My favorite album from PH/VDG(G)!

Caterina Barbieri: Spirit Exit - a wonderful mix of synth-, classical - and minimal music.

New Antoine Fafard (formely Spaced Out), this time under the bandname Alta Forma: SPATIUM & TEMPUS (releasedate October 21) https://antoinefafard.com/

:roll "Games without frontiers" Peter Gabriel used to sing. Borders bring the worst in men's life and now we're going to throw borders into an artform like music. So my answer would be: earth!

The real question should be: Which musicians are entitled to use the name of a band?

Plenty of examples of course, but for me the members of It Bites sans Francis Dunnery should have picked...

"Low" by Hubo Wilcken (originally from 2005, this edition is from 2020). Fine view on the making of David Bowie's first Berlin-album in the 33 1/3 series.

I pledged the first time (2016). Allan Holdsworth was suppost to play on it. Then the world changed and we lost Allan. And I lost interest.

Thanks a lot! Wonderful playing.
I wonder if the Mick Taylor-performance from this same day includes members from Gong, just like the album he released that same year (1979).

Found a second-hand copy of Praise The Load on The Laser's Edge: nice [sic!] keyboard-driven prog, with a lot of classical influences and a nice foreword by Sterling Smith.

Funny coincidence: yesterday I read a review about a festival in Amsterdam which took place while I was in that city. Well, I missed it, so I also missed Azymuth, one of the performing acts on this...

This is a list of the British Jazz Sound Archive on the Jazz In Britain-site, with quite some Holdsworth-sessions: https://jazzinbritain.org/bjsa-brief-list/

Yes, "Blow Out" is indeed quite laid back, but I like that sound (especially the Moog-playing). The Black And White-album was also re-released on CD recently by Norske Albumklassikere:...

Bought the hard-copy about a year ago (and posted about it somewhere over here ;)). I really enjoyed reading it, especially because Robyn Flans, the author, has known Jeff a long time. And I think...

I can only compare the Esoteric reissue with the LP-version and the version on Complete. Because the LP is very long, the dynamics are improved on the CD's; the Esoteric version sounds very fresh to...

Bought her CD "Home" a couple of month ago after watching a documentary on new-classical composers like Joep Beving, Einaudi and Rani. She works with a E.S.T.-like jazzband too.

^^Mark just told me there won't be a CD-version of this one (yet?), despite the promotional information.

The first, recently released CD-version? https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/23861735?ev=rb

Cool. Reminds me of Call Me "Kai", the archive box from Kevin Gilbert.

It was from this Shazam-page: https://www.shazam.com/nl/track/101876634/brother-to-brother

Maybe this one works (featuring the complete album Carnival):

Here's an instrumental cover of Brother To Brother by Norwegian drummer Pål Thowsen, which appears on his album Carnival from 1981:

CD-release of Blow Out by Håkon Graf, Sveinung Hovesjø, Jon Eberson and Jon Christensen:...

Makes sense regarding the shipping costs.

Sarah Pillow (close with Mark Wagnon of Brand X-fame) is specialized in transforming early music to jazz-rock (amongst other genres):

Here's a 10 years old version of Dido's Lament

Good news for US-fans!

Looks like there will be a CD release on July 22 according to the website of Just For Kicks: https://justforkicks.de/en/shop/progressive/13031/green-asphalt

I guess it won't hurt to mention their official store: https://www.marillion.com/shop/albums/remast57.htm

Pete Carr: Multiple Flash
Nice fusion-album from 1978. I have it on LP, but found a cheap copy on CD (Wounded Bird Records) recently.

See post #74. I also have a copy of that concert including those two tracks. Got it years before Bruford released in on DVD and later on CD and LP.

New concert featuring Yoshihisa Shimizu, Kenso's leader and guitarist. They'll perform a composition of Phil Miller so it seems (read the blog below).

That must have given you some bad times I guess. Hopefully you were able to buy the DVD from Alan Benjamin (from his Advent-shop) in time.

Thanks for this well cleaned version of this clip. After I first saw it some years ago, I hoped Bruford would have include it as a bonus-section when he released the Rock Goes To College-show on DVD...

Just listened a bit to Psicomagia, but that's a bit too rough for me (although I'm a jazz-rock fan).

Cool. I have three DVD's featuring Jeff Beck, all quite different. This on (very energetic), the disc "Jeff Beck Performing This Week... Live At Ronnie Scott's" (great musicianship in a more intimate...

The first three albums were remastered by Esoteric in 2012. Those weren't used for the boxset I believe.

Just in case you haven't searched PE on the subject yet, in this thread a couple of the same and different titles are being mentioned:...

Thinking of this "comment" I think it would have been more fitting if the other "Bill Evans" wouldn't have been a jazz-pianist, but a saxophonist...:oops

Correct. The live-performances are all from rehearsals before the tour began.
It's all in English, with German subtitles.

Thank God Bill Evans didn't play sax in The Muffins... ;)

Watched this one on Arte last night:

Genesis - The Last Domino ? Documentary


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rdEiqkoAG0

Correct. My comment was to clarify the mentioning of "TopPop" at the end of title.
When you google TopPop and the title of this song you'll only find this clip, which makes it unclear. I'm sure I...

Maybe with the view from today, but in those days there still were enough folks (including me) who didn't buy the punk-revolution and still bought their prog-icons. But I agree that UK Mark II would...

I haven't checked but I heard the band played different setlists every concert. This were the songs played last Saturday in Utrecht, The Netherlands:
