Charles Mingus - Ah Uhm. Like it

when I first heard that lp I heard (pre-)echoes of mid 60s mod stuff like The who & Small Faces in it. I think it was something of an influence on a lot of that material, or possibly Mingus in general was. You can hear that it took an influence from a lot of blues/r&b itself.

Guru Guru - Kanguru. Top Krautyness.

I know this is Stephen Stapleton's favourite of their records. Not sure if it's their best. I guess their material falls into at least 2 categories because of line up changes, 1st 3 and the later stuff. Think 1st 3 are heavier guitar burnout scorchers which are extreme enough to verge on the industrial and later stuff while remaining pretty psychedelic is a lot less extreme ? Did find the early later stuff did retain some worth after hearing it dismissed beforehand.
