Keyboardist Walter Bishop, Jr. But a mere two years later, Bishop, Jr. Contrary to the album title, the name of the band was not The 4th Cycle; instead, as the liner notes put it, the name reflected 'Bishop's composition and improvisational techniques based on the Cycle of 4ths and his various personal musical cycles as performer, student and teacher.
All in remastered sound with liner notes by Pat Thomas. First-ever vinyl reissue of a long-lost classic! Jazz, Blues. This newly discovered live-recording of a performance of the Love Supreme suite is a revelation. Recorded at The Penthouse in Seattle on October 2, , this recording transports the listener to a prime seat for piece of musical history.
While not studio-quality audio, the power of the performance shines through. Label: Impulse! Alto saxophone master Lee Konitz joins with the great Gerry Mulligan on baritone saxophone and legendary trumpeter Chet Baker on a half-live, half-studio program of standards along with one Mulligan original. The group is supported by bassists Carson Smith and Joe Mondragon with Larry Bunker on drums for this spontaneous and inventive jazz treasure.
Bop, Cool Jazz. A transitional album on which the band moved from Syd Barrett's relatively concise and vivid songs to spacy, ethereal material with lengthy instrumental passages. Barrett's influence is still felt he actually did manage to contribute one track, the jovial "Jugband Blues" , and much of the material retains a gentle, fairy-tale ambience.
Space Rock, Psychedelic Rock. Roll up, roll up. Welcome to Nirvana's Greatest Hits, you know the band that changed the face of modern rock music. All your favourites are here, and there's a new track too "You Know You're Right" , conveniently placed in pole position. Their debut Bleach is criminally under-represented, with only "About A Girl" making an appearance.
Then we get "Been A Son" and "Sliver" from the interim sessions prior to Nevermind, before coming across most of the first side of that classic album "Smells Like Teen Spirit", "Come As You Are", "Lithium" and "In Bloom" all storming songs which remind the listener exactly why Nirvana broke the alt-rock mould.
The next section comprises a selection from Nirvana's swan song, In Utero. The latter makes for particularly difficult listening in retrospect, with Cobain's tortured voice insisting that "we never lost control". Less than six months later he committed suicide. Of course, the main reason most Nirvana fans will buy this record is the only new track on the album, "You Know You're Right". While the initial impact of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" is almost impossible to eclipse remember where you were the first time you heard that intro and those chords?
A rave from the grave. A poignant reminder of what might have been. An almost unbearable sense of bathos. Listening to a dead man snarling out his last gasp of righteous sarcasm. Who these barbed lyrics are directed towards is a matter of debate.
The fact that the remaining members of Nirvana have been locked in litigation with Cobain's widow regarding the release of a box set of both old and unreleased material for over two years may be neither here nor there. One can only wonder what the notoriously cynical and anti-corporate Kurt would have made of it all. All we are is all we are". Nuff said. DGC — , Sub Pop — Grunge, Alternative Rock.

Front cover is an image of an abstract watercolor by David Carbone apparently the original pressing had a small pasted-on print in the front cover and a small sheet of paste-on credits on the back cover. According to the booklet that Connors wrote for the release of these albums -- and they were albums, issued in editions of copies each with no copies sold he pitched them into a dumpster!
Artists and musicians surrounded him in the other apartments during these years, and he began experimenting with new forms of improvisation. The short-line, long-form, open-ended excursions are without beginning or destination; in fact, nothing is evident here but the journey itself.
It's easy to see the work of his greatest influence, painter Mark Rothko, in the formless darkness -- a void punctuated by sound and garlanded by nothing but space. On volume one, Connors' voice attempts to understand the placement of his hands, to moan in tone, as it were, to find the root of the mystery, but like Charles Olson's Maximus Poems or Stephane Mallarme's A Tomb for Anatole, the end of each line trails off before another begins, not knowing if it connected or not, not perceiving how large or small the statement itself is or the shape of its form, but only that it needs to be "gotten down" as an extension of his very breath.
The first two volumes of this work, comprising the first disc and lasting nearly two hours, delve deeply into the principle of the search itself as a goal. Tonalities, resonances, and dissonances are played, tossed out, shaped, and reformed as lines on a canvas, all of them to be revisited later, or not. Technique was never an issue, the instrument has to be played, and needs to speak on its own. These are the dictums Connors followed. Vinyl, 12", Limited Edition, Reissue.
Edition of copies. Comes with an 8 page booklet. Recorded in New Haven, Conn. February 20, According to the booklet that Connors wrote for the release of these albums -- and they were albums, issued in editions of copies each with no copies sold he pitched them into a dumpster! Sufjan Stevens and Angelo De Augustine have paired up for a collaborative project that does just that. The source material is highbrow, lowbrow, and everything in between.
A cornerstone of zombie horror Night of the Living Dead , a touchstone psychological thriller Silence of the Lambs , a high-octane action flick Point Break , and a Bette Davis classic All About Eve are inspiration for songs that seek to investigate the meaning of life, the meaning of death, and everything in between. The movies are only catalysts; the songs take liberty with their source material, allowing for bold tangents, often running wild with existential inquiry.
This album runs the gamut and has fun with it, even while its songwriters remain fully rooted in the melancholy folk idioms they are known for. Vinyl, LP, Album. Now, between the recently established film division of his Brainfeeder label, numerous scoring projects, and his foray into directing with the animated feature Kuso, the artist born Steven Ellison is increasingly making his mark on film as well as music. The man did get his start composing Adult Swim bumpers, after all.
Flying Lotus ultimately asks us to consider electronic music in similarly fantastical terms: Why limit yourself to one style or school of sound when an infinitude of timbres and textures is at your fingertips? Stringing together an incredibly well paced hour of power, pulling out breaks, techno, bass and industrial tracks to lace the narrative. The mixing is tight and expertly timed, condesing the arc of a classic club set through a well considered selection of high BPM bangers.
