Two weeks' worth...

Northwest – I & II. These guys are a bit of a find, like a neo-classical combo of Kate Bush and Talk Talk. Beautiful voice, wonderful orchestration, arty with a capital ‘A’… https://thisisnorthwest.bandcamp.com/album/ii

Antoni Maiovvi & ANTA – Church Of The Second Sun. Heavy, bashing you over the head prog/synth soundtrack stuff, good

Plankton Wat – Future Times. Bloke from Eternal Tapestry, fuzzy psych Americana plus added 70s-style electronica, has its moments.

Onsegen Ensemble – Fear. Yet another Finnish space/prog/avant rock crew of note, good: https://onsegenensemble.bandcamp.com/album/fear

Domenique Dumont – People On Sunday

Hawkwind – Live 1976. A couple of soundboards from Oxford and Dunstable, evocative stuff

David Bowie – Metrobolist. So, the drums are still too prominent on the ‘title track’ and there’s a bit of unnecessary vocalising on ‘Black Country Rock’, but overall, this is a terrific sounding remaster from Tony “I’m just going to make my bass a little louder…” Visconti

Black Sabbath – Vol 4. Upcoming 2021 remaster, also sounds good, though ‘Snowblind’ is never punchy enough for me

Iron Butterfly – Live / Metamorphosis

MC5 – Back In The USA / High Time. I had never heard these before. Err, am I allowed to say “patchy”?

Giles, Giles & Fripp – The Brondesbury Tapes. Some terrific stuff on this, basically recordings made just before the group morphed into King Crimson, such as: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq4skTo7vSk

VA – Pyramid Edits

VA – Living On The Hill (CD 1)
