What are you listening to 2017

I have the previous edition of that Bright Phoebus and am half thinking about getting this expanded remaster. How essential is the bonus material?

have just started listening to the demos: backing is very stripped back (just a single guitar thus far), performance maybe a bit rough & somewhat hesitant, but would still recommend (sound is great & the vinyl edition is beautiful to behold)

Previous edition seems to be ignored in most reviews. I picked it up about 10 years ago. Think it's on an actual cd.
It should be mentioned in the new R& L Thompson thread since it has songs and playing by him

15 takes of "2000 light years from home"

it's really more like 7

7 and change

Satanic Sessions?

Sup with that?

traditional folk music ensemble from the occitan region of france. the main featured vocalist went on to do a psych-folk lp in the mid seventies which looks to be difficult/expensive to find... but thanks to the wonders of the internet:

Nice. I bet this is the stuff Acid Mothers Temple were listening to circa "La Novia."

yep! & as it happens, picked it up in a record shop next door to the place where i saw acid mothers playing later that night :-D

Wow! That's amazing.

Madonna - Lucky Star

this song is very City Pop. also the video reminds of the David Bowie "Be My Wife" video!

Trombone-centric reggae, very good

I really like them on that and throughout that period.

There's a large collection of other live sets by them up at archive.org

Wow, never would've thought to look for them on archive.org (more of a Dead spot in my mind), cheers for the tip!

What's the Mecano?

Spanish synthpop classic from 1982!

Just finished work and spent the last twenty minutes listening to a dude facetime with his bro about potential purchases so now I'm listening to rabid dog war metal

Just reissued. Had never heard it before, what an amazing compilation.

Trance is another favourite. Also bought the Coltrane shanti comp yesterday and am very interested in the Jan Schulte curated compilation - how is it?

Trance is a really impressive and adventurous record, I have a hard time listening to it regularly but it always surprises and moves me whenever I put it on

Oh yeah, early/original Marshall Tucker, before the Caldwell brothers died---Searchin' For A Rainbow and Greatest Hits are cool too (I'd start w GH).
Just listened to the Alice Coltrane collection shown above. So far seems much bluesier (incl. more voices) than I expected, never having heard her before, but goes with the tone and range of Mr. C.'s music, in her own direction---groove sagas along the river, incl. in the desert, with galactic synths swooping overhead.

willem i highly recommend b12's time tourist, the follow up to electro soma, i actually prefer it, to me it's where they really leave their mark on deep techno
