I'm curious if anyone can recommend some great Israeli prog-rock, jazz-rock (and jazz for that matter) albums to me?

Thanks!

Incredibly, I heard from Ian Campbell, who used to work with Morris.

Ian has a limited number of Chromosphere CDs left. If you have any interest, you can write him directly at:...

Thanks -- I did email, but no reply. It's a 14-year old email though...

At some point they were both available for purchase on iTunes and even streaming.

But they are no longer available anywhere. Very strange.

I've recently been digging into his extraordinary solo work and that with Sun Treader.

What I recently realized is there were two albums released in the late 2000s titled Elektron Music and...

Hey everyone,

It's been a minute.

I was lucky enough to attend Robert Fripp's nine-hour King Crimson event in London a couple of weeks ago.

It included a four-hour dialog with Robert. You...

Oh, it's beyond messed up. I've said it before and I'll say it here: the music industry and music are often mutually exclusive entities.

Personal agendas, pettiness, insecurity, and just plain...

Hey Everyone,

My interview with renowned singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Robert Berry is now live on Innerviews. It's the result of six hours of intense conversation,...

Hey everyone,

Hey everyone,

There's a new interview with Sonar and David Torn discussing their new album Vortex on their fantastic new label RareNoise (due March 30th).

The interview is with both Stephan...

I once saw a Don Li thread on here. I tried to locate it and resurrect it, but it seems to have been vanquished.

At any rate, I consider Don one of the most important musicians and composers...

One of the more hilarious things was that guy who would go around trying to shut down threads by stating “NOT PROG” as the lone self-appointed arbiter of the phrase.

Pete Bonas seemed to changed his name to Pete Bonus for album usage after a few years. I have no idea why.

As for David Herschel... :O Fixed. Odd as it was spelled correctly in the original piece....

Hi Everyone,

My new interview with guitarist and composer John Goodsall of Brand X is now out on Innerviews. I've wanted to speak to John about his incredibly deep and diverse career for a long...

Auto-Tune is regularly used in live performance. It achieved "real-time" viability a long time ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/LetsTalkMusic/comments/36yhvu/live_autotune_how_does_it_work/

Super-fans will be super-fans and it doesn't matter how bad or moribund something is, they'll endorse it. Standard stuff, really. See Yes' "Heaven and Earth" as a prime example. It's hard to even...

On another note, sound clips from Mr. Walsh's new album are now available and his voice sounds better than it has in years: https://www.amazon.com/Black-Butterfly-Steve-Walsh/dp/B076D2GQ77

It's one thing for them to use Auto-Tune, but it's another thing altogether to say it's "reverb." Where was this said?

It is jarring and bizarre for them to have done this. It's hard to believe...

As for Stone Tiger... "Google is your friend."

There are several Paranoise albums, which is Noise R Us. Details here:

The first two have Percy.

No-one needs to agree with me. I thought it was a giant blast of fresh air. An album of great invention and creativity. At least you got to hear it...

You may also disagree with my enthusiasm for...

Yes, it is shocking.

What is even more shocking is the behavior of Hit & Run towards the Brand X guys. Hit & Run handle Genesis and Phil Collins. The publishing associated with Brand X is a drop...

Hi Everyone,

Innerviews has a new a interview with Percy Jones of Brand X out. It covers Brand X past, present and future in what I hope is a unique way. It's also a comprehensive overview of...

At the risk of overcommunicating, I want to have everyone know that Face is not just a $50 CD, but a regular album too, including iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/de/album/face/id1202221601

I don't mean to torture you but there is a Japanese edition with more music too. :-)

You're a lovely man responsible for a lot of wonderful music. I wish you the best.

Another constructive response.

Isn't it absolutely amazing?

After sending careless, hurtful messages electronically, someone was willing to man up, have a constructive conversation, and iron out differences and assumptions...

Hey Everyone -- My new interview with Steven Wilson, whose new album 'To the Bone' entered the British charts at number one, and is generating massive global interest, is now out on Innerviews. It's...

Among the most stupid things I did during the "great '90s vinyl purge" was get rid of my mint Triunvirat German LPs for basically nothing.

We could start talking about the BBC purging their audio and video archives in the '60s and '70s too...

The stupidity is breathtaking.

As I said, what has gone down is horrifying. What has gone down even in the last two years of major labels is horrifying. There have been monumentally stupid decisions made just recently to dump...

It has been endless consolidation with the labels so often who has what is in question (if it exists at all). In the late '60s and early '70s in particular, they had no idea what they had or what the...

Indeed, you are correct.

Fascinating and utterly unexpected.

But, if these tapes are usable for the future, we may not have even known they existed without the creation and announcement of...

The large box is a work in progress. Everyone's attention has been focused on Three Piece Suite.

I'm unsure if the surround mixes will be in the large box. I don't think significant details on...

For the sake of authenticity. Mixing actual multitrack remixes with Penteo upmixes would never achieve the consistency everyone involved in the process demanded.

This is my own personal...

I don't have any knowledge of Bornemark having multitracks for the first album.

What I do know is that Ray and Kerry went deep into the tape vaults with the labels searching for every multitrack...
