The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band were an American psychedelic rock band out of Los Angeles, California, who made some of the best music of the era in my opinion.

[Music] OF RINGS AND SWEDES — VINYL CONNECTION
How to approach Bo Hansson’s Lord of the Rings? Having played it so often over many decades, the chances of this reviewer listening dispassionately are about the same as Gollum opening a secondhand jewellery store. It must be said that not everyone likes the Swedish keyboard player’s album. In its early days, MOJO: The Music Magazine […]
[Music] Piirpauke – Fyssouni & Imala Maika
Finland’s legendary Piirpauke were among the first bands which could be termed as World Music.

Phaedra, by Tangerine Dream, is considered a classic for electronic music, Kosmische Musik, Prog Rock, New Age and Krautrock.
[Music] LIGHT COORPORATION 64:38 Radio Full Liv(f)e /Fifth Album Coming Soon /RéR Recommended London
LIGHT CORPORATION out of Poland are quickly becoming one of my favorite progressive rock bands. They meld together influences like King Crimson and Univers Zero, while adding a touch of something new. That they are being released on Chris Cutler’s legendary record label, Recommended, says a lot about the quality of their music.

[Music] Dave Swarbrick, British Folk Fiddler, Dies at 75
I never wanted to turn my blog into an obituary list, but it seems that 2016 is the year to do that. The legendary violinist of Fairport Convention has passed on. The New York Times’ Jon Pareles writes about Dave’s passing here.
[Music] The Durutti Column – LC (Full Album)
The Durutti Column produced what I feel is one of the most perfectly atmospheric albums ever made, crossing post-punk, jazz and ambient music.
[Music] Cluster – Fotschi Tong
Cluster are the grandfathers of ambient and electronica. This is one of great places to start if you want to learn the history of electronic music.
[Music] Rajaz – I Talk To The Wind
The Giles, Giles & Fripp/King Crimson classic is covered amiably by Rajaz, and progressive rock band out of Brazil.
