Night Watch
Sunday May 27th, 2018 with Dav Fot
Chris Forsyth & Solar Motel! Mugstar!!

I had originally hoped to play a sampling of 2 new Chant Records albums (Midwood's 'Out of the Narrows' and Brett Higgins' Atlas Revolt), but my home computer picked the worst time to shuffle off this earthy coil, and I am bereft of both these releases until next Nightwatch. In the meantime, there's no lack of material!!
Starting out with 3 tracks from Chris Forsyth & Solar Motel Band's 2014 release, procured at the Community record show earlier this year!
The Ballad of Freer Hollow
Chris Forsyth & Solar Motel - Intensity Ghost
I Ain't Waiting
Chris Forsyth & Solar Motel - Intensity Ghost
Intenisty Ghost
Chris Forsyth & Solar Motel - Intensity Ghost
Continuing on with some early guitar-psychedelia from one of the earlier practitioners of the genre caught live with some great guitar histrionics from John Cipollina,
Calvary
Quicksilver Messenger Service - Happy Trails
April Mountain
Christmas - Heritage Canadian
A 2-track foray into the early-70's for ya... now back to things more recent... at least in this century!
Four-oh-One Theme
Nero - Soon Canadian
Unicycle Silencer
Three Mile Pilot - Nà Vuccà Dò Lupù
Acid Cloud Part 2
Moths and Locusts - Intro/Outro Canadian
One more track in the rock/psych/space vein (Spiral Realms featured 2 ex-Hawkwinders, Simon House and Del Dettmar, with Lend Del Rio from Pressurehed and Nik Turner's 90's touring band...)... then we make tracks towards jazz through a bit of weirdness from Fred Frith's early-80's solo LP.
Interstellar Overdrive
Spiral Realms - Solar Wind
Sadness, its Bones Bleached Behind Us
Fred Frith - Technology of Tears
Somebody Else's World
Sun Ra - My Brother the Wind
The foray into jazz was to be able to play a track from this live 2xLP, a much-heralded classic (for good reason) that I found for a decent price recently! After that we roll back into the rock vein with some fusion!
Wednesday Prayer Meeting
Charles Mingus - Antibes 60
Dance of the Maya
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Inner Mounting Flame
Rituale
Perigeo - Abbiamo tutti un blues da piangere
Finishing up this Nightwatch back in the present-day (more-or-less) with a feature on a great ambient/kraut/jam/neo-psych band from the UK, Mugstar, and a few tracks from their 2016 LP 'Magnetic Seasons'
Remember the Breathing
Mugstar - Magnetic Seasons
Regency Blues
Mugstar - Magnetic Seasons
Sky West and Crooked
Mugstar - Magnetic Seasons
Ascension Island
Mugstar - Magnetic Seasons
