Reissues
Happiness Is... Takin' Care Of Natural Business... Dig?
First released back in 1967 on the Touche label and impossible to find on vinyl ever since, Happiness Is Taking Care of Business, Dig was the sole album from the short-lived Al Tanner Quintet. Yet as this much-needed Jazzman reissue proves, it remains an inspired selection of spiritually enriching modal workouts that makes the most of its talented ensemble. While pianist and bandleader Al Tanner naturally makes his presence felt throughout, flautist/trumpeter George Alexander and tenor saxophoni…
I Corpi Presentano Tracce Di Violenza Carnale (Torso) - (Ost)
Tip! LP edition. The legendary Torso (1973), considered one of the precursors of the slasher genre, was directed by Sergio Martino following the success of All the Colors of the Dark (1972), featuring a stunning soundtrack composed by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis also known as Oliver Onions. In 1973 a 26 minutes-long stereo LP was prepared for RCS's promo SP series, but it got cancelled and the 45 rpm didn't see the light, neither. In 1999 BMG printed out a CD (OST 145) with the editing found in …
Brained By Falling Masonry/Cooloorta Moon
Tip! It could be argued that Brained and Cooloorta are the definitive Nurse With Wound E.Ps. Both classic and timeless fan favourites appear for the first time together on one single album. Both E.Ps marked a distinctive change in the NWW sound. Brained from 1984 showcases NWW at their mid 80’s finest. The relentless churning and uncompromising music of Brained by Falling Masonry is complimented by the eccentric mania of JG Thirlwell’s vocals. A Short Dip in Glory Hole takes us into the murky de…
Clifford Thornton Ketchaoua To Scorpio By Arthur Jones "Revisited"
Temporary Super Offer! Clifford Thornton and Arthur Jones have remained largely unknown ever since, except to collectors who treasure those early Parisian records and the world they evoke. We know little of what they did in later years, but if Hemingway was right, “If you are lucky enough to live in Paris [read “jazz”] as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you”. Thornton died in Switzerland in 1989, largely forgotten in his “home” country. Jones died in Ne…

You'll Never Come Back
Reissue of Harry Pussy's Ride A Dove, originally released on Siltbreeze in 1996. "By 1996, with one LP, a handful of 7"s, and a couple dozen gigs under their collective belts, Harry Pussy had thoroughly scrambled the mid-90s scuzz-rock ecosystem. Their acclaimed first LP, described by David Keenan as 'a black hole that devoured genre and flattened any attempt to classify it,' fused Japanese noise, '80s hardcore and post-Ayler jazz into a dense, white-hot ball of punk anger and insanity. The band…

Jashumon
* Gatefold with obi, great classic, originally released in 1972 * This mighty soundtrack for Shuji Terayama's nihilistic movie of the same name contains all the elements necessary to reach J.A. Caesar's intended pleasure-centers. Here, turmoil, mind-numbing repetition, abject misery and grisly partriarchs abound, and all orchestrated by Caesar's damaged proto-metal and choral-led psychedelic sound. Mind-infesting in the truest sense, this soundtrack played in the dark is as certified a Gateway t…
Shintokumaru
Fourth J.A. Seazer album, originally issued on Victor in 1978. Shuji Terayama and J.A.Seazer’s phantasmagoric folk-psych-symph-prog-rock opera. Historical Tenjo Sajiki performance from 1978. J.A. Caesar (also spelled J.A. Seazer and J.A. Ceaser) is the pseudonym for a Tokyo music composer who has been involved with creating music for various theater and film projects since the very early '70s. His music is a radical mixture of progressive rock, traditional Japanese theater music, and Magma-inspi…
Flowers of Evil, Short Circuits, 7 Trumps from the Tarot & Pinions (3CD Bundle)
3CD Bundle. Official editions, remastered CD reissues of the Ruth White’s seminal albums Short Circuits, 7 Trumps from the Tarot & Pinions, and Flowers of Evil. White’s world would grow bolder in 1964, when she built her very own studio. In the current age of the affordability of technology, the likelihood of building your own recording space borders on something for the everyman/woman/they/them. Needless to say, that was resolutely not the case in the early 60s’, especially for a female artist…
