2014 Release. Light In The Attic and the legendary folk/blues/roots label Vanguard Records are proud to begin a series of collaborations under the umbrella Vanguard Vault. The series will explore the vaults of Vanguard and see the reissuing of obscure nuggets, psychedelic weirdness and just some good old-fashioned seminal music.
Originally released in 1968 on Vanguard Records, Peter Walker’s album “Second Poem To Karmela” Or Gypsies Are Important was a ground breaking blend of folk, raga, ps…
Os Tremendões, Carlos, Erasmo..., Sonhos E Memória
Erasmo Carlos has no counterpart in the universe of Anglophone pop music that could begin to hint at his relevance, popularity and his complex relationship with the only Brazilian pop star more universally recognized than himself, Roberto Carlos. He may be a beloved pop star and household name in Brazil, but hardly because of the music found on the three albums reissued by Light In The Attic. While in retrospect they can be appreciated as some of his most creative, consistent and persona…
Requiem For An Almost Lady
Light in the Attic Records is proud to continue its Lee Hazlewood Archival Series with LHI Records final release. 1971’s Requiem for An Almost Lady is a personal statement and one of the heaviest break-up albums of all time. There are no lilting strings, sweeping choirs, or dancing trumpets. The arrangements are stripped down to the raw nerve; Lee’s emotions are the orchestra here. The listener eavesdrops on a sonic journal of heartbreak. After losing his lady, his record label, and h…
The Cowboy & The Lady
Light in the Attic Records is proud to continue it’s Lee Hazlewood archival series with an expanded reissue of Lee & Ann-Margret’s The Cowboy & The Lady. The album is Hazlewood’s truest country album and a perfect example of the genre hopping he was afforded at LHI with unlimited creative freedom and money to burn. Recorded over a weekend in Nashville with the help of Charlie McCoy and some Nashville session musicians. “That was 47 years and about 5000 sessions ago.” – Charlie McCoyWith improvis…
Forty

Every track Shel and Lee recorded for Forty are included here for the first time, including the outtake “For Once in My Life” and the previously unreleased backing track “Send Out Love.” In exchange for piles of money from major labels, Lee and LHI made promises to produce an amount of recorded material that wasn’t humanly possible for one man and a small label. The logistics didn…

Death Rides A Horse (Da Uomo a Uomo)2Lp
Dagored present a complete edition of Ennio Morricone's soundtrack for Death Rides A Horse (Da Uomo a Uomo). The soundtrack for this epic western movie featuring the great Lee Van Cleef bears the signature of Ennio Morricone: guitars, flute, piano, timpani, drums, and a Native American choir style make this motion picture a kind of original masterpiece in the maestro's oeuvre. I Cantori Moderni di Alessandroni performs here in its own unique way with Alessandro Alessandroni himself providing h…
Il Prefetto di Ferro
The maestro Morricone's Mediterranean sounds for the cult 1977 movie Il Prefetto di Ferro -- directed by Pasquale Squitieri and starring the Italian cinema legend Giuliano Gemma -- are sometimes warm, sometimes hard and sharp. With this score we can easily understand how much the Italian composer know about Sicilian folk music; the wonderful ballad "La Ballata del Prefetto Mori," with its sad lyrics written by Ignazio Buttitta, is magisterially interpreted by one of the most important voices …

Six Dimension / Coast To Coast
A record that definitely lives up to its title – an obscure Italian sound library session that blends instrumental touches that evoke an America at the start of the 70s with some of the hipper, deeper currents you'd expect from the team of Stefano Torossi and Giovanni Tomasso! There's plenty of expected sound library funk in the mix here in a way that makes for one of the most unique sound library sessions we've ever heard! Edition of 300 copies only.
Hot Dogs / Restless
Dope breaks and beats a go-go! Two classic cuts by I Gres, one of the coolest acts going on the Italian sound library scene of the 70s – a combo who were only a studio ensemble, but who could groove with the best funky jazz acts of the time! The band name combines letters of the members names: the "G" of organist Giorgio Carnini, "R" standing for maestro Roberto Pregadio, "E" was the I Gres drummer Enzo Restuccia and finally the "S" of the leading band man Silvano Chimenti. A masterpiece of live…
Travel Notes
Most of Bogusław Schaeffer’s electroacustic works emerged in the Polish Radio Experimental Studio. Among the works produced there in the years 1966-1978 were 15 autonomous compositions, 6 illustrations for the film and 11 works for the theatre and outdoor spectacle. The “Travel Notes” album assembles 5 out of 10 works created by Schaeffer outside Warsaw (in Berlin, Belgrae and Stockholm among others) in the exceptionally fertile eighth decade of the 20th century.
Brdo
Limited Edition of 100 copies.
It started again the CDR series, with a historical name of the ANTS catalog: Albert Mayr. This work dates back, like the previous "Suono Ambiente" of the same series, to 1978.A research project on a hypothesis of a "community rhythm" well described by Gillo Dorfles in his notes of the time:"The time-space musical analysis performed by Albert Mayr in February 1978 in the tiny village of Brdo, in Istria, is the result of long meditations and deep practical experiment…
Everywhere At The End Of Time Stages 1-3
Compiling the first 3 albums in the 'Everywhere At The End Of Time' series - two and a half hours long, each album reveals new points of progression, loss and disintegration, progressively falling further and further towards the abyss of complete memory loss and nothingness...Embarking on the Caretaker’s final journey with the familiar vernacular of abraded shellac 78s and their ghostly waltzes to emulate the entropic effect of a mind becoming detached from everyone else’s sense of realit…
L'Enfant Assassin des Mouches
CD version. Within the last ten years the resurgence of sixties Gallic Pop, once known as Ye-Ye music, has escalated beyond an inter-stellar dizzy height. What might have been a waning, embarrassing genre destined for a shelf life/death gathering dust amongst the Eurovisions of yesteryear, the ‘jerk-beat’ psychsploitation records of the latter day French-Disco had soon found new floor space in some of the most credible nightspots in London and Japan. Without a shadow of doubt, the flagship LP wi…
Suspiria - 40th anniversary box
** 300 copies only, sold out at source ** Goblin, Dario Argento, Suspiria. Never as in this case any possible noun or adjective is superfluous, in an effort to describe with words what can be simply addressed to, in the end, with just a single essential term: Masterpiece. Even more than with the previous "Profondo Rosso" (1975), it is with "Suspiria" (1977) that the legendary bound between the Argento and Goblin reached its peak, to a level that has never been reached before to date.Four d…
Stranger Calls To Land: Cassette Selections 2010-2017
"Over the past few years, we started hearing solo jaw harp cassettes by a Canadian musician who called himself Chik White. Some of them were straight-forward somewhat-folky blasts of righteousness, others used studio effects to emphasize the psychedelic qualities of the instrument (or so it seemed), and others were nature-based explorations of the jaw harp's drone possibilities. Heard individually they were striking, but listened to as a group, they went way beyond that. We got in touch wi…
Same Animal, Different Cages Vol. 3: Civil War Songs
"In the third volume of the Same Animal, Different Cages series, American composer David First does a 180 from the purely sound-for-sound's sake explorations of the first two volumes and gives eleven emotional outpourings performed exclusively on solo harmonica. Despite this minimalist single-instrument approach, First makes each of these songs sound fully realized; anything more would simply be crowding the sonic space. First has produced perhaps one of the first folk-music responses to …
