"I've found my musical Holy Grail. I may never need to hear anything but Devils Wielding Scimitars. The divine intervention kicks in via synchronized drums and guitar before the velvety, elastic, breathy cooings of Suzy Callahan appear to tell her revamped tale...The musicianship is top-notch, but we are dealing with a voice that has the power to haunt. To heal. The power to shoot between your brain and your heart straight towards the heavens." - The Seattle Rocket
The main selling point of the album is Suzy Callahan's ethereal, innocence-with-an-edge voice. "All Music Guide"
Suzy Callahan's voice is a wondrous thing, somehow managing to sound wholesome and deranged at the same time." - Rhythm, UK" .. Suzy Callahan is a joy. In

Shin Jung Hyun & the Donkeys - feat. Lee Jung Hwa (Korea 1969)
Donkeys
Members are : Bass: Lee Tae Hyun Lead Guitar: Shin Jung-Hyun Rhythm
guitar: On Duk Gi Keyboard: Kim Min Rang drums: Kim Ho Sik with female singer Lee Jung-Hwa
Great Korean psyche jam! Korean
guitar god and his band the Donkeys. Superb, little-known psychedelic
music. Superb exploratory tracks packed
with organ and fuzz.
This group leader is Shin Jung Hyun who was a Korean rock godfather!! He played guitar at American 8 army show for long time before he organized this group. And he was influenced by Psychedelic music of Jimi hendrix, Jim Morrison etc.
Here Shin Jung Hyun & Donkeys were backing band for a basically mainstream

No
introduction needed. Nick Drake is, IMO, the greatest and most soulful
of all folk guitarists/songwriters. What's more, the words of his songs
are not merely lyrics: they are POETRY, great, introspective, fragile
poetry. His music has been my company for more than ten years; yet,
every time I listen to his songs, I feel like it's the first time.
There isn't even a single song by Nick Drake that I don't like. All of
them are perfect...
I bought this album after I had
collected all his official releases. It contains songs which he
recorded at home (hence the bad so

Scott Warren Miller, as he appears in Painted Windows, is an outstanding figure in San Francisco/Davis underground/obscure/alternative scene for almost 30 years. He started with Lobster Quadrille (there are no releases by them - but there are existing recordings) and Alternate Learning who released two recordings: ALRN (7"EP, 1979) and Painted Windows (LP, 1981). The line-up was Scott Miller, Joe Becker (later in Thin White Rope, Game Theory and Loud Family), Kern Scott Gallawa, Carolyn O'Rourke, Byl Miller and Eric Landers.Despite the continuus demand from the fans, Scott Miller refuses to let the Alternative Learning records re-released (Scott as most artists wants the audience to focus on his recent work), and, as these were pressed in 1000 copies, they're v

Tiny Lights was a music group formed by John Hamilton and Donna Croughn in 1985. Original members include Dave Dreiwitz, Jane Scarpantoni and Andy Demos. Based in Hoboken, New Jersey, the group released a total of seven albums, two of which were later released on Psychic TV's Temple Records. From 1988 to 1994 Tiny Lights toured the United States extensively. Other members include Stuart Hake (cello), John Mastro (drums), Catherine Bent (cello), Andy Burton (piano, organ), and Ron Howden (drums--formerly the drummer for Nectar).
The group's members employed a rich array of instrumentation, including

As Camera Obscura noted : "A sampler of the biggest hits off our first 10 releases, plus five previously unreleased tracks for the collectors out there...Sleeves are laser-printed on parchment-style paper folded with the disc
and probably in a poly bag with a handful in jewel cases. Art by
Timothy Renner of Mourning Cloak/Stone Breath and Terrastock I and II
poster and t-shirt fame." I must add that this came out in 1998, in 500 numbered copies and is now a collector's item. As for Camera Obscura, ten years later is the most established and active label in this genre. You can visit Camera Obscura's great site, listen more songs from their catalog and buy Serotonin Ronin II (while still in print!)
There's no need to tell you much about the music - what you get is some of the best modern-day psychedelia that will make you say "How wrong I was to believe that they don't make it like they used to"

Early Swell Maps blues sessions? The Fall playing Kinks' songs but they don't
know the lyrics? There's no other album in the entire New
Zealand music so chaotic, so
brilliantly cacophonous and so totally denying any label, music style or genre, like this double album from the Axemen, released by Flying
Nun, in this great label's absolute peak, in
1986.
Flying Nun was so great because, for several
years, would release music
by any, and I mean any, band that Roger Shepherd, Chris Knox and Doug
Hood thought that had something interesting, no matter what musical
style it had. This concept produced some
of the best music of the 80s, not only because the three mentioned
above have an excellent taste, but also beca

Back in the 80s there was a scene
that blossomed in the Arizona desert. Green
on Red were one the first
and more well-known bands, but they soon left for L.A. Giant Sand,
Naked Prey, Rainer, Woodcocks, Sidewinders, Al Perry & the
Cattle, Black Sun Ensemble, River Roses and many more were
labeled by
the music press as the "desert sound", although there are only three
records that you can actually smell the desert: Meat Puppets'
"Up On
The Sun", Black Sun Ensemble's "Lambent Flame" and
Al Perry and the
Cattle's "Cattle Crossing" - and all three of them have
nothing in
common musically.
The Arizona bands
(mainly from
Tucson) were playing good, old rock'n'roll music, with loud guitars,
high tension and lots of energy. By this I don't mean that the Arizona
scene was just generic rock

This is the record which introduced the Japanese avant-garde scene to the Western audiences. Fred Frith (the creator and producer of this compilation) was among the very first musicians who visited Japan and had many collaborations with the local artists that today are well-known worldwide: Keiji Haino, Tenko, Chie Mukai, Haco, After Dinner, Mizutama Shobodan. Fred Frith did almost everything in this record: he discovered the music, he gathered the artists, he recorded them, he mixed the recordings and did the production, he took the cover photo, he even made one of the tracks from the remains of the recordings! (the opening "Fake").
As Frith said in the liner notes "A lot of new rock exists in Japan. It may be slavishly i

....an exorcism of the Garage demons; "Havin' a Grunge-Fest with the Not Quite"
(the word "grunge" hadn't yet become the property of the city of
Seattle), a full LP's worth of straight-up garage rock. It's a
blistered classic, and a damned shame that it never got released. (from Dark Lord Rob's page for Not Quite)
A loud, fuzzed-out album, better played and recorded than their first (posted here), which was superb anyway... As you can read in the lengthy interview from Freakbeat #7 (1990) which can be found here, this was recorded for Resonanse label, but never came out, because it was too "garagey". Well, it's never too late to enjoy it! It contains Not Quite's originals, as well great covers of "Astronomy Domine", Clear Light's "She's Ready to be Free", and "Nobody Loves the Hulk" !
For more on Not Quite and the recent adventures of Dark Lord Rob (in

I was happy to see the Colwell-Winfield Blues Band included on a Bosstown Sound sampler because I thought they were forgotten and maybe would not be invited to the party because they were not playing rock. They were definately part of the scene. A lot of us rockers were finding the blues during this period. One of my most thrilling musical experiences was seeing BB King at the Boston Tea Party. I vaguely knew Clapton drew from him. BB's quitar playing opened up a whole new world to me and that night the audience reacted to every bend and trill. I always thoug
