San Michael's
*100 copies limited edition black vinyl* The re-release of the 2 seminal psych/prog albums by San Michael’s, the self-titled (1971) one and Nattåg (1972), overlaps not at all coincidentally with the appearance of Kaipa’s 15th studio album Sommargryningsljus, as the fabular universe of the latter revolves around counterfactual rebirth, that is, becoming (re)born as one is getting older. These 2 evergreen albums, essential for savvy collectors of Scandinavian psych/prog, showcase the smooth progre…

Live Floating Anarchy 1977
Historic sole album from Planet Gong capturing Daevid Allen and Gilli Smyth with the classic 70s line-up of Here & Now on their 1977 Floating Anarchy Tour. Planet Gong would prove to be Daevid Allen’s jumping Space-Punk into his music, a kind of transitional project between the Canterbury Gong sound and his prog-punk era. Recorded live, the music on this album is a wild, spacey psychedelic jam. The rough load comes from crazed and rhythms, led by Allen & Smyth’s ever-distinctive clearly marked b…

Intención
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Second album by Spanish cult progressive rock band Attila, released in 1976. Recorded with a five-piece trio formation with a bassist and a member in charge of sound in addition to the trio formation on the previous album.

Fusioon
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Fusioon second album, released in 1974. Whereas the previous album had an appealing, jumbled style that incorporated a variety of elements, this album has a Canterbury-style sound, centred on the organ, and has a somewhat EGG-like intelligence. The ensemble has evolved to new heights, with a somewhat misanthropic sense of humour that is evident in the cover artwork. Remas…
Dedicato A Frazz
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Legendary Italian dark sympho band Semiramis disappeared from the scene in 1973, leaving only one album. Named after an ancient Babylonian queen who is said to have created hanging gardens, and to have been a lover and cruel and inhumane, their sound can be described as dark symphonic. This long out-of-print album was, oddly enough, reunited and released a new album this …
Lord Cromwell Plays Suite For Seven Vices
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* Opus Avantra is an Italian treasure. As the name suggests, Opus Avantra is a one-of-a-kind sound space that combines opposing elements - tradition and innovation - in an aesthetic manner. The sound will forever be etched in the history of Italian rock. As with the previous album, a unique aesthetic avant-garde world where baroque and avant-garde coexist. Reissue in paper …

Sera-Mattina
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* The only solo album by renowned session drummer Gianni Dall'Aglio, a member of Il Volo, released in 1972. Dall'Aglio handles vocals, piano and drums, and presents a cantautore-like sound with a progressive flavour. A deeply moving gem, reminiscent of Il Volo's first album ("Sonno" was composed by Dall'Aglio), with a heartfelt, songful spirit. The mellotron echoes idyllica…
Corte Dei Miracoli

The album was first released in 1976 on the Grog record label. The album is characterised by melodies distinctly oriented towards symphonic rock, which are fully in the groove of great Italian progressive rock. Some similarities can be found with Banco del Mutuo…

Cogli il giorno
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* CD reissue for the ultra-rare second work of acclaimed keyboarder Luciano Basso. As usual a great instrumental work, mostly unknown, underrated and of course very rare in its original form. Musically it is the usual and great blend of classical-influenced progressive music and avant-garde, just as its stunning debut “Voci”. Among the guest musicians on this album, Leonard…
Caution Radiation Area
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* With their new quintet format (including the entry of bassist Ares Tavolazzi) Area managed to consolidate their radical avant-garde approach to jazz-rock and achieve a more powerful ensemble sound: the result was properly incarnated in their genius second album “Caution Radiation Area”, a manifesto of bold inventiveness and sheer energy. Their explosive mixture of Weather…
Alphataurus
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* The only album released in 1973 as the first Magma Record release. Heavy sympho sound with keyboards as the main instrument, faithfully reproducing the three-sided cover, which was considered a phantom album in the LP era. Released in paper jacket, remastered in 2010 and on high-quality SHM-CD. Long-awaited encore pressing of this long-unavailable album!
Gialorgues
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* "Debut album released from this French outfit which has reached "cult status". "Gialorgues" has found its way onto many "best of" lists that I have seen and for good reason. Shylock are from the King Crimson school of progressive rock in style but have certainly their own unique style and delivery. For the most part Shylock were a three piece band who brought in some gues…
Flying Teapot
*Comes in a CD-sized papersleeve album replica (gatefold), with obi-strip and insert of notes mostly in Japanese..2024 stock* The first of the Radio Gnome Invisible trilogy, released in 1973.
