IVO MALEC - TRIOLA (ou symphonie pour moi-meme)

roughly translated = triola , or symphony for myself. croatian musique concrete composition to sooth the savage beast. malec and the crew were doing it up "noise" style way back. although a little less reknowned than his boys (henry,schaeffer,bayle,kagel,etc.) , ivo is one of the originators and one of the best. i find this lp especially enjoyable. ***note the continuity may be slightly off, because i forgot to save some of the silence.

OMEGA - ÉLÖ

according to wikipedia omega is the most successful hungarian rock band of all time. who knew? further on computer investigation reveals a fansite gammapolis , dedicated to their storied career, i want one of those t-shirts! also turns out this album is readily available on ebay for cheap, i suggest picking up one with the cool silk screened metal cover i think the cover probably makes it sound better. from 1972 on pepita comes this little dose of fake live hungarian heavy rock(note* they do go a little beat on the side 2) for yoo to jam. check it out.***special thanks to our wolfman in berlin con-wolf for this one.

the FUMES - SMUT CITY STRUT b/w TRANSISTOR HEAD

my favorite 45 that i've never heard of...from my transistor head to my transistor feet. yeah! a-side is some west coast white synth funk of the highest caliber. b-side comes on like the buzzcocks jamming with eno's little brother. on consecutive records out of sepulveda, california. i think i may have accidentally named one of my groops after the b-side. oops.

THE ALL SAVED FREAK BAND - FOR CHRISTIANS, ELVES, and LOVERS

every boy and girl can have the holy ghost....jesus freak rural folk rock meets j.r.r. tolkien. sign me up! full length lp released in 1976 on rock the world enterprises. the groop was from geneva, ohio and featured guitar player glenn schwartz, who was in the james gang before he found the lord. the thing about this record is, it's actually really really good. the singing,strings,songs,arrangements,concepts-it's all there. highly recommended.

LSD FREE-FORM COMPOSITION (MUSIC Composed And Played by LSD Influenced Musicians.)

wish i knew more about this record. any info anyone? it was in my bosses basement and i begged him to give it to me for years. finally got it by cleaning the gutters on his house. seriously. as for how it sounds. well, the title kind of explains it, but did the freaked out musicians also do the hand drawn covers? were they the engineers too? seems, they at least had control of the tape speed cause the whole thing is sped up. some killer guitars, piano, occasional "vocals" in the breaks. maybe a little bit neu 2-ish, just because it's sped up? label seems to be underground 12, and apparently it cost $5 when it was "released". maybe it's fake? maybe you're supposed to trip while listening to it?
