“Squadra Omega is an Italian psychedelic free-form jam band that knows how to bend your ears. It is The Grateful Dead, Sun Ra and Coltrane all rolled together in one night of all joy and dread abandoned. This is some of the best free improvisation you will find in avant jazz and rock. There’s a lot of 70s jam rock influence but they interact and mix their influences together totally 21st century.”
“Bushman’s Revenge aims to combine the jazz/improv background of the rhythm section with the rock/metal background of the guitarist to create their own expressive music inspired just as much by Black Sabbath and Jimi Hendrix as by Ornette Coleman and Albert Ayler.”
“Here the band drops the compositional pretense and just gets down to business with a non-stop guitar oriented attack. Like most English bands in the style, Cherokee Mist have a clear idea of style and dynamics, so it’s not a blistering overload of the senses that makes one nauseous in 10 minutes. It’s easy to listen to, and yet there are many fiery jams to behold.”
Fully instrumental album of spontaneous jams with great Hammond organ. This can easily be best progressive rock band from France.
Rare live album by Swedish supergroup with Georg Wadenius on guitar who later joined Blood, Sweat & Tears. Known primarly as “best Swedish band of 70s” and Grammy Award-winning hitmakers this album however mostly instrumental and built on improvisation.
“Riding the brink of the stoned rock revolution skates the new heroes of thee electric guitar mayhem, Midnite Snake. Bearded and dirty, Midnite Snake is a Pittsburgh power trio that plays instrumental acid rock until death does part. Members are Alexei Plotnicov electric guitar, Jim Lingo electric bass, Paul Quattrone (Modey Lemon greatness) drums and Fog Hog on electric fog.”
A live rarity from the early days of Kraftwerk with Michael Rother and Klaus Dinger so basically we get mix of Kraftwerk and Neu! Whole album consisting of long distorted heavy krautrock jams with doom mood ala Black Sabbath.
Underrated guitar god Frank Marino at his best captured his raw energetic style of soloing and covering Voodoo Chile and Red House of Jimi Hendrix. Orgasmic improvisational guitar journey into deep space.
