CD reissue of this album from 1974, Penetration: An Aquarian Symphony was intended to be Ya Ho Wha 13's masterwork, acting as a Merkabah of sorts to elevate its listeners to a heightened state of consciousness.

Captain Father Yod moans & groans, a perfect vocal chime over the top of the searing guitar rip of "Djin" and a massive cloak of tribal…

There is no higher echelon whispered in spare breath amidst commune-psych heads than the lofty peaks wherein these record reside... the pinnacle of “outsider” psychedelic music.  Father Yod and Yahowha 13 ride the eternal now and come up with a psychedelic classic.

Probably the first recording (1965!) of improvised jazz combined with electronic music, as well as playing inside the piano and other new music techniques. Bob James (piano); Barre Philips (bass); Robert Pozar (percussion). Also including Bob Ashley and Gordon Mumma (electronic tape collage). The recording is made of an assembly of estranging electronic sound effects, trite sports commentaries, and the music of a beautifully improvising jazz trio.

Gabor Szabo was something of an irresistible force. His upbringing in Communist Hungary was difficult but edifying. Music was his escape. He grew up to be a man of strength with a fatal weakness. In his early years, he voraciously consumed all the exciting and exotic jazz sounds coming from the Voice of America broadcasts. By the time he fled Budapest in 1956 as the Russian tanks hit the streets, he was well versed in all styles of guitar playing including classical.It was his jazz virtuosity, h…

**Remastered from the original master tapes, 180 gram reissue of the original vinyl release with gatefold cover** 1972s Psychonaut, by the Swiss-based Brainticket, is early seventies space rock at its finest. While the bands debut album, 1971s Cottonwoodhill, was a heavily acid-laden affair dominated by droning organ, disturbing vocals and a collection of cacophonic sound effects (causing it to carry a warning label and be banned in several countries) for their second effort, band-founder Joël V…

That work, never before issued, is included in this expanded remaster. Imposed Absence features 10 tracks recorded in the years between Impose…
