A Lark Ascending Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Remastered editions of the two Hatfield and the North albums are about to appear. I love these two records - bought them as the came out on LP in '74 and '75. The first CD edition of'The Rotters Club' has always been fine to my ears but the first album was remastered in a very muddy and flat way. So I'm hoping this version will do the job - I don't normally chase upgrades beyond a certain point but these records are magical to me. http://www.cherryred.co.uk/esoteric/artist...andthenorth.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7/4 Posted September 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Guitar World/Guitar One actually mentions Fred Firth, but in a questionable context.

7/4 Posted October 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 With this now released it might be time to bumb up this thread: So you finally got it! Good! That run of it (plus the originals) that you noticed last week was a great wash of wonderful sound and, like I said, something that I thought you'd really enjoy. The booklets are real eye-openers. ® I finally got the first box this evening, I'll be digging into it in the morning. The second one will be here next week!

7/4 Posted February 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Gilgamesh - Arriving Twice I've listened to this a lot times in the last few days, great 70s Canterbury fusion. Keyboardist Alan Gowen had ties to National Health and Bruford, died in '81 from leukemia. I own the other two Gilgamesh albums, time to listen to them again!

A Lark Ascending Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 I was listening to this one only yesterday: Always come across as less focussed than National Health or Hatfield to me - the tunes and structures less defined, a bit more noodling. But enjoyable, nonetheless. Phil Lee is a fine guitarist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something I'm really noticing this time around. What ever happened to Phil Lee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Lark Ascending Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Seems to be still around, though doing more standards and the like.

A Lark Ascending Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) The two (original) Matching Mole albums are getting a reissue (with second discs of twiddly bits). I'll go for these as the existing releases are a bit muddy. http://www.burningshed.com/store/canterburyscene/ Strongly recommended to Wyattophiles or those just interested in this particular byway of improvised rock. Matching Mole is mainly instrumental with Caravan's Dave Sinclair in the organ chair; fairly rambling but in a nice way. Two wonderful Wyatt vocals at the start - 'O Caroline' and 'Signed Curtain' were wonderful balms when suffering the inevitable disappointments of unrequited longing as a 17 year old. Little Red Record has vocals dotted throughout though it's still mainly an instrumental record. Tremendous electric piano from Dave McRae. A bit more focussed than the first.

sidewinder Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) I've got the first 'Matching Mole' on vinyl. It's a good occasional listen - any fan of Soft Machine will appreciate it and the follow-on. The front cover of the follow-on always gives me a chuckle. Recorded at a time when 'Chairman Mao's Little Red Book' was 'de-rigueure' with future politocos, Fred The Shreds etc. Edited February 12, 2012 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romualdo Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Have both of the Matching Mole LP's - might get them out & give them a whirl (havn't listed to them for years) Robert Wyatt has a very special place in my music likes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
