Bit of a krauty week last week...

Tangerine Dream - Bootleg Box Set Vol 1
Been really enjoying these live sets, despite the lofi quality.

Ash Ra Tempel - S/T, Schwingungen

Can - Future Days

Cosmic Jokers - Sci-Fi Party
Hadn't really listened to this much previously, but this week it's been on a lot.

Non-krauty:

Kiss - Alive!

Madness - Liberty of Norton Folgate
Anyone who used to like the nutty boys really ought to get hold of this. Even after a couple of months of listening to it, I still think this is right up there amongst their classics.

Led Zep - Presence

Status Quo - Piledriver

Jethro Tull - Minstrel in the Gallery

KC's Neotopia stuff off their MySpace page. Some great stuff there, check it out.

Abbey Road, MMT, Sgt Pepper and Past Masters Stereo Remasters - very nice but not earth shattering differences to the post 66 recordings. Improvements seem to mainly lie in bits of detail in the drumming, a little more heft to the bass guitar and a more rounded sound to the sfx, mellotrons and orchestral instruments. There is also more space round some of the singing. £38 worth? Over time for sure but hardly essential if you already have the vinyl or the 90s cds. I hear the pre 67 stuff is a different story.

Talking Heads - Fear of Music & Remain In Light Remasters -
Good to dig these out again. As remasters go these really are revelatory. Different records. Different band. Astonishing.

Schoenberg Variations Op 31 - Von Karajan
Anton Webern: Bach Fugue (Ricercare) no.2 - Boulez
Rosas bought the house down on Friday with their Bach, Webern, Schoenberg thing. Amazing music. Astonishing dancing.

The Horrors - both albums. Bubblegum gloom-flavoured post-punk revivalism. Clever and fun. Are to The Cure what McFly are to Cheap Trick.

Culture & The Djs - Various
Don't Check Me With No Lightwieght Stuff - I Roy
Some great examples of what is a forgotten art from the pre-digital era.

Bill Nelson - Clocks & Dials
One of last year's five Nelson releases. Six if you count this as a double. Slacker!

Bach Goldberg Variations - Glenn Gould
Two complete versions recorded 26 years apart. An instant object lesson in the power of inerpretation in classical music. As different as Coltrane on Kind of Blue and Sun Ship. The firebrand determined to write his name in the sky on one, the mature artist telling us something about what he has learned in the intervening quarter century on the other. Hugely recommended. If you only own one Bach record make it these two. If you follow me.
