Led Zeppelin – Physical Graffitti not sure if it’s the remastering or just the fact that I haven’t really listened to PG with any depth in a while but the new reissue is fantastic sounding
Crazyhead – Desert Orchid double Cd picked up cheap from Amazon, fairly fizzes along, even better than I remembered
Mountain – Flowers of Evil,Twin Peaks
Boris – Feedbacker, Heavy Rocks [orange version] all that’s good & bad about Boris is reflected in the fact that you need to qualify which version of Heavy Rocks you are listening to. Cracking music though, Heavy Rocks is aptly named as it RAWKS mightily, and Feedbacker is a mighty beast also
Blown Out – Jet Black Hallucinations fine new release from the M Vest camp, D/L only at the moment due to pressing problems, first listen has it up to the usual high standards, spaced out pysch heaviness deluxe
Dr Feelgood – All Through The City the Wilko years , if you’ve heard this you know how good it is, if you haven’t rectify that immediately Dr Feelgood are one of the few bands I could feel happy recommending to everyone
Diamond Head – S/t nwobhm classic
Humble Pie – Rockin’ The Fillmore 4cds of deservedly legendry live shows, does exactly what it says on the tin
Rory Gallagher – Irish Tour 74, 6cds this time, even better than Humble Pie
Nazareth – S/t,Exercises Salvo 2fer disc, shows the many sides of the Naz
John Luther Adams – The Wind In High Places not sure where modern classical ends and new age ambient starts but this skirts around the borders of both , possibly with potential film score thrown in
Gaye Bykers On Acid – Live 87 certainly sounds like happy ,greasy and drugged up can’t complain then, also has lots of guitars which can only be good [can’t it]
Free Bandcamp list
Groan – very NWOBHM influenced, lots of songs about Wizards [usually on drugs] great but no ground is broken, actually this applies to almost all free bandcamp stuff, originality usually takes a second place to whatever style is required, thanks to mooncat for the tip on Groan

Pyramidion – VU meets jam band, well good
http://pyramidion.bandcamp.com/
Ice Dragon – sounds like someone can’t make his mind up if he wants to be Blue Cheer or the Beatles so does both at the same time, all over the shop but in a good way, I bet these guys have a shit hot record collection

Ruby The Hatchet – more heavy pysch, a bit grim Mazzy Star, nice
http://thehatchet.bandcamp.com/
Death Hound – want to be Electric Wizard, let down by pointless growled vox which is a shame as the music is better and more varied than many of the wizard clones out there
