Automatic man
This album took me about two weeks to realize how good it was. Lots of late nights,,,but now i love it.
The drummer from automatic man, Michael Shrieve is best known as the drummer in an early line-up of Carlos Santana's band Santana and for his performance at the 1969 Woodstock festival when he was 20 years old (Turning 20 on July 6th). He was the youngest musician to perform at The Woodstock Festival. He left the original Santana Band to pursue solo projects. One little known but worthy effort was his drumming in the 1976 release of Automatic Man with guitarist Pat Thrall.
He also played in the band Hagar Schon Aaronson Shrieve (with Sammy Hagar, Neal Schon, and Kenny Aaronson).
He also played drums on former Supertramp member Roger Hodgson's first solo album In the Eye of the Storm.
From 1979 to 1984, he collaborated as a percussionist in Richard Wahnfried, a side project of Klaus Schulze (another drummer turned electronic composer) while recording with Schulze his own first "solo" album of electronic music, Transfer Station Blue in 1984.
He has also collaborated with David Beal, Andy Summers, Steve Roach, Stomu Yamash'ta, Jonas Hellborg, Buckethead, and others.
In 2001, he appeared on the Revolution Void album Increase the Dosage.
He currently lives in Seattle, Washington and plays in Fusion Jazz group at ToST in Fremont, Seattle with Danny Godinez, Joe Doria, John Fricke, and Farko Dosumov.

----------------------------------
Förra veckan blev Parlour #1 "record of the week" på picadilly records. Och vi är så stolta. Det e fina grejer i vår värld. Dessutom vet vi ju vilken låt de har gjort editen på. Svenskt och otroligt smörigt....
The Swedes bring us another lovely piece of Balearica on this new 7" from Parlour No1. I have tried to ID the tracks, but no one has a clue what they are. However, judging by the speed this has flown out, you lot aren't that bothered to know. I would urge you to be quick, I think there are more on order, but it may be gone by Friday...
Another mysterious Swedish package turned up out of the blue! Remember the Cos / Mes 7"? Well, this is a similar thing, in style at least. Allegedly, these are two edits though I don't know either of 'em (cue emails). Side-A "Amor" is no doubt a humongous Balearic rock number, puts me in mind of Chris Rea, Simple Minds and A Mountain Of One. Side-B has "Capriccio" this time on an oddball disco tip, wonky funky bassline, Linn drums, spangly guitars in there too, it's got it all. Really cute little 7" and I doubt it'll be round for long.

TGIF
My mother hates the Monkees. She thinks they are super fake. And yes, I can understand her. She liked the kinks, beatles, stones and the who, and the monkees were just a 60's backstreet boys, or hannah montana who ever that is. Me on the other hand weren't alive in the 60's so I don't care as much. Anyhow. Their film "Head" is awesome, and today we give you the intro and theme song. I do love this part of the film. And the film Head is actually really nice. Directed by a young Jack nicolson, cameos by, frank zappa among others.

Time
I've wasted a lot of money and I've wasted a lot of time. This one is no waste of time. A Chamber brothers classic, that you can hear both in a fancy department store or at the coolest clubs.

Electric
Eddy grant seriously have some nice beats. Most of the time he fucks it up with melody and song. In this case I do think it works. Just some good old plastic reggae for the summer.

Hippies
We do like hippies. They both look funny and have geat taste in music. So here is a torrent for download. Here is some info about the documentary:
“The Hippie movement was the most controversial and influential of modern times. Free love, the peace movement, drugs, Eastern religions and communes are explored. Meet the figures whose words and actions inspired it and destroyed it. See how the vibrations from that era are still resonating today in almost every aspect of American life, from the clothes we wear, to the Personal Computer and the Internet. Finally, historic footage, stills and period graphics are interwoven with expert commentary and eyewitness testimony.”
Download it here
Have a nice weekend!

Lars Gullin
Here's a little thing on legendary swedish jazz sax player Lars Gullin. This is a live recordings in memory of his 80:th birthday that should be soon. The recordings are from swedish radio P2.
Listen here
And for more info check here (in swedish)
“ Lars Gullin var den förste musiker efter Django Reinhardt som gjorde intryck I USA utan att flytta dit. Gullin har aldrig blivit duplicerad eller överträffad. Hans ledighet och avspändhet, speciellt på 50-talet fick barytonsaxen att kännas som en finkänsligt hanterad tenorsax. Men hans tonbildning var så lätt och ren att den mindre påminde om en tenor än om altsaxofonisten Lee Konitz…..”
Musikerkollegan och trumpetaren Chet Baker utryckte det så här: ” Den ende barytonsaxofonist jag kände till var Gerry Mulligan. När jag hörde Lars tänkte jag – Jesus det finns ett annat sätt att spela baryton! Lars spelade med mycket mer glöd och i vissa avseenden med större auktoritet än Gerry.” Legendariske jazzskribenten Leonard Feather:“ Om han (Lars Gullin) någonsin bestämmer sig för att emigrera till det här landet (USA), skulle jag lägga till at than kommer att skrämma en massa människor, göra en massa skivor och få en massa anhängare”

Four tops
Four tops was the first soul group i really got into. Found some records in my parents collection and that started my vinyl addiction, big time. I still think this is great stuff and sometimes i feel a bit sad that my soul records isn't played as much as they deserve. But I'm in a different world is the track that is going to be played at my funeral. No doubt about it.
God bless the four tops!
Up the ladder
supreme supreme track. Just felt like a bit of soul today. And this is one of my favourite supremes tracks.
I wanna suck your......
I love this track. So cheesy but still good.The, I wanna suck your....ohhhhhhh kicks ass. And it works great on dance floors. On the 12" there's a different version on the flipside that is a bit more punk funkish with less song. Don't know whitch one i prefer.

Swedish Progg
Here are some tracks from swedish prog bands that were quite big here in sweden. Political, some of them, some not as much. But great music anyway. On top of that we put up a torrent for a swedish documentary on Progg. It's in swedish and from 2001 I think. Very good stuff. And even if you don't understad swedish there are plenty of music clips.
Torrent can be downloaded here

Nurnberg47
A spoof band from a cult swedish movie called "G". Originally called the band was called reperbahn. Great track anyhow. Very simple minds. The title "hundrana brinner" would be the dogs are on fire translated.

Finlands sak är vår
Some finnish old tango for the friday afternoon. It's very strange that they are so into Tango in Finland. And that they have their own finnish version of it. Very far from Argentina. But anyhow. I love this stuff and I would love to get a band for our next party.
