    Ars Nova ~ 1968 ~ Ars Nova
    genre: psych, prog

    quality: lossless (flac separate, alien lp covers)
    time: 34'46"  size: 239 mb
    misc.: 2004 Sun


    Fuzz Acid & Flowers:

    "In a sometimes almost desperate search to elevate the standard of rock, many groups shared the desire to marry their music with classical compositions. Ars Nova succeed better than most in making a convincing attempt, since their brand of cross-over incorporates not only baroque instrumentation in a psychedelic environment, but also baroque composition techniques as fugas, chorales and pavanes, often scored for brass and guitar. On their first album, produced by Paul Rothschild and Arthur Gorson, they also write lovely tunes and the whole album does, surprisingly enough, not become as pretentious as it could have been, the name of the band notwithstanding. Two of the tracks even get covered (Fields Of People by The Move and I Wrapped Her ln Ribbons by Galliard, both U.K. bands!). Other highlights include March Of The Mad Duke's Circus, with vaguely renaissance-like harmonies and General Clover Ends A War, a bitter and driven satire on military affairs. Most tracks were penned by Wyatt Day, sometimes helped by Jon Pierson. Greg Copeland, a young songwriter also working with Steve Noonan and Jackson Browne, wrote the lyrics of four songs.

    The formation changed after the first album and among the departing members, Maury Baker went on to play on Tim Buckley'sStarsailorJanis Joplin's Kosmic Blues and Augie Meyer's Head Music albums. Bill Folwell guested on the second Insect Trust album and Jonathan Raskin appeared on Tom Rush's Circle Game.

    Wayne Fontana and The Mindbenders ~ 1964 ~ Wayne Fontana and The Mindbenders + 1965 ~ It's Wayne
    genre: beat
    country: uk

    time: 1:16'18"  size: 295 mb
    misc.: 2001
     
    Tapestry of Delights:
    Wayne Fontana (whose real name was Glyn Ellis) formed his first outfit, The Jets, a semi-professional combo that worked the Manchester club circuit, whilst working as a telephone engineer. Prior to this he'd played in a school skiffle group, The Velfins. Their first break came when this rough and ready group were spotted playing at Manchester's Oasis Club by Fontana Records talent scout Jack Baverstock. However, at the sound check only Wayne and drummer Rick Rothwell had shown up and they'd had to frantically recruit a couple of substitutes, bassist Robert Land and guitarist Eric Stewart, to complete the band. Basically, the band were competent musicians though a little short on imagination. Fontana decided to name his new backing group The Mindbenders after a psychological horror movie playing at his local cinema.
    Predictably they made their vinyl debut with a series of cover versions. First off was their revival of Fats Domino's Hello Josephine, which scraped into the lower reaches of the Top 50. Their next two discs, For You, For You and Little Darlin', failed to capitalise on their limited early success, and it wasn't until their cover of Ben E. King's Stop Look And Listen that they enjoyed some further modest Chart success.

    Fuzz Acid & Flowers:

    This Seattle outfit included Dangel from The Wailers and Johnansen later went onto play with Little Bill and the Blue Notes. Their album is guitar oriented and largely blues-based. It lacks consistency, but their medley of Eight Miles High/Paint It Black shows them at their most inventive. Liberty included the best track Don't Mean A Thing on their compilation album Son Of Gutbucket and it can also be found on Nuggets, Vol. 8. ~ (Vernon Joynson / Tom Whiting / Stephane Rebeschini)
