America Here & Now Sessions - Expo Seventy I came across these recently and got my hands on this pretty much straight away. Should appeal to fans of the likes of Follakzoid and Mugstar. Amrita – Loop Guru I never rated this as highly as their fab debut, Duniya, but hearing it in its own right all these yeasr later it is still a damn fine album. How The West Was Won – Peter Perrett Strangely enough I don't think I ever totally gave up on us having another PP release of some variety to savour, but now it's out it suddenly seems rather amazing that there is one! Anyway, it's really very good – very like The Only Ones obviously – and the production is top notch. Animals Suns & Atoms – Tarwater Quite simply one of my favourite albums of the past twenty years. Endless Nights – Vacant Lots Recent album from Alan Vega endorsed duo and indeed he makes an appearance on the closing track here. And for those who like him and already aware there's a posthumous Vegaa album out any time now. Also... Dubbing It Studio 1 Style – The Aggrovators Alexandria – Adrian Borland & the Citizens Push The Sky Away - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds Skeleton Tree - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds S/T – Grinderman Doctor Syntax – Edwyn Collins Guerilla Grow – Dope Damage & Joy – JAMC Gargoyle – Mark Lanegan Band The Correct Use Of Soap – Magazine Alma Matters (CDS) – Morrissey Second Flight – Pilot Post Pop Depression – Iggy Pop Sterntaler – Michael Rother Polyte Deshaies – Les Sorciers Du Theil Why Be Blue – Suicide Mystic Man – Peter Tosh James Brown's Funky Summer (Mojo CD) – V/A Wings At The Speed Of Sound – Wings The First Letter - Wir

Proms - John Williams & Thingy Adams (you know I've forgotten his first name)Harmonium Seal - System Sufjan Stevens - Seven Swans. To my money he peaked about 10 years ago with this and Illinois. Feel free to disagree. This might be my fav, anyway. Gnod - Just Say No... Well I personally didn't enjoy it anywhere near as much as Infinity Machines * giving it another listen. Didn't like the first track much, but people sounds more like my kinda thing

Asimov – Truth. Second album from Portuguese heavy psych/space rock duo. Nicely rough around the edges, tis good: https://asimovstenarmusik.bandcamp.com/album/truth Tunga Moln – III. Initially appealing Scando updating of the early Iron Maiden sound, but a bit samey overall. Bark Psychosis – Hex. Getting the big reissue treatment soon, no doubt with much trumpet blowing from the press. But personally, while this might be the album for which the term ‘post-rock’ was originally coined, I’ve never quite got over my disappointment with it after the astonishing 20 minute plus single ‘Scum’ which came before it. Yes, it’s all very lush and nocturnal, but often as not, it doesn’t really go anywhere – driving endlessly over the Westway at 3am as a metaphor might sound like heaven to some, but in terms of atmosphere and dynamics, there’s nothing here that’s a patch on ‘Scum’. The whispered/murmured vocals also do my head in after a while. And the comparison with late period Talk Talk, which was entirely valid re ‘Scum’, really isn’t that strong – Hex is more like a proggy take on the classic 4AD sound. It’s not a bad album, just not as great as many claim. Galactic Explorers – Epitaph For Venus. Another one of those obscure ‘Unknown Deutschland’ bands, this duo are very much in the Tangerine Dream/Klaus Schulze category, if not in the same league. Some nice, unhurried spacey ambient stuff though, worth a listen: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ok-iAJFGyag VA – Even A Tree Can Shed Tears: Japanese Folk And Rock 1969-1973. More reverent packaging of the obscure-ish past. On first listen, I was a bit disappointed the artists here weren’t more ‘Japanese-sounding’ (if that isn’t a crass thing to say), with many of the tracks being very serviceable pastiches of the US/UK folk rock of the time, but that’s about it. However, further listens may reveal hidden depths… Blue Oyster Cult – Secret Treaties. My older brother had Some Enchanted Evening, which I loved from an early age, but I’ve been pretty slow catching up on BOC’s back catalogue in the intervening 40 (yikes!) years. Having not grown up in America in the 70s, I have a feeling I’m never going to completely get this band, though their combination of piss-taking and seriousness, raw power and rock parody, the mysterious and the daft, obviously appeals to British ears. And you can’t argue with an album that contains ‘Flaming Telepaths’ (if you’ve never heard it, the Espers’ version is particularly awesome: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxj2D2jEqok ) Sun Dial – Other Way Out. Was too busy shoegazing or something when this originally came out at the start of the 90s. Interesting bridge between old and nu psych, particularly like this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_YxPV9GuWHQ N is for… Neon Pearl – s/t. Not an album as such, but a collection of demoes from 1967 retrospectively reissued around the turn of the century, point of interest being that Neon Pearl was Pete Dunton and Bernard Jink’s first band, they of the mighty T2. (Oh, coincidental connection with Sun Dial too, whose Acme label first put this album out) This is a collection of mostly moody psych pop songs, in fact downright gloomy in places, particularly given the year. No lost classics, though I think one track is a very early version of T2’s ‘Fantasy’, but Dunton’s strange, shivery vocal delivery is already fully-formed: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rIXHOP5nnC4
