In The Wake Of Poseidon
King Crimson opened 1970 scarcely in existence as a band, having lost two key members (Ian McDonald and Michael Giles), with a third (Greg Lake) about to leave. Their second album -- largely composed of Robert Fripp's songwriting and material salvaged from their stage repertory ("Pictures of a City" and "The Devil's Triangle") -- is actually better produced and better sounding than their first. Surprisingly, Fripp's guitar is not the dominant instrument here: The Mellotron, taken over by Fripp a…
Overegginnit
The black Albumen began as an experiment by Glyn BiggaBush (Rockers Hi Fi, Dandelion Set, Magic Drum Orchestra, Lightning Head) to see if he could channel the music of Egg - specifically their 1969 debut album but with elements of follow-ups The Polite Force & Civil Surface - into his own productions. The black Albumen's musical palette was restricted to the same instrumentation as used by Egg - organ, piano, tone generator / test oscillator, bass guitar & drums. Time signatures were generally i…
Praise Poems Volume 11 (A Journey Into Raw, Energetic Power Pop From The 1980s)
Every compilation series has an end. After 10 outstanding issues, we are saying goodbye to the Praise Poems series, which is highly appreciated by collectors and music lovers, with this 11th installment. With this final installment, we are deliberately venturing into a genre that we have only included in exceptional cases to date: Power Pop of the late 1970s and early 80s. We start with "Real Proof", an unreleased song by the band The Nails, originally from Boulder, Colorado, who were even signe…
An Orphan Form
*300 copies limited edition* “With An Orphan Form, Ivan The Tolerable returns with a beautifully strange and immersive suite that feels both otherworldly and rooted in something organic. Drawing on kosmische drift, loose-limbed jazz, and warped psychedelic textures, the record moves like a half-remembered dream. Field recordings and nature sounds weave in and out, grounding the swirling synths and off-kilter rhythms in real earth and air. It's a record that doesn’t follow a straight line, but in…

This special red vinyl edition celebrates a band that, despite their brief existence, left an indelible mark on the progressive music landscape. Formed around the core partnership of Alan Gowen and drummer Mike Travis, Gilgamesh's journey began as an ambitious band project that wou…
Açid Blüüs Räägs Vol.2 Remixed
Following quick fire sell outs of recent 45s from The Hologram People and Delta, next up on North London’s prolific Feral Child label is an absolute showstopper; the mighty Jonny Halifax Invocation return with a new set of remixes from their phenomenal second full length “Açid Blüüs Räägs: Vol. 2” released last year to rave reviews, via their own Greasy Noise imprint and God Unknown.
The East London based collective have been active since 2021, releasing a stash of amazing lathe cut releases, a…
In The Land Of Grey And Pink
*2025 repress* The third album by Canterbury's own Caravan, originally released in 1971, reissued with two full sides of bonus outtakes taken from the album's original recording sessions at A.I.R. and Decca studios in London in 1970-71. This was the last album to feature the original Caravan line-up, before David Sinclair left to form Matching Mole with Robert Wyatt (Soft Machine) later that year.
"In the Land of Grey and Pink is considered by many to be a pinnacle release from Caravan. The albu…

Cluster can be counted among the most important international protagonists of the electronic avant-garde. Some credit them with having invented ambient music, others as pioneers of synthesizer pop, whilst to some they are firmly embedded in the krautrock universe. There is some truth in all of these notions. Cluster (or Kluster as they were in the beginning) were founded in 1970 in Berlin by Conrad Schnitzler, Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius. A change in direction and musical differenc…
Earthrise
*200 copies limited edition* In continuation of PQR’s incessant quest for those one-off gems of U.S. Prog, we bring you the first ever reissue of a classic among prog collectors and enthusiasts at large, the sole album by Eearthrise. In fact, this edition is 2 albums in 1, as, over and above the 4 main tracks, it features 5 previously unreleased ones, spanning key member Bill Drobile’s different compositional phases, from fuzzed out psychedelia to prog. Emerging from New Jersey’s fertile musical…
Belsebub Är Lös...
*200 copies limited edition* After the sold-out reissues of San Michael’s and Gandalf’s albums, we plunge once more into Sweden’s labyrinthine musical vaults, to bring you Midsommar’s highly collectable debut, Belsebub är lös. Originally released in 1970, this is a psychedelic hard-rocker, occasionally amalgamating with proto-prog and folk. The self-titled opening track sets the stage for what is bound to follow. As we journey through the album’s stomping textures, we discover tunes such as Dröm…
The Operetta
"The psychedelic find of the decade-their long-lost final magnum opus. Rumored to exist for years-often put down as just rumor though. Here it is, unearthed from tapes thought lost forever but now found after nearly 30 years. The first thing to be released from Ya Ho Wha 13 since 1975. In the spring of 1975 the Family was homeless and was travelling on the West Coast after having been driven out of Hawaii by local laws (they would return later that year for what would be the final time wi…
Principe di un Giorno
Tranquillity and lyricism. Italian Celeste expresses a fantastic sound world with well-chosen arrangements. The carefully woven compositions, reminiscent of an exquisite textile, symbolise the “quiet” sound of Italy. This timeless masterpiece has been remastered in 2024 for the first time in 14 years and is now available in an encore pressing! Paper jacket, SHM-CD, 1 bonus track.
Reflections on the Future
The only album by hard rock band Twenty Sixty Six and Zen, released in Germany in 1972 as a mixed Anglo-German band. The original is an extremely rare and classic record, which has been sold at a high price amongst enthusiasts. The wild vocals and keyboards form a heavy and thick dynamism, and there are many progressive elements such as the introduction of the mellotron. This long-awaited encore pressing of this long-unavailable masterpiece is now available in paper jacket and SHM-CD / remastere…
Death May Be Your Santa Claus
If there were a hall of fame for underground weirdo freak bands, Second Hand would be among the first nominees. Their second album, released on April 1st 1971 through Vic Keary's Mushroom Records, is no joke - it's one of the most unhinged, inventive and genuinely strange records to emerge from the British progressive underground.
Second Hand began life as The Next Collection in South London in 1965, with teenage school-friends Ken Elliott (keyboards, mellotron, harmonica) and Kieran O'Connor (d…
