Modern and grounded in the 1960s hard-bop sensibility, the American pianist and composer Albert Dailey (1939 – 1984) had perfect control over his instrument. Since an early age he played with cutting-edge musicians of the likes of Art Blakey, Sarah Vaughan, Stan Getz, Charles Mingus, and Lee Konitz, only to name a few. But despite that, he was an underrated artist during his lifetime, receiving the deserved recognition only after his death. Renaissance 2 November 1977 is his second album, played…
Big tip! Fifty years on, and it still sounds like a secret. Carlos Walker's A Frauta de Pã remains one of those rare Brazilian albums that collectors circle obsessively, its original RCA Victor pressings commanding reverence - and prices - entirely disproportionate to the world's awareness of it. That wait is now over.
Recorded in 1975, when Walker was just 19 years old, A Frauta de Pã arrived at a precise confluence in Brazilian music - that charged mid-decade moment when MPB (Música Popular Br…
Cool Jojo was recorded from 3 to 5 December 1979 at Epicurus Studio in Tokyo under the direction of guitarist Masayuki Takayanagi. The album features the band ‘Second Concept,’ combining electric guitar, saxophone, keyboards, bass, and drums. The programme consists mainly of original compositions reflecting the band's electric jazz and experimental orientation in the late 1970s.
Go On with the George Otsuka 5 was recorded in 1972 in Japan for the Three Blind Mice label. The album features a quintet led by drummer George Otsuka, a major figure in Japanese jazz in the 1960s and 1970s. The repertoire includes original compositions as well as contemporary hard bop standards.
Moon Ray was recorded on 21 and 22 April 1977 in Japan for the Three Blind Mice label. The album features the quartet led by alto saxophonist Yoshio Otomo, accompanied by Tsuyoshi Yamamoto (piano), Tamiko Kawabata (double bass) and Arihide Kurata (drums). The programme consists of standards from the American jazz repertoire as well as an original composition by Otomo. The production is part of the TBM label's series of acoustic recordings.
Recorded in Tokyo in June 1978 after his stay in the United States, Midnight Sun captures the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio in a format typical of the Three Blind Mice aesthetic: full, dynamic sound and natural breathing of the playing. Between standards (‘Autumn Leaves’, ‘Love Is Here To Stay’) and more personal themes, Yamamoto favours melodic narration, with a deep left hand and a very singing touch.

Released in 1972, Riff Raff is a bold statement from a British prog quartet exploring the intersection of rock and jazz-inflected textures. The album moves between blues-tinged grooves, melodic prog passages, and expansive jazzy-rock moments, all anchored by tight rhythms, expressive guitar, and organ flourishes. Standout tracks like the opener and La Même Chose show off the band’s adventurous spirit, balancing precision with spontaneity. Though the variety of songwriters gives the album a loose…

A delirious cult concept album disguised as pop, first released in 1971, where psychedelic grooves, funk and global rhythms meet phonetic pseudo-Japanese chants, judo-master ritual cries and a children's choir. Sampled by Erykah Badu, Madlib and DopeLemon, and the unlikely spark behind Bananarama's debut. This can only be the fabulous world of Yamasuki.
In the spring of 1971, somewhere between Brussels, Paris and a collective pop fever dream, Le Monde Fabuleux Des Yamasuki landed on vinyl. It so…
Here comes one of the most hidden 70s Cosmic Soul Funk vinyl 45 from East Germany. With the desire to bring the black Soul & Funk rhythm to the stages and dance floors of the GDR, a short-lived top band was formed after the dissolution of the Horst Krüger Band in 1976. Gotte Gottschalk and Petko Datschew formed the group Neue Generation. This group had everything it needed to take off quickly: first-class and experienced instrumentalists, composers, plenty of fresh creativity, and good connectio…

Jardim Elétrico (1971) is a vibrant and inventive entry in the Brazilian band Os Mutantes’ discography, marking the transition beyond the core Tropicália movement into a heavier, more experimental blend of psychedelic rock, Brazilian popular music, and early progressive influences. The album balances playful irreverence with darker, more electric textures, featuring distorted guitars, studio experimentation, layered vocal harmonies, and the charismatic interplay between Rita Lee, Arnaldo Baptist…

The Apryl Fool’s self-titled album Apryl Fool (1969) is a singular psychedelic rock record born from the collaboration between Japanese musicians Hiro Yanagida and Takashi Matsumoto and American producer Gary Walker. The album fuses West Coast psychedelia with baroque pop, orchestral arrangements, and subtle Eastern melodic sensibilities, creating a richly textured and cosmopolitan sound that stood apart from both mainstream American psych and contemporary Japanese rock. Though commercially over…
