Mr. Pine - Rewilding (2008)

Kevin Scott of the Canadian acid-folk band, Mr. Pine, sent their recent album in Lost In Tyme, as a free download.

It's like we have been transfered to England, back in 1971 and amongst the great folk groups of the era, like Mellow Candle, Amazing Blondel, or Steeley Span, we have discovered a lost gem, full of beautiful melodies, in the old traditional style, yet performed with the psychedelic spirit we all love.

Mr. Pine is a band of accomplished musicians, with deep knowledge in the folk scene of the 70s, but this is not sufficient to make a good record. What makes "Rewilding" a recommended album is their high-level songwriting and their honest approach. In fact, I'm sure that most of these songs would fit perfectly in a mixed CD (or tape) with selections of Brit acid-folk of the 70s.

Mr. Pine are Matt McLennan/Kevin Scott/Leslie Oldham/Richard Caners/Jason Peters/Ken ... Read more »

Released in 2009, Cosmic Pill is the first album from the guitar-led musical collective Experimental Souvenir. It includes a vast collection of punchy, spacey instrumental epics with a flair to jazzy-metallic experiments. The instrumentation is simultaneously complex, spacious and exhuberant.

The album opens with the superb and gorgeously addictive Cosmic Pill. A truly propulsive heavy krautrockin' hymn dominated by energetic guitar riffs, thundering drum patterns and glacial synthesised effects. The Creation is a wild, free and... Read more »

The Left Handed Marriage - On The Right Side Of The Left Handed Marriage (1967)

In the summer of 1965, in a corner of Hampton Grammar School, Bill Richards (who had been a fleeting, early member of 1984 before it acquired its futuristic name), and his colleagues Jenny Hill (nee Rusbridge), Henry Deval and Terry Goulds, formed a folk-rock band called the Left-Handed Marriage, named after an archaic form of marrying beneath oneself. By January 1967, the quartet had progressed to the point where they had issued their own privately-pressed album, "On The Right Side Of The Left Handed Marriage", which ran to just fifty copies (and, incidentally, has since acquired cult status among collectors, with a £600 price tag t...
