 A further collection of missing pieces uncovered since the release of the 18 CD Henry Cow Box that fills in parts of the story still undocumented – even on the bootleg circuit. Intended primarily for box owners – it’s designed to fit into the box – it’s also available in a digipack. Contents: 1: the earliest and only known stage recording of the band as it was in June 1972 (Martin Ditcham, Fred Frith, John Greaves and Tim Hodgkinson) at the first Glastonbury Fayre. The recording is quite clean, though the mix heavily favours bass and guitar but, in a way, this makes it of special interest, both musically and historically. 2, Then there’s the brief two-week iteration of Henry Cow from April 1978 featuring Fred, Tim, Chris and Phil Minton, with an eclectic programme that included a lot of Westbook/Orkhestra materials. 3.Taken from a concert in Bilbao, in 1977, some otherwise unrecorded compositions from the late Cow repertoire in a typical mash up of different snippets – as well as: 4, further unusual extracts from the Chaumont concert in 1976 and: 5, a brief studio moment captured by a film crew during the recording of Half Awake, Half Asleep, in 1973. These are not hi fidelity recordings, but they are the only documentary evidence that survives of these configurations, and Bob has worked wonders with them.

BOB DRAKE: The Legendary Lore of the Holy Wells of England
Bob takes a professional detour to explore an intriguing byway with this atmospheric, uncharacteristic, stripped down, highly intriguing (and I think highly successful) experiment in minimal exposition. There are thirteen chapters – for voices, organ, piano and cathedral – on texts drawn directly from the 1893 edition of The legendary lore of the holy wells of England: including rivers, lakes, fountains and springs, by the English antiquary and inventor of the folding umpire’s chair, Robert Charles Hope. Hallucinatory, educational, intriguing, mysterious and almost certainly efficacious to the elevation of the spirit – not to mention some serious compositional heft. This is a unique musical object and whomsoever likes to take the road less travelled, this was meant for you.DOWNLOAD WHOLE ALBUM:

LUSSIER, RENE: Au Diable Vert
For René Lussier, le diable vert is “a withdrawn place where Nature has kept or regained its rights; a place where you find yourself lost without really knowing when exactly you lost your bearings. I suppose this definition could also apply to my music. I would add a dimension of freedom: the joy of moving forward blindly and holding on until the end of the journey.”
The project started with new compositions for the guitarist’s quintet, with accordion, tuba, two drums and more, featuring Luzio Altobelli, Julie Houle, Robbie Kuster and Marton Maderspach. And then the pandemic struck and nothing went as planned.
Lussier says, “As the months of digital correspondence went by, the lineup changed to include new players: Guillaume Bourque and Alain Trudel. I also invited Koichi Makigami and Takashi Harada with whom the quintet had played in Tokyo, asked my friend Chris Cutler to read me one of his poems on the state of the world, recorded the musicians’ voices the first time we met in the studio in 15 months, my therapist’s and my own voices at our 13th session, the purr of the wandering tomcat coming to ask for kibble, and the bewitching songs of frogs when spring finally this remote place I call home.DOWNLOAD WHOLE ALBUM:
