Reissues
Clarity
To mark 50-years since a 22 year old Michael Gregory Jackson recorded his groundbreaking first release, "Clarity / Circle / Triangle / Square", recorded with the mind blowing group of his contemporaries Oliver Lake, David Murray and Leo Smith. This album is like no other I know, a new world, finding a perfect balance between multiple genres. Moved-By- Sound is very excited and honored to be involved in releasing the first reissue authorized by Michael Gregory Jackson since the original release i…
Stranded
Stranded gave Roxy Music their first UK No’1 album and brought with it an undeniable presence that would eventually see Roxy Music’s American audience take note! It was becoming all too clear that Roxy Music were indeed a band ahead of their time.
For Your Pleasure
On Roxy Music's debut, the tensions between Brian Eno and Bryan Ferry propelled their music to great, unexpected heights, and for most of the group's second album, For Your Pleasure, the band equals, if not surpasses, those expectations. However, there are a handful of moments where those tensions become unbearable, as when Eno wants to move toward texture and Ferry wants to stay in more conventional rock territory; the nine-minute "The Bogus Man" captures such creative tensions perfectly, and i…
Moanin'
Moanin’ is the sound of Art Blakey turning a band into a congregation, with Lee Morgan’s trumpet, Benny Golson’s tenor saxophone, Bobby Timmons’s piano, and Jymie Merritt’s bass all testifying over Blakey’s unmistakable cymbal crashes and press rolls. From the call‑and‑response of the title track to the burning hard‑bop vehicles that follow, the record distils church‑infused, blues‑drenched celebration into a small‑group format. Each soloist brings a distinct voice – Morgan’s bright fire, Golson…
Out To Lunch!
Out to Lunch! remains one of the most strikingly original statements on Blue Note. Eric Dolphy marshals Freddie Hubbard on trumpet, Bobby Hutcherson on vibraphone, Richard Davis on bass, and Tony Williams on drums into a unit that treats his knotty compositions as springboards rather than straitjackets. Themes like “Hat and Beard” arrive full of angular intervals and odd accents, while the rhythm team tilts and lurches under them, propelled by Williams’ restless cymbal work and Davis’ flexible g…
Maiden Voyage
On Maiden Voyage, Herbie Hancock turns the small jazz group into an ocean vessel, steering a dream team of Freddie Hubbard (trumpet), George Coleman (tenor sax), Ron Carter (bass), and Tony Williams (drums) through a suite of sea‑evoking pieces. Modal harmonies, open forms, and long, swelling melodies create a sense of expanse; Carter and Williams suggest tides and undertows, while Hubbard and Coleman trace arcs that feel both exploratory and inevitable. Hancock’s piano balances delicacy with fo…
A Date With Elvis
Originally planned for 1985 to join in the onslaught of Elvisʼs 50th Anniversary commemorative reissues, A Date With Elvis came out in early 1986 in Europe only, where it went on to sell more than 200,000 copies. The only album featuring The Cramps as a three-piece band (Poison Ivy doubled on bass), it careens from the sociopathic advice of “People Ainʼt No Good” (later covered by Nick Cave) to mind-on-vacation odes like “Aloha From Hell” and “Kizmiaz” (where The Cramps prove they were exotic wh…
Il Ras del Quartiere
On Il ras del quartiere, Goblin reroute their horror‑prog DNA into neon‑lit funk and sleek electronics, rescuing a cult 1983 Vanzina film from VHS purgatory with a newly remixed, visually lavish edition that finally gives these four pieces their own stage.
Essen 1970
A document of one of British folk-rock's great might-have-beens, captured just weeks before it ended. Recorded live at the Grugahalle in Essen on 23 October 1970, during the third Essen Pop & Blues Festival, Essen 1970 finds Fotheringay - the short-lived band Sandy Denny formed on leaving Fairport Convention - at the height of its powers, playing with the confidence of a group that believed it had years ahead of it. Within three months, it would be gone.
Fotheringay took its name from Denny's ow…
Keep On Truckin'
One of the prized private press rarities of early 1970s American rock. Originally issued in 1972 on the tiny East Coast Records imprint, Keep On Truckin' is the lone album by Surprize, a Philadelphia five-piece whose single recorded statement - heavy, bluesy, psychedelic, and threaded with organ - has spent decades near the top of collectors' want lists, original copies nearly impossible to find and counterfeited more than once along the way.
The band had been together only eight months when, in…
Emile Jacotey
This is one of the cornerstones of French progressive music. Originally issued in 1975, Émile Jacotey is the fourth LP by Ange, the band from Belfort that stood, by the middle of the decade, as the undisputed leaders of the French rock scene - and it remains among the most singular concept albums the era produced anywhere in Europe.
The album's great achievement lies in how it binds together two major cultural currents of 1970s France: the national passion for progressive rock, and what came to …

Fantasy
On Fantasy, Piero Umiliani resurfaces four decades late with a perfectly preserved final statement: a 1983 library dream where analog synths, light orchestration and soft rhythms drift between science‑fiction shimmer and easy‑listening warmth, closing his universe on a quietly visionary note.
Embryo's Rache
**Gatefold black vinyl, remastered** One year on from Opal, the Munich collective threw open a window that would never quite close again. Embryo had announced themselves in 1970 with a debut steeped in dark, psychedelic murk. Embryo's Rache - their second, issued on United Artists in 1971 - is the sound of a band stepping into the light and looking east. Founded by drummer and keyboard player Christian Burchard with multi-instrumentalist Edgar Hofmann, the group here absorbed flutist Hansi Fisch…
Astral Disaster
At the turn of the millenium the original „Astral Disaster“ subcription-only vinyl release was somewhat of an Unholy Grail for Coil collectors!
Virtually unobtainable in its original fiercely limited format of only 99 copies, it is the only album apart from the original „Musick to play in the Dark“ record to combine the genius of Balance and Sleazy with both Drew McDowall and Thighpaulsandra's talents. Like „Musick“ it is an essentially tidal/lunar record with literal washes of sound enveloping …
The Petrified Forest
Norwegian ambient maestro Geir Jenssen aka Biosphere maintains his fascination with natural landscapes in The Petrified Forest, in a sort of impressionistic illustration of Archie Mayo’s 1936 film of the same name. After imaginary trips taking us to Trømso, the Wolski forest on Poland, and more esoteric corners of his mind, this time his music inhabits a noirish world on the edge of the desert, populated by nervous and disillusioned characters who crop up in snatches of sampled dialogue across s…
