect.wz.cz/  claims itself unofficial, but this: http://www.blueeffect.cz/ - http://www.blueeffect.cz/  seems to be exactly what we need.
 
Take a look and say what do you think.
 
The current link is not so much band's website, it's more a page with a short biography (in Russian, which means -- not available for most users) and a discography.

Agreed .... it would appear to be their official site so ..... done ....
