Hi Rod, I've been listening to both versions of the death and resurrection of Christ that you sent me. Thanks again for that and indeed the rather splendid Penderecki at 80 collection. Reason for the mail is that I can't seem to find any details online regarding the version conducted by the man himself. Do you have any? Just my curiosity is all. Hope all is well. Best Dave H.

(Quote)I thought I recognised that cover but when I listen it's more of a generic big band sound, not what I need just now. OTOH this album features our man in a different setting, think I'll plop some cash down for this one and t…(Quote)
Oh yes this is ticking a lot of boxes. Thanks for the heads up! Do you know the previous albums?
@rostasi Congrats on the above. Unfortunately I've been otherwise occupied of late but hope to have a catch up session soon.

I'll second that! Currently trying to decide if this is a good time to start buying FLAC files from Boomkat seeing as I'm not going to go back to streaming just because of the massive Tzadik album dump.

I keep meaning to have a deep dive into my copy but TBH I'm struggling to keep up with my digital copies of Audion, plus The Wire and you know, real reading! Happily these days a lot of the albums can be heard on YouTube if nowh…Only just spotted this thread - silly me. Just today I received the latest newsletter from BIS via eClassical so their offers and bargains are still available from that platform. If they go exclusively with Apple Music I'll have to say goodbye ……

How I used to love having a bitch and moan about the Vortex with it's crappy sight lines, noise from the square outside and cramming too many chairs around small tables. Of course I miss it badly being up in Orkney...

Yep this is the more famous of the two and probably my favourite; but there is much to enjoy with both. The snamke through the skull is a wonderfully disgusting image.
One of the Swiss contributions to the so-called Krautrock scene. A Conny Plank production on the Pilz label. Not forgetting the classic cover. Slightly psych blues rock with flute, so yes akin to some early Tull.Charles Gayle and Richard Davis RIP.
(Quote)I bought quite a few of these at some point, maybe the last time you reached this part of the alphabet @confused ? I must dig them out. In the meantime…^^^ Nice, not seen that photo before @rostasi ^^^

I think most folk would agree with you considering 2 were basically all the people in 1 who weren't just commune members but could actually play an instrument. I do think 1 were important though in their own way. And I should pl…(Quote)Well you can't do that with a streaming playlist! Still, of all the records to do that to...Must have been one of those folk who insist Tanz Der Lemminge is their best album.(Quote)
Er, Adrian Sherwood surely? Celebrating early?

Seconded.

That's a massive quality collection that I only ever dipped a toe into. Thanks for the reminder.
From the Golden Year of 1971I do love me some Hawkwind. The only time I saw them was on the Levitation tour. Our man Ginger stuck a ten minute drum solo into the middle of B…(Quote)
Thanks for the NoNotFun reminder. I've just bought that and a few other things. I used to scarf up whatever I could find back in the Emusic days as 6 or 8 tracks when I had 200 downloads a month was something or nothing. Now bei…Listening right now. Funny how your ears/brain works and it all sounds "normal". Thanks for the tip, Bandcamp Friday next week!(Quote)
I once had to endure EC at the Royal Albert Hall because of my lady friend at the time. I never did like his music even before I learned what happened in Wolverhampton (?) back in 1974. Horse for courses and all that.

That's certainly a very good album. Funnily I went to the open day for Sussex Uni having applied to the American Studies course. I didn't even go to the interview (and therefore didn't get on the course) as I was wandering aroun…
