SUNSET CANYONEERS "SELF TITLED" (YOU ARE THE COSMOS), The Sunset Canyoneers are a North California quartet fronted by
guitarist Jeremy Powers and double bass player William Duke, they’re
steeped in the cosmic country sounds of Gram Parsons laced with such
kindred influences as
the Flying Burrito Brothers, New Riders of the Purple Sage and vintage
Grateful Dead.They set out their stall from the start with the
shimmering pedal steel of Tom Heyman and the clopping percussion of High in the Sky,
a breezy song about, well, getting high in California, switching from
drugs to booze on the close harmonies of the Byrdsian Sweethearts of the
Rodeo bounce of Alcohol in a Gamblin’ Town.These pretty much set the pattern for what follows with the
consistently catchy melodies and hooks, 12-string flourishes, chugging
riffs and poppy choruses, floating across the psychedelic strings-laced
crystal clouds of Junk#1, hanging around in bars with ghosts on
Spirits, conjuring some 60s California dreaming in Los Angeles and
taking a 5D trip with McGuinn on Bluejay. Only £19.99 with free postage!
STEVE KILBEY & MARTIN KENNEDY "present UNSEEN MUSIC UNHEARD WORKS" (BLACK GOLD RECORDS) 2LP set by CHURCH mainman STEVE KILBEY. These dozen tracks are appropriately atmospheric and ethereal. Kilbey
handles all the vocals, his singular voice revealing more range and
emotional depth with each passing year. Along with the expected
mysticism and non-sequiturs, Kilbey's lyrics are focused on remembrance
and loss while the music is suitably spacious and surprisingly
organic-sounding given Kennedy's background. The clean, crisp
arrangements and production may strike some as a little too adult
alternative. However, they're a nice counterpoint to the heavily
textured, often dense sound of the Church's recent output. The melodies
are often subtle, but they're rewarding. The bass harmonics on "Thought
of Leaving" even give a wink back to the Church's "You Took". All in
all, it makes for an extremely worthwhile effort. Kilbey and Kennedy
must agree, as a second album is already in the works. Deluxe 2LP set. Free postage £24.99
THE CHURCHILL'S "LIVE" (BLACK GOLD RECORDS), Limited edition reunion live album by legendary Middle Eastern Psych band, very limited. 18 tracks live from their classic three albums from the late 60s /early 70s. Only £24.99 with free postage!
KEN SHARP - "MY FAVOURITE SONGBOOK" (YOU ARE THE COSMOS), classic Powerpop album, now down to the last few copies! "Sharp’s only gotten sharper as a songsmith, and his soul has gotten
deeper. And five albums later, Music Connection is still impressed with
the singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, as are Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame inductees and legends Ace Frehley and John Oates. And they’re
not just paying lip service to his latest, Beauty in the Backseat
(Jetfighter Records), well maybe a little, as both, along with Utopia’s
Kasim Sulton, make guest appearances on the record, with Oates providing
some Brotherly Love via background vocals on a song called “Philly Kind
of Night.” Sharp tells us about the collab: “Growing up in the Philly
suburbs in the '70s with my ear permanently glued to the radio, it’s no
wonder that soul music is such a huge part of my DNA. Combining sweet
soul music with a keen pop songwriting sensibility, killer arrangements
and musicianship and wondrous vocals."

Phantom Lake: Northern Gothic 3 is, in many ways, a prototypical Green Pajamas album – full of gently acidic melodies, soulfully plainspoken singing and lyrics haunted by ghosts real and imagined. But, as with all “Northern Gothic” branded releases, there’s something special at work here The band is on fire here. “Lisa Lou” and “The Rosebergs” continue the PJs’ tradition of sharp pop songs, while “The Shepard Well” and “Red Bird” does the same for folk rock. “Ana (All the Way Down),” “Monica Talks to Angels” and “Amy’s Gonna Take You Down” feature some of the group’s toughest rock songs ever, with catchy tunes enhanced by steely guitar fills. The Green Pajamas rarely miss and this is a work of genius!
Sealed copies, very limited! Only £31.99 including shipping anywhere!
After creating a sequel to his fantastic 1969 album ‘Think Pink‘ in 2015, Twink decided to create a third instalment in the series. ‘Think Pink III’
is brimming with ideas that make the album sound fresh and
invigorating, as well as having fantastic guitar playing throughout.
This is a record that knows how to pull the listener in, and to keep
them there until every second of it has finished.
Take a song such as
“Lydia Ladybird” for example. With Twink’s stutter induced chorus, echo
filled verses, and a melody to die for, the song takes the listener on a
trip into wonderland, with no tolls in sight. There is also the vocally
hypnotic “Fountain” which contains compulsively intriguing backing
vocals that are an excellent companion to Twink’s own vocals. It
finishes with a dynamite guitar part that could have gone on for an
eternity and nobody would complain.

But don't mistake them to be retro: they all started out in punk-influenced bands, so in the end they've only gone back to their roots, or as they sing in their tribute to Munich's Atomic Cafe: "It's time to get back to basics"
So what you get here is an album packed with perfect shots of power poppin' 70's mod-punk that would be all over the radio in an ideal world. If you dig the CHORDS, the INCREDIBLE KIDDA BAND, the POINTED STICKS, the PLIMSOULS, the YUM YUMS and KURT BAKER then you will dig this album. £19.99 including postage anywhere.
