The first 1000 copies come on coloured vinyl. As a radical jazz artist, Steve Reid played with an extraordinary group of artists Miles Davis, Sun Ra, Fela Kuti, James Brown, Ornette Coleman, Lester Bowie and many more. He began his career as a teenager in the 1960s as a drummer at Motown. Reid was born in the South Bronx and grew up in Queens, New York, three blocks away from John Coltrane. In 1969, Reid refused to enlist to the Vietnam war and was arrested as a conscientious objector and given a four-year prison sentence. On his release in 1974, he formed the Legendary Master Brotherhood and the independent record label, Mustevic Sound, to release his debut LP Nova. At the start of the 21st century, Steve Reid began a successful collaboration with Kieran Hebden (Fourtet), who Reid referred to as his musical soul mate, resulting in a number of joint albums.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soul Jazz Records","offers":[{"title":"Ltd 2021 Red Vinyl Press","offer_id":39455071895614,"sku":null,"price":29.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ltd 2019 Color Vinyl Press","offer_id":39455071928382,"sku":null,"price":29.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/products\/3898013.jpg?v=1592451702"},{"product_id":"the-beths-future-me-hates-me-lp","title":"The Beths - Future Me Hates Me LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e**Ltd Deep Blue Vinyl\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Beths occupy a warm, energetic sonic space between joyful hooks, sun-soaked harmonies, and acerbic lyrics.

Pavement's sole long-player is the stuff of legend, a record so rare that in-the-know vinyl connoisseurs have questioned its very existence. As one of the many vinyl anomalies of the day, Pavement's obscure story is very much about a particular place and time, in this case, the fringes of the multi-cultural London music scene that existed at the tail end of the swinging sixties. According to the liner notes of the original LP, Pavement was formed in 1968 after \"Dexter Pat and John had left their original group,\" and \"Tony and George left theirs to unite with them.\" Then, \"an express letter to Beirut brought Mick, who was playing there at the time.\" We are told that these musicians were \"digging the solid soul sounds\" and \"the exciting rhythms of the Caribbean, ska and reggae,\" and after two months of steady rehearsals, the band \"launched themselves into the rat race of popular music\" in November 1968. They supposedly had so much success as a warm-up act after playing up and down the country in support of various unnamed groups that they were \"soon being booked as top of the bill,\" hence the need for this. Pavement's self-titled debut album was the first LP released by Crystal, the subsidiary of President Records that was established in 1968 by Jack Price, a songwriter and harmonica player that had just replaced Siggy Jackson as label manager at Melodisc Records. Price had his finger in a number of different pies: in addition to promoting Melodisc's ska and reggae catalogue, he was soon to produce the ground-breaking various artists album Rock Steady Hits Of 69 for Fontana with London-based reggae performers, which helped bring Caribbean rhythms into non-specialist music shops for the very first time, and enjoyed the publishing on The Cats' massive \"Swan Lake\" 45, a hugely successful pop-reggae adaptation. Jack also ran a recording studio of his own, reputedly the first London facility with eight-track recording equipment. The original liner notes suggested that we should \"rest assured that there will be more singles and albums to come from this refreshing group\" and that \"this news will please a lot of people.\" Of course, things didn't quite work out that way. This reissue reminds that reggae, soul and other foreign forms were spicing up the London music scene as the 1960s drew to a close.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Radiation Roots (Italy)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39436542541886,"sku":null,"price":23.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/products\/RR350LP_CU.jpg?v=1621297248"},{"product_id":"sly-robbie-master-of-ceremony-dub-lp","title":"Sly \u0026 Robbie - Master of Ceremony “Dub” LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eRadiation Roots present a reissue of Sly \u0026amp; Robbie's Master Of Ceremony Dub.

On their self-titled debut album, Deland’s folk background balances against Ouri’s world of electronic and dance music. Over eight days in a studio, the Montreal-based musicians discovered an innate creative connection, building and bouncing ideas off of one another, developing an intuitive approach to composition and sound. The resulting record, Hildegard, is wholly its own. Eight tracks fuse together into a sonic sphere, named for the eight days spent together. The meeting place sounds something like dusk, or dawn. From this alchemy arises the figure of Hildegard, a woman of science, music, and spirituality. A symbol of nurturing strength, a saint with healing powers. In her 12th century presence, Hildegard wrote prophecies, poems, and treatises; she experienced otherworldly visions and recorded them, passing them down through generations. Deland and Ouri invoke Hildegard as a carrier of the magic they felt working with each other, the separate entity that was born as they blended together.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3337469625\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/track=2602522052\/transparent=true\/\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" seamless=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"section 1","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39463894057022,"sku":null,"price":24.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/products\/a1322480259_16.jpg?v=1622659943"},{"product_id":"chris-thile-laysongs-lp","title":"Chris Thile - Laysongs LP","description":"\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVinyl LP pressing. 2021 release.

As Mndsgn describes it, \"We are beings living this human life that's only going to happen this way once and only once, every moment infused with a magical impermanence, a rarity.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3159054760\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/track=3958502467\/transparent=true\/\" seamless=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stones Throw","offers":[{"title":"Regular Edition","offer_id":39467226038334,"sku":null,"price":19.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ltd Yellow Vinyl Edition","offer_id":39467226071102,"sku":null,"price":21.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ltd Gold Vinyl Edition","offer_id":44514718417183,"sku":null,"price":24.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/products\/a1502240756_16.jpg?v=1622832383"},{"product_id":"mike-cooley-patterson-hood-jason-isbell-live-at-the-shoals-theatre-june-15th-2014-4lp-ltd-translucent-blue-red-vinyl","title":"Mike Cooley, Patterson Hood, \u0026 Jason Isbell - Live at the Shoals Theatre, June 15th, 2014 4LP (Ltd Translucent Blue \u0026 Red Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRecorded live at the Shoals Theatre in Florence, AL on 6\/15\/14\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMike Cooley - Vocals, Guitar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePatterson Hood - Vocals, Guitar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJason Isbell - Vocals, Guitar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecorded by Dennis Crosby for Sweet Tree Productions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMixed by Gena Johnson\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMastered by Pete Lyman\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCover art by Will Johnson\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=213878003\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/track=2887528652\/transparent=true\/\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" seamless=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Southeastern Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39467422548030,"sku":null,"price":54.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/products\/a0043393937_16.jpg?v=1622845498"},{"product_id":"bheki-mseleku-beyond-the-stars-2lp","title":"Bheki Mseleku - Beyond the Stars 2LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"Self-taught multi-instrumentalist and composer Bhekumuzi Hyacinth Mseleku (1955-2008), known as Bheki Mseleku, is widely considered to have been the most richly gifted South African jazz musician of his generation. Born in Durban, he moved to Johannesburg in the mid-1970s and played with groups including Spirits Rejoice, The Drive and Philip Tabane's Malombo. In 1980, he left apartheid South Africa for exile in Europe, travelling with his close friend Eugene Skeef. (A percussionist, educator, poet and former close comrade of Steve Biko, Skeef originally produced the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeyond The Stars\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e session, and contributes liner notes to this release.) Bheki spent six difficult years in Stockholm before moving to London. After a triumphant debut at Ronnie Scott's, in 1992 he would release his now classic debut album Celebration for World Circuit, before signing with Verve. He would go on to achieve worldwide recognition, recording and touring with jazz luminaries including Elvin Jones, Pharoah Sanders, Joe Henderson and Abbey Lincoln. Throughout his life, Bheki struggled with both his physical and mental health. He was, as Eugene Skeef puts it, 'a conduit for the healing energy of music to flow into the world', a gift that came at a cost. At the start of the new century, Bheki returned to live in South Africa, but just a few years later he found himself in compound difficulties: life at home had proved too hard, and he was not well. He had also lost his imported Steinway upright piano in an unwise business deal and had not been able to play. In 2003, Skeef helped him return to London, where they hoped to realign his health and rekindle his career. Through his work with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, Skeef arranged for Bheki to have access to the Steinway concert grand pianos held at Henry Wood Hall. After Bheki had spent a few weeks recuperating, Skeef booked a studio session at Gateway Studios. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeyond The Stars\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e was the result: a stunning, solo piano suite which condenses Mseleku's visionary overstanding of South African music into a flowing, pulsing statement in six parts. With jazzwise echoes of marabi, amahubo, maskanda and Nguni song forms binding it to the deep music of Mseleku's Zulu heritage, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeyond The Stars\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e provides what Blue Note recording artist Nduduzo Makhathini describes in his liner notes as 'a divine summary' of Bheki's life story: 'a sonic pilgrimage from the beautiful and organic landscapes of Durban, to the vibrant energy of London and ultimately toward the inner dimensions of one's being.' But releasing the album proved impossible at the time, and so the session has remained unheard. Bheki sadly passed on in 2008, without having released a new album for five years; almost two decades have now passed since any new music by him has emerged. Working with Eugene Skeef, Tapestry Works is proud to break the silence with a first issue for Bheki Mseleku's visionary masterpiece, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeyond The Stars\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=1448432657\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/track=3747398317\/transparent=true\/\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" seamless=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tapestry Works (UK)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39475383074878,"sku":null,"price":44.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1575\/8523\/products\/TWLP001LP_CU.jpg?v=1623353279"},{"product_id":"ziad-rahbani-bennesbeh-labokra-chou-lp","title":"Ziad Rahbani - Bennesbeh Labokra...Chou?

Written by and starring Rahbani, the play follows the everyday life and problems of a young couple running a cafe in the heart of Beirut.

A choral melisma representative of holy Joy. The dreams of moving through a convoluted space of passages, staircases, open courtyards, rooms just glimpsed past a door. It doesn't seem possible that you can get from one place to the next but according to the logic of the dream you do. I think this has to do with how each little unit of 'content' happens at a different distance from your ear. The holiness of the periphery. That you can catch a shard of history if you only find the right distance to stand from the painting. But prayer is also like the magic language we were talking about -- faith that words do something more than just mean -- they have the capacity to effect change in the world, and not just in the like, 'words change ppl's minds' kind of way, but in that the words themselves actually have agency.

The venue is The Tavern at Hampshire College. The date is March 30, 2001. This was still an early point in Pat's solo journey, but the aesthetic documented here appears to be fully formed, and his playing is great on both harp and guitar. The set is typical of what he was doing around the time his first album came out -- a commingling of covers and originals, most with traditional Anglo flavor, all possessing an easy intimacy. The audience was small in the Tavern that night -- it is not a large room -- but you can feel how every listener present is hanging on every note, every breath.

The more closely you listen to the words and fingers of PG Six, the deeper you sink into the music. His work is not the ideal background noise for strip poker parties. It's glorious darkness and light can only be fully appreciated via active listening. Pat reaches out for rings of karma not to toss them into your face, but to tuck them close to his heart. We catch glimpses of their illumination only in passing. So even though some form of radiance is often the central motif of his music, it is not always easily apprehended. I suppose this legerdemain is the deference the material deserves. Whatever it is Pat does, it sounds pretty damn great here. On a night just over two decades past.

Upon its release, epic laid a romantic melancholy over the gravel and dirt of heartbreak without one honest thought or feeling spared. Her songs covered betrayal, obsession, egotism, and all the other emotions disliked in others and recognize in oneself. Van Etten's grounded and clenched vocals conveyed a sense of hope -- the notion that beauty can arise from the worst of circumstances. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of this special album's release, and to acknowledge the convergence of Van Etten's present and past work, she asked fellow artists she admired to participate in an expanded reissue, where each artist would cover one different song from epic in their own style. Some are musicians Van Etten herself admired in her early days (Fiona Apple, Lucinda Williams, and Aaron Dessner and Justin Vernon of Big Red Machine), some are peers (Courtney Barnett, IDLES), and others are part of a younger generation of innovators (Shamir, St. Panther). What they all share is embodied by epic -- a musician frankly communicating the power of music.

But the band's most potent subsequent cross-pollination was undoubtedly Getting The Fear, formed by The Southern Death Cult rhythm section of Barry Jepson, David 'Buzz' Burrows, and Aki Haq Nawaz Qureshi, joined by Temple Ov Psychic Youth associate Paul 'Bee' Hampshire on vocals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGalvanized by Margaret Thatcher's \"iron fist\" austerity policies and the cultural liberation of punk, the group blazed to creative fruition, quickly landing a lucrative deal with RCA. But immediately after recording their 1984 debut single, Last Salute, a shake-up at the label left them stranded and without support. Rather than stall in music industry purgatory they chose to dissolve, escaping their restrictive contract.

Death Is Bigger: 1984-1985 rectifies history's error, collecting the group's entire vault of demos and unreleased songs alongside liner notes and a photo gallery capturing Getting The Fear in all their high libertine glory. The compilation's 10 tracks are alternately brooding, spiky, and sneering, fixated on dreams, sex, and Charles Manson (the sleeve of Last Salute famously features a detail from Manson's embroidered waistcoat, unbeknownst to label execs). Razor wire guitars slice across tense rhythms, veering between minimal and melodic, occasionally flowering into psychedelic poetry, revealing Bee's deep affinity with Psychic TV. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTaken as a whole, the album showcases the breadth of forking paths facing UK post-punk in 1984: pop eating itself, new wave while still new, transgression as alternative not affectation.
