Lumpy Gravy
2025 stock Lumpy Gravy is the debut solo album by Frank Zappa, an album of orchestral, electric and concrete sound written by Zappa and performed by a group of session players he dubbed the Abnuceals Emuukha Electric Symphony Orchestra. Zappa conducted the orchestra but did not perform on the album. It is his third album overall: his previous releases had been under the name of his group, The Mothers of Invention. It was commissioned and briefly released, on August 7, 1967, by Capitol Records in…
Uncle Meat
2025 stock Frank Zappa’s “Uncle Meat” is one of the most extraordinary records released in the 1960s, its sonic signature is so distinctive and so ineluctably alien, and it’s really not even a rock album, in the conventional use of the word. Although “Uncle Meat” is easy enough to sit through, it takes multiple plays to even begin to come to terms with it, and to process its irreducible complexity. “Uncle Meat” was never going to trouble even the margins of the mainstream, and its experimentalis…

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…

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…

Live/Dead
CD Version Live/Dead is the first official live album (and fourth overall) released by the rock band Grateful Dead. Recorded over a series of concerts in early 1969 and released later the same year, it was the first live rock album to use 16-track recording. "The Grateful Dead's fourth title was likewise their first extended concert recording. Spread over two LPs, Live/Dead (1969) finally was able to relay the intrinsic sonic magnificence of a Dead show in real time. Additionally, it unleashed s…

I'm Gonna Take You Home
The story of Father Yod, Yahowa 13 and the Source Family could literally fill books, but rest assured, they truly were the "apex of high" in terms of psychedelic music. A tale that transcends conventional music history, this legendary collective represents one of the most radical experiments in communal living and cosmic sound ever documented. The basics paint an extraordinary picture: Father Yod was a WWII flying ace and spiritual seeker who gathered his "children" around him in early 1970s Los…
Dreaming Glass
An’archives are thrilled to present the debut album by Tokyo avant-pop duo Jyuriaano, Dreaming Glass.
Punkraut 78 - 81
S.Y.P.H. formed in 1977 in Solingen and began playing concerts in nearby Düsseldorf. Initially clearly based on punk, the band's sound quickly developed and became increasingly difficult to categorise. In the intensive years that followed, S.Y.P.H.’s productions often featured guests from the Düsseldorf scene around Ratinger Hof or Can’s Holger Czukay.
Unripened (demos And Rare Tracks)
One of the most important 'lost' music recordings out there, this is the original version of the classicl album - recorded in April 1966 - that Andy Warhol eventually presented to Columbia Records, who chose to reject the demos. The track order is different from the release, and the band didn't record "Sunday Morning" and "There She Goes" until later, so those songs aren't included here. Some tracks sound the same as the released tracks, and others are markedly different, and even a little rawer…

Autodidact
"I recorded the bulk of this record over a weekend in January 2018, in the midst of a very minor breakdown that was to last for prettymuch the entire year. I was living in a big house all on my own, smoking too much and not really seeing any people. Happy days indeed. It was tracked in the back room of 97 Hambledon Road, Middlesbrough using two questionable microphones, a broken HH 100 amp, my friends drums and a Tascam DP08 (that wasn't to see the year out, RIP 2009-2018) When I was done, Robbi…
