Ten Years After | Positive Vibrations | 1974
Not their finest album but almost any TYA is good for me, so it’s getting a rare outing.

New album from Idris Ackamoor and the Pyramids - an ambitious melange of spiritual jazz with a dash of afrobeat and more than a smidgeon of Funkadelic. Lots of call and response on social issues and ancestry. Malcolm Catto of the Heliocentrics produced.

Just out, forgot to order the vinyl pre-release but given my experience getting Scarlet’s Walk a fortnight late it may not be a bad thing!

Anat Cohen (Clarinet, Bass Clarinet), Vitor Goncalves (Piano, Accordion, Fender Rhodes), Ta Mashiach (Bass, Guitar) and James Shipp (Vibraphone, Percussion, Glockenspiel, Analog Synthesizer).

Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… continuing on this morning with this album, released October 6th, 2022 from Anat Cohen and she and the band are sounding sublime! One fine album…

Wind and Wuthering. Genesis. A rare outing. Some lovely stuff on here. I believe Hackett’s last outing. Greatly missed after he left imho.

A very powerful album from the 1993. Terrifying, moving, pastoral and industrial by turns; has the same affect on me as The Wall. Sonic-ally stunning as well. A forgotten masterpiece imo.

So, not sure this new Steven Wilson mix of Rick Wright’s 1978 solo album Wet Dream really improves it. There are a couple of decent instrumentals (“Funky Deux” and “Drop In From The Top”), and one halfway good song (“Holiday”) but most of the songs are .pretty dismal affairs; despite the sunny Mediterranean imagery this is more akin to a drizzly weekend in Morecambe. Those who like their Floyd flaccid and apolitical will dig it.

Still, the overall package is gorgeous, and it keeps the collection complete.
