Tony Levin - Bringing It Down To The Bass

Tony Levin – Bringing It Down To The Bass

Tony Levin’s seventh solo album, Bringing It Down to the Bass and acts as a kind of autobiography exploring themes from his musical life. It features numerous collaborations spanning his more than fifty-year career, both on tour and in the…

Renaissance - Running Hard: The Albums 1974-1976 (4CD Clamshell Box)

Renaissance – Running Hard: The Albums 1974-1976 (4CD Clamshell Box)

Another day, another Renaissance release. It seems as if Esoteric has gone slightly bonkers with their treatment of the symphonically inclined prog favourites, but it’s no surprise that this extremely talented group are the darlings of their collection. Instead of…

Silje Marsh - Sun Will Prevail

Silje Marsh – Sun Will Prevail

This collection of eight short songs explores a number of emotionally charged states which are complimented by the intimate production, and uncluttered instrumentation. Some songs are beautifully unsettling. Sometimes they feel like a hug from a treasured friend. The album,…

Various Artists – Remembering Gary Brooker

Various Artists – Remembering Gary Brooker (Boxset)

Gary Brooker, of course, will always be associated with Procol Harum. Starting with A Whiter Shade of Pale and continuing with a series of classic tracks and albums, they went their own way in progressive and, at times, classical rock,…

Skin Alley - Sun Music: The Complete Recordings 1969-1973 (Remastered 4CD Boxset)

Skin Alley – Sun Music: The Complete Recordings 1969-1973 (Remastered 4CD Boxset)

Well, Skin Alley was certainly a surprise to me. The band’s name, coupled with the rather striking monochrome artwork of a copper sticking his tongue out, certainly evokes the image of a punk band like the Sex Pistols. But when…

Kevin Ayers – Shooting At The Moon (Remastered Vinyl)

Kevin Ayers – Shooting At The Moon (Remastered Vinyl)

Much like the Alan Parsons Project, I only ever bought Kevin Ayers’s first solo album, Joy of a Toy, back in the days when I was exploring a lot of new prog. As an addendum to the essay in my…
