Review : http://www.psychemusic.org/World2.html#anchor_69 · FindersKeepers V.A. : Pomegranates (IR,1960s->1970s,pub.2010)***°° Tr.4, Googoosh : “Talagh” 5 min Tr.12,Googoosh : “Bemoun Ta Bemounam” 4 min Tr.15,Dariush : “Cheshm-e Man” 5 min 14 28 Typical 70s music for Iran, showing great crossover abilities with disco, salsa and so on. Dariush is a melancholic folk song, speaking to the heart without understanding the words. Review : http://www.psychemusic.org/pomegranates.html#anchor_148 · Analog Africa Anibal Velasquez y su Conjunto : Mambo Loco (re.2010)***** Tr.4, “Mi Cumbia” 3 min Tr.7, “Mambo Loco” 3 min 6 34 Creative dance related songs, renewing the local styles with it. Introducing the accordion for instance. The second track shows Afro-styled polyrhythmic skills. Review : http://www.psychemusic.org/colombia.html#anchor_36 · EM Bharat Karki & Party : International Music (IND,1978,re.2010)*** Tr.7, “Arabika” 3 min 3 37 Rather primitive crossover psych-pop item. Perhazps my favourite track. Review : http://www.psychefolk.com/INDIAPSYCH.html#anchor_108 · Monitor George Mgrdichian : The now Sounds of the Middle East (TU,1986)**° Tr.3, “Yesterday” 2 min 39 Beatles song in an instrumental oud based rumba version. No review. · EM Rudy Smith Quartet : Still Around (TR/DK/SA,1984)****° Tr.2, “Ursia” 7 min Tr.5, “Be Bach” 5 min 12 51 Flamenco-jazz track with steel-pan leader, and some (good but rather typical 70s inspiration of) Bach/classic jazz fusion. Rudy Smlith is from Trinidad (near Venezuela) but this band was based in Danmark. Review : http://psychevanhetfolk.homestead.com/groups2.html (soon) · Demo Alberto Marsicano : Raga Beatles (BRAZ,2010)**** Tr.4, “Norwegian Mood” 4 min 55 Promising demo of ragas from Beatles songs. Alberto is still looking for a label. This is not the final mix. Review soon : http://www.psychefolk.com/marsicano.html · Moonjune Beppe Crovella : What's Rattlin' On The Moon ? (I,rec.2009,pub.2010)***’ Tr.16, “Moon Geezers” 4 min Tr.4, “The Man who waved at trains” 5 min 9 64 Keyboard interpretations from Mike Ratledge compositions (Soft Machine). Beppe Crovella comes from the famous Italian 70s progressive jazz-rock band Art & Mestieri. I chose a solo piano composition. Review : http://www.psychemusic.org/progreview.html#anchor_59 · Moonjune Doubt : Never Pet A Burning Dog (UK/US/B,2010)***°' Tr.1, “Corale di san Luca” 4 min Tr.2, “Laughter” 7 min 11 75 Convincing post-Soft Machine inspired new Canterbury rock inspirations. Best to listen from start to finish or it becomes a more difficult listen. Rather wild and perhaps a bit avant-prog for some listeners. Review : http://www.psychemusic.org/softmachine2.html#anchor_73 · Moonjune Iron Kim Style (US,2010)***° Tr.1, “Mean Streets of Pyongyang” 11 min 86 Improvised jazz-rock, here with some (early 70s) Miles Davis influence.

Review : http://www.psychemusic.org/THAILAND.html#anchor_129 · Gear Fab Rock Island (US,1970,re.2010)***° Tr.2, “Running through my mind” 5 min 95 Nice hard blues-psych rock song with some Hammond organ. Review : http://www.psychemusic.org/60S-70S.html#anchor_346 · FindersKeepers Billy Green : OSR "Stone" (AUS,1974,re.2010)***° Tr.1, “Eco Blue/Toadstrip” 7 min (ev.shortened) Tr.5, “Cosmic Funeral” 2 min Tr.19, “Do not go gentle (Rage)” by Jeannie Lewis 4 min 13 108 Three of the weirdest moments of this Australian biker movie soundtrack. Review : http://www.psychemusic.org/60S-70S.html#anchor_352 · World In Sound Shizoey : Lineaments (Ö,2010)**°° Tr.7, “Black Stones” 4 min 112 Strange, original combination of punk, psych and heavy rock.
