Quiet Days in Cliché
Uncorking the well of wit, whimsy and cool, refined fury that’s fueled his path around this world, Mayo Thompson pours out a new round: a first ever album of solo guitar music, not to mention a first solo album in almost forever, Quiet Days in Cliché.
With The Red Krayola, Mayo made three albums of pop music in the late 1960s, taking the idea of rock ‘n roll songs farther into the hoped-for realms of possibility than 98% of their psychedelic brethren before or since. Following the demise of the …

Offshore
Offshore is the first solo guitar album from Half Moon Bay local Alex Pasternak, an improvisatory record built almost entirely around a single instrument and a single practice: Restraint. Recorded close to home, it carries the sound of the Pacific and the voices of his two young daughters as they stroll the shoreline, from serene minus tides to stormy shore break. "Offshore, in surfing, is used to describe the strong winds that blow from the shore to the sea, creating space inside the curl - but…

Takeshi Nishimoto and Hiroshi Watanabe have individually spent more than twenty years exploring the emotional reach of instrumental music - one through guitar, s…
Furia
Following her foundational role in the early years of The Fall, and then the searing post punk of The Blue Orchids, as well as several tours serving as a backing group for Velvet Underground chanteuse Nico, Una Baines found herself starting 1985 without a band. Drafting together members of the all-female Beyond The Glass, and compatriots associated with her past projects, she entered the studio with a clutch of songs and a willingness to experiment. Separating the sides into “waxing”, for the mo…

Transfiguration
1967.

They had already played Newport together.

It sits between two records the brothers made the same year: Re-Union in B…
