Can - A Spectacle

Can - A Spectacle (1979)

A late, late Can jam. I had no idea that even after "Soon After Babaluma" they created music for planets to have sex to.

Q-Tip recently put this track to werk:


Thanks to Jonathan for hippin' me to this.

Airto Moreira - Uri, Peasant Dance & Return to Forever

Airto Moreira - Uri (1971)





















Airto Moreira -Peasant Dance (1974)






























Airto Moreira - Return to Forever (1972)

A crunchy percussion orgy from Brazil's most talented extraneous shell and maraca shaker. As legend has it, Airto's peppery voice and cuica playing is said to penetrate directly into the Eye in the Sky, while simulatneously reaching the depths of the underworld; reaching even the most loathsome and malignant of castaways.

Hubert Eaves - Painful Pleasure

Hubert Eaves - Painful Pleasure (1976)

This track is just glossy enough to make me slip on the Arsenio pants and holleur "watch out neoahh" to high waisted girls; yet creamy enough to savor in my monitors. Jerhi Curl vibez w/ Mtume, Reggie Lucas and Howard King.

George Duke - My Soul

George Duke - My Soul (1972)

Pull yr girlfriend out of the closet and deflate her on your carpeted dance floor.

Keith Jarrett - Clavichord Improvisations

From "Book of Ways"

Henri Texier - Kan ar Labour

Henri Texier - Kan ar Labour (1979)

A fantastic folky-jazz tune from his last solo/multi-tracked album from the late 70s.

Soft Machine - Live on French TV (Out-Bloody-Rageous)

Lynn Dobson rarely played with Soft Machine. I believe he only recorded on "Third" although he could have done other studio work with them in the early 70s. The groove that Hugh Hopper and Mike Ratledge ride-out is only 24 bars on the original recording of "Out-Bloody-Rageous" but is here extended into six minutes, allowing Lynn Dobson to play a wonderful extended solo.
