Another stab at having a close-ish look at some of the record-show purchases, plus the usual zaniness! Lots got left unplayed - oh, well, next show!
Starting the Nightwatch in fine form with a selection from a collection of vol. 4, 5 & 6 of the Grails' 'Black tar Prophecies' EP's |
Self-Hypnosis Grails - Black Tar Prophecies vol. 4, 5 & 6 |
Chariots Grails - Black Tar Prophecies vol. 4, 5 & 6 |
Pale Purple Blues Grails - Black Tar Prophecies vol. 4, 5 & 6 |
Corridors of Power Vol III Grails - Black Tar Prophecies vol. 4, 5 & 6 |
Continuing with a couple of 'various' sets of music, starting with a track from The Band Whose Name is a Symbol - remember, they're playing with former lead vocalist from legendary German rock band CAN at the House of Targ May 15th! |
Sask. TBWNIAS - Scrappy Little Jaw |
Patron Bentley GUH - We Are Sunburning |
Magic Train Grobschnitt - Ballermann |
My Time Mock Duck - Test Record |
The more I play it, the more I recognize Christmas' 'Heritage' LP as one of the best LPs in the hard/prog/acid rock genres Canada has ever produced... |
April Mountain Christmas - Heritage |
Momo Tombo Malo - Dos |
Lady Xoc and Shield Jaguar Mahogany Frog - Do5 |
Now into a few tracks from 70's Quebec prog/fusion band Sloche's 2nd (and last) LP 'Stadacone' - I was lucky enough to score a copy at the record con - now to look for their 1st LP 'J'un oeil' |
Stadacone Sloche - Stadacone |
Le Cosmophile Sloche - Stadacone |
Another set of Record-show finds: 2 tracks from UK band Jade Warrior and 1972's 'Last Autumn's Dream' LP, and a track from Italian band Il Baricentro, and their 1976 debut LP 'Sconcerto'. |
Snake Jade Warrior - Last Autumn's Dream |
Dark River Jade Warrior - Last Autumn's Dream |
Sconcerto Il Baricentro - Sconcerto |
Esnuria Gong - Expresso |
As we roll around in the fusion playground, we finish the set with a track from (Pierre Moerlen's) Gong, and an LP known as Expresso - the American title for the LP released as 'Gazeuse!' in Europe. Next set, 2 tracks of incendiary fusion from a never-before-released live recording from Ian Carr's Nucleus, recorded in 1970-'71! |
Song For the Bearded Lady Ian Carr's Nucleus - Live In Europe 1970-1971 |
Tangent Ian Carr's Nucleus - Live In Europe 1970-1971 |
Now, it's time to finish the Nightwatch with a feature on an entire LP - the rare 2nd LP from Italian prog/fusionband Perigeo, 'Abbiamo tutti un blues da piangere' (1973)! It is quite an amazing LP - Mahavishnu, yes, weather Report, yes, but altogether raw-er, with a compositional flair - worth playing the entire LP. |
Non c'è tempo da perdere Perigeo - Abbiamo tutti un blues da piangere |
Deja Vu Perigeo - Abbiamo tutti un blues da piangere |
Rituale Perigeo - Abbiamo tutti un blues da piangere |
Abbiamo tutti un blues da piangere Perigeo - Abbiamo tutti un blues da piangere |
Country Perigeo - Abbiamo tutti un blues da piangere |

Great show
