Next
CD version. "While they have collaborated a good many times, Next is the first recorded evidence of Danish guitarist (or more properly Bastardist) Jørgen Teller playing with American ex-pat multi-instrumentalist Mark Cunningham. The pair both have long histories on the fringes of known sounds. I first heard Teller as a member of the dizzily freakoid Tzarina Q Cut and Cunningham's decades of musical adventurism with Mars, Don King, Bestia Ferida, Blood Quartet, etc. have been well documented, not…

Social Gathering
Mentioned on Julian Cope's essential guide Jap Rock Sampler, Food Brain released their debut album in 1970, gathering influences from prog, proto-hard and psychedelic music.

Space Hymns
A generous and off-the-track psych-rock experiment, Space Hymns originally saw the light in 1971 on influential UK company Vertigo, home of the most forward-thinking prog bands of the time. Enlisting the pure genius of the future 10 CC Kevin Godley (drums, flute) and Lol Creme (lead guitar, synth), the band was led by esoteric frontman Ramases (aka Kimberly Barrington Frost). The vocalist had a vision in the mind to late sixties where the Egyptian Pharaoh informed him he was his new incarnation.…
