MIKE KENEALLY - BOIL THAT DUST SPECK (1994, USA, CD)
Mike on 1994's BTDS: "This was an album I very much needed to make-- an album wrenched out of my darkest depths while in the throes of an exciting variety of emotional torment, this album is a lot less goofy than hat." The result has been heralded as a masterpiece by critics and fans. Its songs have been a major part of Mike's live sets for years and head-ripping live versions are featured his 2006 Guitar Therapy Live release. BTDS has been unavailable for eons, and collectors have paid exhorbitant prices for it.
Tracklist: 1.Sooth 2.'Cause Of Breakfast 3.The Desired Effect 4.Skunk 5.I'm Glad There's Lemon-Freshened Thorax In You 6.Top Of Stove Melting 7.Aglow 8.Bryan Beller's Favorite Song 9.Deep-Fried Skinks Are Go! 10.Good Morning, Sometime 11.Them Dolphins Is Smart 12.1988 Was A Million Years Ago 13.Yep, Them Dolphins Is Smart, Alright 14.Bullys (sic) 15.My Dilemma 16.Helen Was Brash 17.Weekend 18.Land Of Broken Dreams 19.Blameless (The Floating Face) 20.That Claim-Jumping Swine, O'Bannon 21.Faithful Axe 22.Natty Trousers 23.Scotch 24.There Have Been Bad Moments 25.Frang Tang, The Valentine Bear 26.I Will 27.In The Bone World 28.The Old Boat Guy, Part One 29.The Old Boat Guy, Part Two 30.The Old Boat Guy, Part Three.

MASTER CYLINDER - ELSEWHERE (1980, LP, USA)
Hard-to-find but good jazz rock with a Canterbury flair at times from this Texas-based group. Lineup includes keys, guitar, bass, and drums, but various guest play woodwind and brass instruments, and there’s even a Serge modular keyboardist! A promo writeup states: “The music of Master Cylinder is a smooth blend of everything from tight ensemble composition to totally free improvisation; complex layers of polyrhythms to surging waves of pure sound; sections and bits of compostion surfacing from the flow and then redissolving".
"On the usually soulless Inner City label, Master Cylinder was anything but that. Their album has a strong melodic sense, and it seems the group must've been informed by the Canterbury groups like early Soft Machine or National Health, as well as the DC based Happy the Man. While ostensibly a jazz album, it's these rock elements that bring Master Cylinder to the next level. A very good album that time has forgot".(Thomashayes)
tracklist:
1. Overture 2. Isabelle 3. Elsewhere 4. Silhouette 5. Blasp 1937 6. Pllus 3 7.Hobb & Gebb

GRAMIGNA - GRAN DISORDINE SOTTO IL CIELO (1977, LP, ITA)
This largely unknown group from northern Italy has only released an album, but this can be a nice surprise to anyone into the Canterbury/Rock In Opposition sound, that only had good releases in Italy by STORMY SIX and PICCHIO DAL POZZO.Their ten-track concept album "Gran disordine sotto il cielo" has strong similarities with the english group HENRY COW in the use of the female voice of Françoise Godard and such instruments as bassoon, oboe and violin. An interesting album indeed, this deserves to be heard.
Tracklist:
1. Per 2. Alice nel pozzo 3. Alice e le regine 4. Alice oltre lo specchio 5. Piccole voci 6. Ombre rosse 7. Per il bene della patria 8. È una notte 9. Arrivano i barbari 10. Tarantola

NICHELODEON - CINEMANEMICO (ITALY)
Claudio Milano, an italian friend of this blog writes to me for promote his project:
Nichelodeon is an insane alternative to entertainment. It's a music project oblique and visionary, tainted by different kinds of music and arts. It was born in 2007 thanks to Claudio Milano, a songwriter for theatre productions, Francesco Zago and Maurizio Fasoli, electric guitar and piano with the band Yugen and Riccardo Di Paola, an avant/jazz player (synth). The new cd live "Cinemanemico" (2008 Progawards nomination as Best Debut Record) was recorded in the late 2007 after a series of successful live exhibitions. It features tracks written within ten years, played by different ensembles in shows in Italy, Holland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Czech Republic and Russia (Moscow, First Biennale of Contemporary Arts, January 2005) . In the performance "The room plays what I cannot see”, the quartet takes part actively with readings from Pellegrino Artusi's "The science of Cookery and the Art of Eating Well” (1891), videoinstallations by the director Marco Rossi and Enrico Maria Brocchetta, sculptures by "letestedimary", scenographies and fleeting theatrical creations by Manuela Tadini, referring to the 20th Century Avant/Gard movements. On June 2008, among the winners of the XII "Omaggio a Demetrio Stratos" review, the Nichelodeon were guests, with Albert Hera and Giovanni Cospito, of the "Factory Art" project, dedicated to John Cage's figure and work. On November 2008, Luca Olivieri (synth, programming, glockenspiel), composer for theatre productions and member of the italian art/folk band Yo Yo Mundi join the project.
