PANZERBALLETT - LIVE AT THEATRON MUNICH 2013
- panzerballett: live at theatron munich 2013
(2013, dvd, ger, gentle art of music)
The brand-new DVD, "Live At Theatron Munich 2013" arrived today. This is top. Great arrangements, technically incredible, and very funny. A perfect combination.
Too bad that "Ein Bisschen Frieden" had to be left out on a last minute notice because the band did not get permission from the author.

FUZZ ORCHESTRA - MORIR POR LA PATRIA
- fuzz orchestra: morir por la patria
(2012, cd, italy, cheap satanism records)
Inspired by the heavy '70s rock music and influenced by Ennio Morricone, "Morir Por La Patria" should get this Italian trio a bit of extra attention.
I like it. Listen to the sample below to get an impression.
The band has been touring Italy and Europe on an almost continuous basis for the last couple of years. Here's there recent schedule.
The album got released on the Cheap Satanism Records label. (don't you just love that name?)

PREVIOUSLY UNISSUED SUN RA ALBUM TO BE RELEASED SOON
The Roaratorio website mentions Sun Ra's "Other Strange Worlds" album on their News page, which should mean that they are about to release the LP.
Over at the Saturn newsgroup, gscala adds:
"early 2014 should see the release of a previously unissued Sun Ra LP from 1966, entitled Other Strange Worlds. It draws from the same sessions as Strange Strings -- perhaps the most singular recording in Ra's entire canon -- but while that album featured a full size Arkestra, this one finds Ra exploring similar territory with a small ensemble. "

COPERNICUS - L'ETERNITE IMMEDIATE
- copernicus: l'éternité immédiate
(2013, cd, usa, nevermore / moonjune)
Poet, visionary, philosopher and recording artist Copernicus will be glad to hear that the very essence of matter is getting all this attention.
Copernicus claims that nothing exists.
On a subatomic level, nothing can stay the same from one moment to the next, therefore nothing can exist. We are all living an illusion.
Originally released in the English language in 2001, "Immediate Eternity" is getting a French re-issue on Nevermore / Moonjune Records.
Copernicus put french vocals (spoken word) on the already recorded (improvised) music.
An impressive release.

Here's a track from the original (English) release
DAVID MORNEAU - LOVE SONGS
- david morneau: love songs
(2013, cd, usa, composers concordance records)
For his latest project, "Love Songs", the lyrics for each track pair one of Shakespeare's sonnets with a contemporary poem. The music ranges from jazzy pop to classical.
I thought this was a great concept. I loved the idea.
The album itself is as impressive as I hoped it would be.
Expectations were met.
Go to David Morneau's website for more info.
Music samples (and poems !) can be found here:
http://5of4.com/love_songs/
The album will get released on Composers Concordance Records on November 19, 2013.
Check it out !
CHROOM HOOF - CHROME BLACK GOLD
- chrome hoof: chrome black gold
(2013, cd, usa, cuneiform records)
I may only understand half of it, but that's exactly the kind of introduction that makes me curious.
After a first listen, I have to admit that the album indeed is very entertaining. It's also very energetic.
This British ensemble mixes heavy funk and electro beats with every imaginable genre.
Fascinating, to say the least.
'When The Lightning Strikes' should give you a pretty accurate idea of what Chrome Hoof is about.
Out on the Cuneiform Records label:
www.cuneiformrecords.com
Available from Mandaï:

The Chrome Hoof live shows are also said to be quite impressive. Here's a clip.

SIMAKDIALOG - THE 6TH STORY
- simakdialog: the 6th story
(2013, cd, usa, moonjune)
And now there's "The 6th Story", the brand-new and sixth simakDialog album.
Led by Riza Arshad (compositions & keyboard), Adhithya Pratama (bass) and Tohpati, simakDialog offers a delicate blend of rock, jazz and world music.
Also more than noteworthy on "The 6th Story" is the contribution by Endang Ramdan, Erlan Suwardana and Cucu Kurnia, the three percussionists.
This is great.
Recommended listening.

Here's a live version of 'For Once And Never', a composition that can also be found on "The 6th Story".

SNAKEFINGER'S HISTORY OF THE BLUES - LIVE IN EUROPE
- snakefinger's history of the blues: live in europe
(2013, cd, ger, promising music)
9 (nine!!) bonus tracks, extensive liner notes by Eugene Chadbourne and by various former bandmembers, and a superb-looking package.
Snakefinger takes a lookt at the history of the blues.
Hard to believe that this is the same person who worked and recorded with The Residents and who wrote and performed 'Save Me From Dali', but this is some great stuff.
Essential !
Featuring Steve Mackay and Eric Drew Feldman as part of the band !!

I KNOW YOU WELL MISS CLARA - CHAPTER ONE
- i know you well miss clara: chapter one
(2013, cd, usa, moonjune mjr057)
The first thing that you notice when you take the actual album in your hands is the stunning artwork by Angki Purbandono. The piece on the cover is called "Back Off Guys!" and it's from 2012.
Do yourself a favor and google "Angki Purbandono". You're in for a treat.
The actual album is entitled "Chapter One" and it's as gorgeous as the package suggests.
The band is led by guitarist and composer Reza Ryan and by keyboard player Adi Wijiya, and the music is a fine mixture of jazz and progressive rock.
Unpredictable, astounding, varied, modern jazz, ...
My cup of tea.
I Know You Well Miss Clara is not an everyday name for a band. Reza Ryan explains it in the liner notes interview with Sid Smith:
"I think Clara is a hot name!" laughs Rez. "But seriously, it's like when you have a girlfriend or a partner you get to know them fairly well. I think if people want to hear my compoistions they need to listen fairly well too. So, in a way, Miss Clara is ther personification of my music."
The album got released on the MoonJune Records label.
www.moonjune.com
Highly recommended !!
Here are some samples including the extraoradinary 'Pop Sick Love Carousel'.

VARIOUS ARTISTS - THE BLORP ESETTE GAZETTE - VOLUME ONE
- various artists: blorp esette magazine - fall 2013
(2013, cd, usa, transparency)
About three years later, the LAFMS released the second volume of Blorp Esette. A 2LP-set, again with a cover drawing by Don Van Vliet.
Mastermind behind these Blorp Esette samplers was one of the LAFMS founding members: Ace Farren Ford.
15 years ago, Ace Farren Ford teamed up with Michael Sheppard (of the Transparency record label), and the both of them released a 4CD "Blorp Esette" set that not only included the two early vinyl albums, but also a lot of unheard material.
And now there's "The Blorp Esette Gazette", the audio magazine.
It's brand-new and it's too weird for words.
This is music from the other side of the fence.
Check it out.

DEWA BUDJANA - JOGED KAHYANGAN
- dewa budjana: joged kahyangan
(2013, cd, usa, moonjune mjr059)
Fortunately, label manager Leonardo Pavlovic has an excellent taste and a keen eye to spot talent from a far distance.
This can be taken litterally, as New York City based Moonjune Records signed Indonesion guitarist Dewa Budjana to the label.
Earlier this year, Moonjune released Dewa Budjana's very impressive "Dawai In Paradise" album. And now there's "Joged Kahyangan".
Again, Dewa Budjana shows why he is considered a top guitar player, combining jazz and rock with his Indonesian background.
"Joged Kahyangan", which translates as "Beautiful Heaven", features Larry Goldings on Hammond organ, Bob Mintzer on sax, Jimmy Johnson on bass and Peter Erskine on drums.
Beautiful compositions, great guitar playing.
Recommended listening.

Mike Keneally has released two bonus track to his latest "You Must Be This Tall" album. These tracks were made available for free for those who helped to promote the album through the various (social) media.
Mike Keneallly:
" 'The Upkeep Of My Volcano' came from trying to figure out what to do with the basic material which ultimately became "Kidzapunk" on the finished album. It features a completely different melody/lyric over a much-shortened version of the basic track. For more information about volcano maintenance please refer to the book The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry.
I'm pretty sure that these tracks will be made available to a wider audience soon. They deserve to be heard by every MK fan.

THE BANNED FROM UTIOPIA IN CONCERT IN BRNO
ZAPPA PLAYS ZAPPA "ROXY AND ELSEWHERE" TOUR
Hello
Friends,
The
countdown is on! We are only days away from departure for the extended
"Roxy & Elsewhere" tour. The "Elsewhere" portion is
taking us on a return trip through Canada and the UK. Plus some far-reaching
European cities like Helsinki and a new stop in Estonia!
So much
of the material on the "Roxy" has a greasy layer of funk and groove
making it one of the most enjoyable records to listen and certainly some of the
most fun music to play live on stage. Come and do your part in "The Be-Bop
Tango!"
Alongside
the "Roxy" I have compiled a wildly varied assortment of other tunes
spanning FZ's career for us to sprinkle in to the set. We will be premiering
tunes we have never played before including the "Orchestral
Favorites" arrangement of "The Duke Of Prunes." It's replete
with gobs of feedback-laden guitar.
Stay
tuned for a big announcement on how to enter yourself in an upcoming contest
that could win you the opportunity to see a Zappa Plays Zappa "Roxy"
show and possibly win you a Gibson Frank Zappa Roxy SG!
I look
forward to seeing you on the road!

STEVE VAI DVD BOOTLEG
- steve vai: the aching hunger 11 - holland 2005
(20??, dvd-bootleg, ??, ??)
I recently came across this factory pressed Steve Vai bootleg. It's a recording of the two Dutch TV-shows from December 2005, showing "Aching Hunger Phase II" from the July 2005 concerts.
The '11' in the title instead of "II" shows just how much of a fan produced this disc...

A couple of years ago, Italian jouranlist Michele Pizzi wrote a 500-page book on Frank Zappa, entitled "Frank Zappa - For President! - Testi Commentati'.
The book is in Italian. It got published by Arcana Edizioni.
I added the cover to the Frank Zappa "Books" section earlier today.

SUN RA PICTURES
Go here: http://lee-santa.artistwebsites.com/art/all/sun+ra+at+the+bottom+line+1976/all &
you'll see some new stuff from my 1976 Bottom Line NYC photo shoot that
I had forgotten about. I uploaded 27 images of which 9 or 10 had been
uploaded before into the Sun Ra Gallery, so at least 17 images have not
been seen before. Some of 'em are a little outta focus which is probably
why I forgot about 'em.
