November 6 street date. "Future Memories" is About Aphrodite's second album on Floating World Records. It is a brilliant follow up to their debut album "Polaris". Their music is a progressive crossover between experimental jazz improvisation, classical and electronic music. The rhythmic and textural complexity that comes from the combination of Theremin, Pipe and vocal harmonies is both haunting and uplifting, adding an ethereal layer to the percussion and piano which drive the majority of the album.

November 6 street date. Viennese improvisation guitar/drums duo ALSO return with a superb live recording. Katharina Ernst and Martin Siewert have been working together for more than five years now and continue to enjoy their compelling dynamics. This set is full of fire and thunder but also drawn by some striking and fragile moments through a variety of effects and some delicate lap steel play -- true two masters in working on the axis of refracting and reflecting, and throwing it back again. Personnel: Katharina Ernst - drums, toys; Martin Siewert - guitars, electronics. Recorded live by Ronald Pfisterer at the New Adits festival in Celovec, 2018. Produced by Katharina Ernst/Martin Siewert. Mixed and mastered by Martin Siewert. Cover artwork by Michael Breyer. View all titles by this artist

November 6 street date. This CD contains 13 tracks from the Animals on Ready Steady Go!, 27 tracks taken off US TV, 9 tracks from French radio, and an interview with Eric Burdon. 3 tracks from August 1965 are by The Animals Big Band; the boys supplementing their stage presence with a brass section - no British band had ever before sounded this close to an American black jump blues outfit. While The Complete Live Broadcasts I zeroed in on the songs, this set captures much of the atmosphere of the group's live performances. The Animals created dozens of superb tracks across their singles, EP's and albums between 1964 and 1966 but the best way to experience the group was live. View all titles by this artist

November 6 street date. Kristofer Âström returns to the northern blues with his new album Hard Times , the melancholic Scandinavian version of the Americana genre. For 20 years already Aström embodies the popular Nordic songwriter from Sweden. Following three full band albums ( Go, Went, Gone 1998, Leaving Songs and Northern Blues 2001) he began a phase when he concentrated on acoustic solo recordings, as showcased on his EP trilogy from 2003-2006 ( Black Valley , Dead End , and There For ). Hard Times now is the tenth studio album by the artist and it's a return to his roots. By the way, the album title had already been chosen before the Covid-19 disaster hit the world. It's inspired by a country song by Stephen Foster , "Hard Times Come Again No More". Âström: "Though the music on Hard Times is not country, it certainly has the feeling of it."

November 6 street date. The pioneering electronic composer Mort Garson ("Mother Earth's Plantasia") takes on supernatural phenomena with lush synth grooves on "The Unexplained", his only release under the name Ataraxia. Subtitled "Electronic Musical Impressions of the Occult", the album explores tarot, astral projection, seances, and more with Garson's signature Moog synthesizer serving as the listener's tour guide to the paranormal. The exploratory, whimsical spirit of its creator is evident throughout the release, but it also takes its subject matter seriously, making it essential for anyone interested in musical conjurations of the occult. This remastered edition marks the first official reissue of the album since its initial 1975 release, and it includes all the original liner notes. View all titles by this artist

November 6 street date. Following 2019's release of Azymuth 's Demos (1973-75) (FARO210CD, FARO2101LP, FARO2102LP), two more home-recorded demo tracks by the Brazilian psychedelic jazz-funk masters have surfaced from a tape in drummer Ivan Conti 's private archive. These five-decade old recordings by the young band show the maturity, musicianship and distinctive style that saw Azymuth become one of the most important groups in Brazilian history. Featuring an instrumental take on Roberto and Erasmo Carlos ' 1969 Jovem Guarda hit "As Curvas da Estrada de Santos", and spacey psych-folk oddity "Zé e Paraná", the new 7" release via Far Out Recordings shines yet more light on this critical period for Azymuth.

November 6 street date. Why “Official Bootleg”? How can a bootleg, or rather, the recording of a performance or a concert made illegally, without authorization, be “official”? It would appear to be a perfect oxymoron. Well, it is possible if it is the artist himself who wants to do it. That is precisely what we have decided to do. For years we have been powerless to assist in the publication of our work, especially abroad, without being consulted in anyway, nor have we been able to evaluate the quality of the work and let alone oppose it. Not to mention receiving any payment for the sale of these bootlegs, which has gone to who knows who and who knows where, certainly we have not gained anything. I have always refused to even listen to them in order to avoid suffering and getting angry. We have now decided to produce, the Bootleg, using the recording of our concert on 31 May, 2018 at L'Asino che Vola in Rome. Mind you: it is not “Balletto di Bronzo live”, otherwise it would have been conceived and carried out in a very different way and from the onset. In fact, we have not made any changes or corrections: everything is very real as that evening we had no intention of recording the concert... Never mind if perhaps there are some imperfections: on the other hand, there was a great deal of energy, passion and perspiration on that stage. This “Official Bootleg” pays tribute to the actual line-up, which I consider to be the best of all of them so far, comprising, besides myself, of Riccardo Spilli on drums and Ivano Salvatori on bass. This was our second performance together. (Gianni Leone) View all titles by this artist

November 6 street date. Canadian improv unit and frequent Damo Suzuki backing band, The Band Whose Name Is A Symbol, release Berserkir Volume II. Contains four long tracks of hypnotic and freaked out cosmic haze (all recorded in the same four-hour session that yielded Berserkir Volume I). The pieces are framed by supercharged, blistering, psychedelic dual guitars, pummeling rhythm, mutated; Miles-inspired flights of free form trumpet and flowing synth drones touching side excursions into the depths of alien prog.

November 6 street date. Souffle Continu Records present the first ever reissue of Alain Bellaïche 's Sea Fluorescent , originally released in 1976. Frenchman who is on the return from the USA is something unusual. Everything seemed to start out well for Alain Bellaïche: Born in Tunis, childhood in Cannes, studies at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, his first folk concerts folk in youngsters' houses and clubs where everyone was well behaved... Then, in 1973, he left for the States. Bellaïche would settle for around ten years, with, as a soundtrack, the two albums that he would record there. Metropolitain (1974), which was the fruit of his collaboration with the Heldon guitarist Alain Renaud , and Sea Fluorescent. Bellaïche, a multi-faceted and iconoclastic musician, composed Sea Fluorescent just following his desires: from a cosmic ballad ("St Andrea"), to West Coast funk ("California"), dreamlike Spanish influences ("Spanish Roots"), optimistic blues ("Foolin' Myself"), a solar track ("I'm Angry", "Sun Blues"). And the Frenchman was in good company: Jean-Marie Fabiano (from Fabiano Orchestra ) on percussion, Jerry Mahavishnu Goodman on violin on "Got My Place In That Country" or John Hicks whose cascades of notes bring reggae and western closer to the "reassembled" jazz that the pianist was playing at the time. A highly sought-after French jazz funk fusion nugget. Remastered from the master tapes. Licensed from Alain Bellaïche. View all titles by this artist

November 6 street date. Back in the 1950s, THE BEVERLEY SISTERS were the most popular, highest-earning female entertainers in the UK. Although they viewed themselves as essentially a live act - preferring cabaret, summer seasons and television work - rather than recording artists, they cut plenty of records. This unique compilation pulls together the very best of their output for Columbia, Philips, Decca and Columbia (again), between 1951-1962, the very first time this body of work has been thus assembled. Includes their biggest UK hits ‘The Ferry Boat Inn’, ‘Teasin’’, ‘I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus’, ‘Willie Can’, ‘I Dreamed’, ‘Long Black Nylons’, ‘Little Drummer Boy’, ‘Little Donkey’ and ‘Green Fields’. Also includes their one-off US hit, ‘Greensleeves’, alongside signature songs like ‘We Have To Be So Careful’ (which was, bizarrely, banned by the BBC), ‘Sisters’ and ‘It’s Illegal, It’s Immoral, Or It Makes You Fat’. This is an absolute must-have for Beverley’s fans. View all titles by this artist

November 6 street date. A near-invisible presence on the margins of underground pop, Simon Rivers is well into his fourth decade of making sweet, powerful, crushing records. Weaving the messy threads of suburban life into dense tapestries, he has something of the Go-Betweens' gift for melody, something of Mark E Smith's ear for language, something of Vic Godard's common touch, and almost none of the acclaim that should have been his due. Boo hoo. "Every Happiness" should have been a word-of-mouth sensation when it was released, but one way or another there were no mouths, no words. The music papers had the Strokes and the Libertines to write about; the Bitter Springs - a bunch of shambling middle-aged men from the western fringes of London - stood no chance. Released the year Rivers turned 40, it was - deliberately or otherwise - a no-budget parallel to Pulp's midlife cry for help, "This Is Hardcore"; an infra-red goggled view through the darkness on the edge of town. Equal parts storming anthems, introspective wonders and deranged bits of social observation. Released for the first time on vinyl and now expanded to more than 80 minutes, with "Under The Rainbow", a track only heard before on an obscure Spanish compilation album, which was built around what Simon describes as a "disused Kitchens Of Distinction backing track".

November 6 street date. This LP helps answer one of rock’s great "what if?'s". What if Gram Parsons had stayed with the Byrds? Given how few gigs this line-up played, we are lucky that Dutch and Italian radio recorded this May 1968 show live in Rome. Founder Roger McGuinn and newbie Parsons both sing lead, and the result is a fascinating set of "Cosmic American Music". As an added bonus included are two further Bob Dylan covers from TV programme "Playboy After Dark", recorded in September 1968 after Gram had left the band but still true to his vision.
