Mahogany Frog! Quebecois Prog! Live Amoeba Starfish!
Excited about a great many things this Nightwatch - the New Mahogany Frog LP, French-Canadian Prog, and Amoeba Starfish, Live!
| Had to start out with the product of one of the exciting events of the year: seeing Mahogany Frog at Barnstorm #13, and picking up the new LP - and here is Side #1... |
| Hounds Tooth Part 1 Mahogany Frog - Senna 
|
| Hounds Tooth Part 2 Mahogany Frog - Senna
|
| Expo '67 Mahogany Frog - Senna
|
| Flossing With Buddha Mahogany Frog - Senna
|
| How to follow something like that? The best way is to go to Brazil, and listen to some Akineton Retard, great RIO. After that, we get a bit jammy, and garage-psychedelic, moving towards recapping last week's feature on the new Swans LP, 'The Seer' - I didn't play the WHOLE thing, y'know..... |
| Primogenia Satiria Akineton Retard - Akineton Au Vivo |
| Elvezz Nero - Zedonk
|
| A Rose, a Pigeon and Seven Marble Sheep - The Gate Of A Heavenly Body |
| Not wanting to keave anything outin my displaying of the New Swans 3xLP, here's the tracks that didn't get played last week! |
| A Piece of the Sky Swans - The Seer
|
| The Seer Returns Swans - The Seer
|
| After Swans, some equally disturbing music from Jandek. Then rhythm is in order with two rhythm-oriented-tracks, one from percussionis Stomu Yamash'ta, the other from the Diga Rhythm Band, spearheaded by Mickey Hart. |
| Part Four Jandek - Manhattan Tuesday |
| 33 1/3 Stomu Yamash'ta - Raindog |
| Sweet Sixteen Diga Rhythm Band - Diga |
| Time to do a bit of a celebration - I managed to finally get my hands on Catherine Ribiero & Alpes's great 'Ame Debut' LP... which sparks off a look into some French (specifically Quebecios) progressive rock from the '70's (forgive the omission of Maneige - time was running short...)... |
| Alpes II Catherine Ribiero & Alpes - Ame Debut |
| Vert Harmonium - Le Cinq Saisons
|
| La Marche Des Hommes Morse Code - La Marche Des Hommes
|
| Isacaaron Sloche - Stadacone
|
| L'Oiseau Ruge Octobre - Live Chants Dans la Nuit
|
| After the late-70's Quebecios-prog-attack, some more recent 'Great News' - IMHO, the most challenging and innovative band to come out of the Maritime Provinces was known as The Exploding Meet, who have long languished in obscurity - but now, some kind soul has seen fit to release some of their music on vinyl, due out in December! In Celebration... |
| Real Darwin Exploding Meet - Circus of Disharmony
|
| Circus of Disharmony Exploding Meet - Circus of Disharmony
|
| Finishing up with a band I've played a lot of in the past few months... but the product keeps comin, this time in a live recording in Toronto from a couple of weeks ago. To quote: "A somewhat abridged version of ...Amoeba Starfish's set at THE AMBiENT PiNG on 9.11.12, improvising an interpretation of Golden Vibe, a fave piece from one of our inspirations, the masterful Steve Hillage! No back tracks were harmed or used." |
