Reissues

Beat Records returns with a new CD edition of Ennio Morricone's score for Il diavolo nel cervello, the 1972 psychological thriller directed by Sergio Sollima. Long absent from Italian shelves, this is a rare excursion into giallo territory for a director better known for westerns and crime pictures, and it drew from Morricone one of his most fully realised scores for the genre - a lyrical main theme carried by the voice of Edda Dell'Orso, set against dissonant string writing and passages of real…

*100 copies limited edition* Sculptural, dreamlike and intimately detailed, Precious Moments is the fourth album by singer and composer Oliver Mann - this time in collaboration with acclaimed Bologna electro-acoustic composer and guitarist Stefano Pilia. A tender remembrance across nine short tracks exploring the affinity and thrills of friendship in a time when we all have internalised distance, the album features guests Mick Turner (Dirty Three / Mess Esque / Cat Power) and a scene stealing ca…

On 1001 Est Crémazie, the self‑titled orchestra of middle‑schoolers and Cégep staff capture the exuberant birth of modern Quebec: raw jazz‑rock, DIY tape lore and Quiet Revolution aftershocks pressed into one unlikely, fiercely alive school‑band artefact.

Quartet Records presents its fifth newly recorded release of a classic film score, and its third devoted to the music of John Barry, following Séance on a Wet Afternoon and the three television films starring Katharine Hepburn. The unforgettable music of this five-time Oscar-winning composer continues to be celebrated around the world, and the impact of his innovative scores for dozens of films from the 1960s through the ’90s still reverberates today. The Ipcress File, directed by Sidney J. Furi…

Big Tip! *Limited edition of 200 copies* Geometrik Records is delighted to once again play a part in the exclusive recovery of Marcelo Expósito's previously unpublished work, which had been lost since its original creation in the 1980s. Marcelo Expósito is one of Spain's most internationally renowned contemporary artists, whose work is regularly exhibited across Europe and Latin America. But he began his career at a very young age during the era of sound experimentation that flourished in the wa…

On Automaginary + Totality, Natural Information Society & Bitchin Bajas meet across two studio sessions separated by a decade, weaving rhythm, gravity and invisible force into organic convergences now united on CD for the first time - separate arcs made whole.

Released in 2021, Country Tropics was the first offering from Old Saw. At the time, no one was really certain who was behind the lush and textured arrangements of a soon to be beloved ensemble of New England based musicians.  5 years and 4 albums later, the group announced that their fall 2025 double album, The Wringing Cloth, would be their last.  An outpouring of affection and adoration for what the group had accomplished followed, with many noting just how unique a space Old Saw occupied with…

First time reissue of dreamy new age electronic ambient music recorded by the musician/magician Shiho in Japan between the years 1989-1990. This can be seen as a follow up to her legendary album "The Body is a Message of the Universe". The hauntingly beautiful and captivating "Alpha Wave Music” features exotic, floating and shimmering, synthesizer textures with shifting tone colors bringing the listener to a very special magic place. Here Shiho experiment with binaural and alpha wave 1/f fluctua…

Morton Feldman’s New Directions in Music 2 is one of the true cornerstones of modern classical music. Originally released in 1959, the album captures Feldman at the very beginning of his radical journey into sound, space and silence, developing the sparse, floating language that would go on to influence generations of experimental composers and ambient musicians alike. With cover artwork by abstract painter Philip Guston and clear parallels to the chance-based ideas of John Cage, the record perf…

Tippin' On Through, by tenor saxophonist Curtis Amy, stands as a defining statement from one of West Coast jazz’s most eloquent voices. Recorded and released in 1965, the album pairs Amy’s warm, hard‑bop tenor with soulful grooves, crisp arrangements, and sympathetic ensemble interplay, creating a record that is both accessible and richly musical. Tippin' On Through showcases Amy’s robust tone, lyrical phrasing, and rhythmic agility. Across the program he moves effortlessly between blues‑inflect…

Components documents vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson’s early emergence as a vital voice in modern jazz. Recorded and issued in 1965, the album presents Hutcherson’s distinctive mallet work and original compositions that bridge post‑bop lyricism and mid‑60s harmonic exploration. Components balances melodic clarity with adventurous harmony, moving between contemplative ballads, driving post‑bop pieces, and modal excursions that highlight the vibraphone’s textural range within a small‑combo setting. …

A collaborative album by two Japanese electronic and experimental legends! Yasushi Yamashita, 1/2 of the renowned duo Inoyama Land, pioneers of ambient and Kankyō Ongaku, and Asuna, author of the renowned concert/performance "100 Keyboards" numerous solo albums, and a critically acclaimed LP recorded with Jan Jelinek. Two generations of Japanese electronic pioneers on one album.

*2026 stock* The title says it: a deliberate, joyful return to bebop fundamentals from the Kenji Mori quintet, recorded at a moment when the language could already feel like a stylistic choice rather than a default. By 1982 the Japanese jazz scene had moved through its modal, free and fusion phases, and Be-Bop '82 is in part a record about choosing to stand somewhere: a claim that the bebop vocabulary still had real things to say. Mori plays with the kind of warmth and confidence that comes from…

*2026 stock* Toshiyuki Miyama led The New Herd for decades, one of the most important and most adventurous Japanese big bands of the post-war period, and the working ensemble through which a remarkable number of Japanese composers and arrangers found a sympathetic home. Gallery shows the band in mature form, working through a programme that uses the full resources of the ensemble: brass-heavy passages giving way to chamber-sized features, dense ensemble writing setting up patches of open improvi…

*2026 stock* Another date from Toshiyuki Miyama's New Herd for Three Blind Mice, and a strong candidate for the band's most accessible single record. Sunday Thing leans into the warmer, more groove-conscious end of the New Herd's repertoire: there are still the harmonic ambitions and ensemble dynamics that made the band more than a swing-era throwback, but the rhythmic feel runs closer to the soul-jazz and groove-oriented big-band writing that was current at the time. Long-form arrangements give…

*2026 stock* The third album from singer Mari Nakamoto for Three Blind Mice, and the one that pushes hardest at the conventions of mainstream vocal jazz. The line-up is the giveaway: alongside Nakamoto's voice, the record places bassist Isao Suzuki at the centre of the rhythm section and brings in Kazumi Watanabe on guitar, the same Watanabe who would shortly become one of the major figures in Japanese fusion and progressive jazz. The result is a vocal record where the accompaniment is unmistaka…

*2026 stock* A live document from the legendary “5 Days In Jazz” festival in Tokyo in March 1974, and one of the most ambitious multi-band albums in the Three Blind Mice catalogue. The record gathers some of the most important working units of the moment: bassist Isao Suzuki and guitarist Sunao Wada sharing the front of the stage, the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio holding things together from the rhythm section, and the George Otsuka Quintet stepping in with the alto-led horn front-line that defined th…

*2026 stock* Nobuo Hara led Sharps & Flats for an astonishing run, well over half a century, and the band became one of the institutions of Japanese jazz, in roughly the same way the Clarke-Boland Big Band held its place in Europe. Active Volcano catches the ensemble in particularly muscular form: arrangements that draw on the funkier, groove-conscious end of seventies big-band writing, brass passages that hit hard without losing definition, and a sense of swing that belongs less to the swing er…

*2026 stock* The Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio in concert at Montreux, and one of the relatively few records that documents the working group on an international stage. By the time of this recording the trio had already been together for years, and the band's mutual understanding shows in the way pieces unfold: long heads, patient solos, and a rhythm section that responds to the leader's harmonic choices before he has finished making them. Yamamoto plays with the bluesy, slightly behind-the-beat phrasi…

*2026 stock* A mid-seventies entry from the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio, and one of the records where the leader's bluesy, groove-conscious side comes most clearly to the front. The title track is the Ramsey Lewis standard, and the choice tells you most of what you need to know about the date: Yamamoto's trio was a working unit happy to engage with the soul-jazz and groove-jazz vocabularies that had been moving the music since the late sixties. The rest of the programme balances that with the lyrical…

On Poco zucchero, Faust'O sharpens Italian songwriting with new‑wave edge, threading synth‑driven melancholy through eight compact tales of absence and longing, anchored by "Oh! Oh! Oh!", the 1979 Festivalbar hit that made his name stick.

On Oakland Coliseum, May 9, 1977, Pink Floyd deliver a legendary "In The Flesh" tour performance, working through Animals and Wish You Were Here before closing with "Careful With That Axe, Eugene" - the last time the band would ever play the explosive 1968 rarity together.

On Tearing Down The Coliseum Wall, Pink Floyd deliver The Wall in full at Nassau Coliseum on February 28, 1980, captured in a limited bootleg edition that documents one of rock's most elaborate spectacles during the album's brief, expensive first tour across three vinyl discs and Gerald Scarfe artwork.

On United For Live 8, Pink Floyd's classic lineup - David Gilmour, Roger Waters, Richard Wright and Nick Mason - reunite at Hyde Park on July 2, 2005 for a charged, twenty‑minute set that proves both redemptive and bittersweet, the first time in twenty‑four years and the last ever together.

On Rest In Peace: The Final Concert, Bauhaus capture their 1983 Hammersmith Palais swan song across two discs, delivering gothic rock's founding quartet - Peter Murphy, Daniel Ash, David J and Kevin Haskins - at their theatrical, darkly charged peak before dissolving into legend.

On Across The Borderline, The Byrds blaze through a November 1971 Vancouver concert at PNE Gardens, captured in a limited bootleg edition that documents the band's late‑era country‑rock sound as it stretched between cosmic Americana and road‑worn grit.

2026 Record Store Day Reprise of the 1968 album 'live' by the 13th Floor Elevators. Panned at the time for being billed as "live" when in fact it was a compilation of previosuly recorded studio masters, outtakes and alternate mixes. The "very loud" crowd noise was overdubbed and was actually taken from a boxing match and wholly inappropriate for the purpose. Now, almost 60 years on, the album masters are available, in their original sequence, without the crowd noise, to be enjoyed in their full …

Canadian-born Alexander 'Skip' Spence was the co-founder of Moby Grape, and played guitar with them until 1969. In the same year he released his only solo album: Oar. The album was recorded after Spence had spent six months in a mental institution following a delusion-driven attempt to attack his Moby Grape band mates with a fire axe, after having ingested LSD. As the urban myth goes, on the day of his release he drove a motorcycle - dressed in only his pyjamas - directly to Nashville to record …

Duo Concert Frankfurt 1986 was recorded live in Germany on February 15th. The album captures tenor icon Pharoah Sanders and celebrated pianist John Hicks in a moment of profound musical harmony. Sanders, known for his evolution from fierce free-jazz to deeply lyrical spiritualist, plays here with warmth, focus and emotional clarity. Hicks meets him with luminous touch, rich voicings and an intuitive sense of space that elevates every phrase. Together they deliver a beautifully balanced set of Co…

Originally released by Time Capsule in 2021 and long out of print, Stories From Another Time 1982-1988 returns in an upgraded edition following years of demand and rising collector prices on the secondhand market. Widely regarded as a modern cult classic, Mário Rui Silva's visionary recordings blend acoustic folk, cinematic soul, spiritual jazz and saudade-filled Lusophone rhythm into a deeply timeless and universal work that transcends genre and geography. This new edition features half-speed m…

Australian progressive fusion-jazz-symphonic rock act Pantha burst from the mid‑1970s with a uniquely spirited record, Doway Do Doway Do !?!!, a thrilling hybrid of rock, jazz, Latin American rhythms, West Indian grooves and occasional Zappa‑styled eccentricity. Originally released in 1975, the album showcases the group’s deft ability to marry virtuosic musicianship with irresistible danceable energy. Doway Do Doway Do !?!! draws on the Santana hallmark of driving rock over Latin beats but expan…

Don Shinn’s Departures, first issued in 1969 and recorded at Lansdowne Studios in London just months after his acclaimed debut, returns in a newly remastered edition that highlights the record’s adventurous spirit and Shinn’s singular command of the Hammond organ. Where his debut established him as a rising force, Departures reveals a more overtly jazzy, exploratory side — muscular, unpredictable and deeply musical — that helped influence a generation of keyboardists, including the young Keith E…

Ocarinah re-release of Premiere Vision De L’Étrange is a bold return to the space‑progressive roots of late‑1970s French prog. Across five expansive tracks the band delivers a masterclass in dynamic contrast, thematic development and instrumental daring — a record that feels both timeless and freshly strange. Recorded with a raw, immediate production that recalls vintage live tape, Premiere Vision De L’Étrange blends the loose, exploratory spirit of Canterbury progressive rock with the atmospher…

Made in 1969 but never published, Terminal Boundaries is an artist book by Lawrence Weiner, a sculptor whose medium was language. The manuscript for the publication, which was recently brought to light, contains two related bodies of work represented as typewritten statements on paper that Weiner pasted to the pages of a small composition notebook. The book’s absence from Weiner’s oeuvre plagued him as it marked a terminus of his relationship to the physical construction of his artworks, and ill…

*2026 stock* This is a reissue of the seminal 1983 ambient album "Boglands", created by the composer Tony Quinn, who was an integral part of the Kilkenny Electroacoustic Research Laboratory throughout its later period. Miúin are delighted to finally reissue this album in its entirety. Remastered from the archived original tapes and approved of by the composer himself. At long last we can listen to this music in the way that it was always meant to be heard - with the bass frequencies significantl…

*2026 stock* Drummer George Otsuka was a fixture of the Tokyo jazz club scene from the sixties onwards, leading a series of working bands that earned a reputation for tight ensemble playing and consistently high temperature. 'Go On', one of the early releases on Three Blind Mice, captures the quintet at the moment when its hard bop foundation was beginning to stretch into something more searching: there's still plenty of swing, but the modal frames and freer improvising of the surrounding scene …

*2026 stock* One of the more obscure entries in the early Three Blind Mice catalogue, and a record that points to the label's willingness, from very near its beginning, to host visiting players alongside the domestic scene. The American saxophonist Allan Praskin worked at the international margins of the jazz circuit, and Encounter finds him in a quartet setting that draws on the rhythmic discipline of the Japanese players around him. The writing sits firmly in the post-bop tradition: modal fram…

*2026 stock* Guitarist Sunao Wada spent the seventies as one of the most consistently working figures in Japanese jazz, a player whose tone owed something to Wes Montgomery and Kenny Burrell but whose phrasing carried a particular Japanese weight, more thoughtful than driving. Coco's Blues, an early release on Three Blind Mice, alternates quartet and sextet formations across the programme, and the shift in scale gives the record a real architectural interest. The smaller settings let Wada's line…

*2026 stock* Saxophonist Kenji Mori belongs to the second generation of TBM regulars, a player whose work for the label spans several years and several formats, but whose quartet records have a particularly distilled quality. Firebird fits cleanly into the modal and post-bop tradition that defined the heart of the Three Blind Mice catalogue: heads with real melodic substance, harmonic openness that gives the soloists space without leaving them stranded, and a rhythm section that knows how to kee…

*2026 stock* The pianist Fumio Karashima is best known internationally for his long association with Elvin Jones, having held the piano chair in Jones's working bands for years, a credit that already tells you most of what you need to know about his playing. Gathering, his trio date for Three Blind Mice, is the work of a player who has spent serious time on the bandstand with one of the most demanding drummers in jazz history, and the record's qualities reflect it: a strong rhythmic centre, a le…
