NEW RELEASE FROM ANDY EDWARDS

Andy Edwards' latest release is called "The Aries Sessions". 

This album collects the music created on two sessions that happened in March/April 2026. And when recording the sessions with Martin and Chanan we found out many of the contributors had their birthdays at this time and so I decided to call this 'The Aries Sessions'.

Featuring Andy Edwards, Martin Speake, Chanan Hanspal, Wendy Kirkland, Pat Sprakes, BD Lenz, and Mark Hartley.


GHOST RHYTHMS - MADELEINE

  • Ghost Rhythms: Madeleine
        (2015, 2cd, France, laboratoire d’exploration musicale lem04)
"Madeleine" was Ghost Rhythms' third album, the fourth to be released on the Laboratoire d'Exploratoin Musicale record label.
The 17-piece band released 22 pieces on this 2 CD set.
More atmospheric or even cinematic compared to their prior albums, and very enjoyable.

DANIEL ROHR - ZAPPA! - ALLES ÜBER FRANK - ZAPPANALE 2006

  • Daniel Rohr: Zappa! Alles Über Frank - Zappanale 2006
        (2006, cdr promo, --, private release / daniel rohr)
A little while ago, I got hold of this fine little item: a promotional CDR with Daniel Rohr's performance at the 2006 Zappanale Festival.
If I'm not mistaken, Daniel performed there twice. Once in the theatre and then again on the main stage.
I don't know which one of the two got captured on this little gem, but it sounds great and it comes in a beautiful package including a 12-page booklet and an imprinted CDR label.

Zappa! All about Frank. In German.



PINK FLOYD FEAT. FRANK ZAPPA - AMOUGIES 1969


  • Pink Floyd feat. Frank Zappa: Amougies 1969
        (2024, lp bootleg, Europe, great dane records)
The Amougies Pink Floyd / Zappa jam saw (another) bootleg LP release about two years ago.

Great looking package, and on "colour splatter vinyl". A nice addition.


FLEA

Track Star tests Flea's Music Knowledge

Here's 'Maggot Brain' from Flea's latest album.
His tribute to George Clinton and Eddie Hazel.


GHOST RHYTHMS - GHOST RHYTHMS

  • Ghost Rhythms: Ghost Rhythms
        (2007, cd, France, laboratoire d’exploration musicale lem01)

The first album by French ensemble Ghost Rhythms, titled "Ghost Rhythms", was released in 2007 on their own label, Laboratoire d’Exploration Musicale (LEM01).
The band, led by drummer Xavier Gélard and pianist Camille Petit, was established as a collective of self-taught musicians and classically trained players, with this debut setting the stage for their blend of avant-garde progressive rock and jazz fusion

Beautiful !!
