Evening Star
**200g super-heavyweight vinyl and presented in a re-print of the original sleeve** In 1975 with King Crimson on hiatus (as it would remain until 1980), Robert Fripp's appearances on album or on stage were rare. When he did appear, it was with Brian Eno. Circumstances following an accident in January 1975 led to Eno formulating the idea of ambient music as detailed in the notes to Discreet Music - released in December 1975. The title track of Discreet Music was initially conceived as a backing l…
I'm Gonna Take You Home
The story of Father Yod, Yahowa 13 and the Source Family could literally fill books, but rest assured, they truly were the "apex of high" in terms of psychedelic music. A tale that transcends conventional music history, this legendary collective represents one of the most radical experiments in communal living and cosmic sound ever documented. The basics paint an extraordinary picture: Father Yod was a WWII flying ace and spiritual seeker who gathered his "children" around him in early 1970s Los…

Wigmore Hall 1968
*Edition of 300 copies. High thickness cardboard with opaque laminated cover. Comes with a printed insert.* John Tchicai (1936-2012) was one of the most visionary free jazz saxophonists of the 20th century - a rare artist whose voice stood apart even among giants.

Solaia (LP)
* 300 copies, comes with an extensive booklet * Limpe Fuchs’ first solo record came about by accident. Initially, Christoph Heemann invited the famous Anima duo to do a studio record in his home-town Aachen, but Paul Fuchs decided not to join in, so Limpe went on her own – and the recording sessions taking place in late 1986 and early 1987 turned out to become “via”, Limpe’s first solo-record and the (visible) starting point of her ongoing exceptional career as an internationally performing, ind…

Oizzo No
Temporary Super Offer! *2024 stock* When it comes to music, proximity can be a difficult thing. We want great artists to stand apart – above it all, yet we need them to be close enough, and often associated enough, for us to understand and discover their work. As is often the case, time heals distance and wounds, ushering artists who have long stood apart into the fold. If the resize market has fulfilled anything, it is this task. In this light, we encounter Roger Doyle, who’s masterful debut fr…

Double Happiness
Deux Filles was not, in fact, two girls despite what the group name and its elaborate hoax of a backstory suggest. No, they were not Gemini Forque and Claudine Coule, French women who met as teenagers under tragic circumstances and became fast friends, recording two albums together before disappearing into the ether. In reality, Deux Filles was Simon Fisher Turner and Colin Lloyd Tucker, a UK duo who first worked together in an early incarnation of The The.
Straddling the line between experimen…

Gungala La Pantera Nuda
Orange Vinyl. A hidden gem that earns its name. The original Cinevox pressing of this 1968 soundtrack existed in such a limited edition that few collectors ever held a copy - until now. Ruggero Deodato - then still years away from the notoriety of Cannibal Holocaust - directed Gungala La Pantera Nuda, the second entry in the Italian jungle-girl series starring Kirsten Svanholm, better known as Kitty Swan, a Danish model and acrobat briefly claimed by the Italian B-movie circuit of the late Sixti…
Amore Libero = Free Love
Pearly light blue vinyl edition. 30x30cm insert with extensive liner notes. An origin story, pressed in wax. Before Profondo Rosso. Before Suspiria. Before the name Goblin became synonymous with the sound of Italian horror cinema. There was this.
Amore Libero - Free Love is the first film score ever composed by Fabio Frizzi - written in 1974 when he was just twenty-three, for Pier Ludovico Pavoni's sun-drenched erotic drama of the same name, shot entirely on location in the Seychelles. The film …
