Title:	No New York
Label:	LILITH (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)
Format:	CD
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	LR 102CD

One of the records that becomes more & more definitive with each passing decade, never before reissued "legitimately" until now. Now? Well, this one is licensed from Universal Music Plc., Russia -- a company that does seems to exist -- you tell me. Probably no-noised from vinyl, but sounding acceptable. This record is simply -- IT. "One of the brightest and most famous projects of the entire punk/new wave scene, No New York was released in 1978 on Island's sub-label Antilles and became a total cult in the indie scene. Featuring some of the most incredible rule breaking bands of the underground New York art and music scene, the project -- strongly pursued by Brian Eno -- is a genuine snapshot of the massively creative NYC scene, from which innumerable trends started and became part of the modern pop music as we know it. Influential, powerful and ground breaking, this collection features four of the top icon shattering Gotham City no-wavers like James Chance (Contortions), Arto Lindsay and Ikue Mori (DNA), Lydia Lunch (Teenage Jesus) and Sumner Crane (Mars). If you missed the original it's time to get your hands on this reissue. The CD digipack version includes a detailed booklet." Booklet contains lyrics to all songs, in Cyrillic and English.

Title:	Come My Way
Label:	LILITH (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)
Format:	CD
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	LR 104CD

"In 1965 Marianne Faithful released two debut albums simultaneously, a self-titled pop album and an album called Come My Way comprised somewhat unexpectedly of folk tunes. While the first album generally reaffirmed her persona as she-devil and soulless poster child of that hedonistic generation, the latter gave listeners a fleeting glimpse of a hidden darker side, perhaps an unintentional foretelling of those black days that would soon follow. This reissue, available briefly in the UK and Japan, features four bonus tracks: her classic 1969 single 'Sister Morphine,' released prior to the Rolling Stones' version, the 1964 B-side 'Blowin' in the Wind,' 'Et Maintenant,' from a 1965 EP and the 1966 B-side 'That's Right Baby'."

Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	LR 105CD

"Although probably best known for her implication in the 1976 shooting death of her boyfriend Olympic skier Spider Sabich, this sexy French chanteuse / overall swingin' chick released a string of sophisticated pop albums in the late sixties while married to long forgotten Vegas crooner / TV star Andy Williams. Claudine's albums have long been cult favorites among fans of the genre and Colours, Longet's fourth album, originally released in 1969 by A&M, is probably also her best. Featuring breathy versions of songs by Donovan, The Everly Brothers, Joni Mitchell, The Beatles, Gordon Lightfoot, and Randy Newman."

Title:	The Moonstone
Label:	LILITH (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)
Format:	CD
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	LR 106CD

Russian reissue of this 1969 MGM album. "Hunky Blues Project singer Tommy Flanders dropped out of the NYC band after their 1966 debut, probably to the joy of his management & Verve marketers. A few years & zero-interest singles later, his first & only solo LP shattered any commercial notions his handlers had. Flanders shed the R&B/Blues-covers hat for one that wouldn't be out of place on Robin Williamson's head. Moonstone, which appeared & disappeared in '69, doesn't quite have the din of most career-suicide records, but the trick was turned none the less. A dusted, laid-back folk affair from the start, Flanders thumbed a ride back to New England that left him a brokenhearted troubadour at the tree-line of the spirit world. Tommy vibes his way to a cross between a low-key, slightly fey take on Gene Clark/Kristofferson on-the-road coke-folk & later flowery, private-press freedom. A singer at heart, Flanders rounds out his studio group with the great guitarist Bruce 'Mr. Tambourine Man' Langhorne, who fills this album's sound up to near forgotten-classic status. Never-were heavies "Purple and Blue" & "The Moonstone" will pay for themselves on this flower for Dylan that's not quite Red Hash, but not quite James Taylor either." -- Kris Price.

Artist:	BLACK MERDA
Title:	Black Merda
Label:	LILITH (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)
Format:	CD
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	LR 111CD

"Hailing from late-'60s Detroit, Black Merda (pronounced "Murder") were both aesthetically and musically way ahead of their time. When most black groups (including Parliament/ Funkadelic) were still sporting suits, singing about love and using a horn section, Black Merda had already become a tight guitar-heavy freak-funk four piece. By weaving guitar rock and psychedelia into soul and R&B they were the gods of the underground 'black rock' movement which fell somewhere between Jimi Hendrix and Parliament and MC5. But it wasn't just about the music, the message was just as important. As with the original release, features a 30-second 11th track not mentioned in the track listing on the outer sleeve but present on the album."

Artist:	RHODES, EMITT
Title:	The American Dream
Label:	LILITH (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)
Format:	CD
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	LR 112CD

"In 1971, Billboard magazine called him 'one of the finest artists on the music scene today' and later referred to his debut as one of the 'best albums of the decade.' Although his brief flirtation with stardom quickly evaporated, his music is still considered 'essential listening' by '70s rock aficionados and pop fans, particularly his critically-acclaimed self-titled magnum opus, which climbed to the top of the charts in the U.S., and American Dream. Often called 'Paul McCartney's musical twin,' his influence can definitely be felt here, particularly on songs like 'Mother Earth' and 'Holly Park.' But Emitt was no McCartney copy cat, he was simply a musical genius of the same caliber, exploring pop music in the same direction. Unlike his self-titled debut, which features Rhodes playing and recording every instrument, this features session musicians and a few old tracks from his previous band Merry Go Round, like the fine 'You're A Lovely Woman.'"

Artist:	HARMONIA
Title:	Musik Von Harmonia
Label:	LILITH (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)
Format:	CD
Price:	$20.00
Catalog #:	LR 119CD

"Once called 'the world's most important rock group' by Brian Eno, legendary minimalist avant-garde band Harmonia was formed in the early '70s by Michael Rother of Neu! and Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius of Cluster. Although this supergroup produced only two studio albums -- 1974's Musik von Harmonia and 1975's De luxe -- they were very influential and perfectly embodied the Krautrock ideal. While leaning slightly towards Cluster's ambient sound, they were also entirely their own entity -- a jet engine running clean and precise but also spouting asphyxiating aural exhaust."

Title:	Bluesmith
Label:	LILITH (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)

Catalog #:	LR 120CD

"Jazz organist Jimmy Smith popularized the use of Hammond organ in jazz music and is credited with having invented the soul jazz style. Many of his albums are classics and his influence is omnipresent in the jazz world. For this stellar 1972 release on Verve, the Organ Grinder accompanied by Leroy Vinnegar, Teddy Edwards, Ray Crawford, Donald Dean and Victor Pantoja comes home to where it all began: the blues. These high spirited and relaxed sessions give each musician the chance to stretch out over a tantalizingly funky blues that features five Smith originals along with Harvey Siders' 'Mournin' Wes,' a tribute to friend and fellow musician Wes Montgomery."

Title:	Three Imaginary Boys
Label:	LILITH (RUSSIAN FEDERATION)
Format:	LP
Price:	$22.00
Catalog #:	LR 130LP

"The undisputed leaders of the early gothic scene, and a seminal band that contributed to the rise of British post-punk, the Cure recorded their debut album Three Imaginary Boys at London's Morgan Studios and released it on May 8, 1979. After touring for almost all of 1977, the band changed their name to The Cure and rearranged their line-up with the sacking of Porl Thompson, giving birth to an unusual power trio. This line-up lasted only for their first album, making it unique in its essentially minimal sound. The year was now 1978, and the three (imaginary?) boys soon signed to Chris Parry's Fiction Label. What you hold in your hands is the faithful re-release of the original UK pressing. After this issue, the album was released in the US with a different title (Boys Don't Cry -- from one of the band's best selling singles) and a slightly different track listing."

Then in 1954, blues legend Muddy Waters famously offered him a spot in his band and Cotton went on to play with Muddy for 12 years. His first record as bandleader, however, was not released until 1967, on Verve. Pure Cotton, also on Verve, was released the following year and here Cotton, age 33, finally gets a chance to stretch out and be himself (meaning, he gets down and dirty and plays that harp like his ass was on fire, sometimes even blowing the keys out of the instrument)!"

"Often referred to as 'Brazil's unofficial poet laureate' and the 'Bob Dylan of Brazil,' this heavy-weight of Brazilian music was also a young revolutionary who used his music to protest against Brazil's oppressive military regime. This protest music, which became known as Tropicalia, first earned Veloso a stint in jail, but by the time this dour album was released in 1971, it had placed him in exile in the UK. Veloso's extreme bitterness and melancholy can be heard on every groove of this album, but don't let the album's gloomy atmosphere stop you from buying it; it is dripping with some of the best moments of saudade in the history of Brazilian music."

To be fair to his many fans, it was a stark departure from his previous releases, which were decidedly more pop, but Veloso had been through a lot recently, having just returned from political exile in the UK, so it is no wonder that the artist was feeling a bit like he needed to fly in the face of conformity. In Veloso's own words, 'I made this album without thinking, without taking the time to stop to think.' He refers to the album's 'insolent experimentalism' and calls it a kind of 'last stand.'"

Catalog #:	LR 143LP

"By the time this album was released, Antonio Carlos Jobim was already an international superstar. Having recently won a Grammy (1965) for 'The Girl From Ipanema,' by 1967 all the big name stars from up north were breaking down his door to work with the new 'Gershwin of Brazil.' In fact, Jobim had just finished working on an album with Frank Sinatra when he went into the studio to record this album. Recorded in 1967, Wave is actually one of the lesser known masterpieces of Brazilian music, and undoubtedly one of Jobim's greatest. Here Jobim and the great Claus Ogerman lead a top-flight cast on hidden classics like 'Batidinha,' 'Triste' and 'Wave.'"

"Although Veloso had already been thrown in jail once for his criticism of Brazil's military regime, he continued to speak out against it on his second album (1969) with tracks like 'Irene' (about a machine-gun-toting outlaw celebrated by the Left). No wonder he would soon find himself in political exile in the UK. The general tone of the album keeps with its dire message -- Veloso felt it was important for his voice of protest to be heard around the world. If he was a high-profile public figure, he felt that he would be safer. All this and the man still managed to make excellent records!"

Although unlike The Supremes, led by the breathy and demure Diana Ross, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas had a stronger, more soulful sound, which made top ten hits into Holland-Dozier-Holland creations like '(Love Is Like A) Heat Wave,' 'Nowhere To Run,' 'Honey Chile' and their anthem 'Dancing In The Street.' This classic 1965 release is one of their best full-length albums because not only does it feature the hits, but true to its title, it is also packed with Motown dance standards of the day like 'Mickey's Monkey,' 'Hitch Hike' and 'The Jerk.'

"Originally released on Trojan in 1974, it was essentially a re-release of the Soul Rebels LP from 1970, with a few extra tracks. This historic release marked Bob Marley & the Wailers' first collaboration with Lee Perry and the true beginning of their musical and spiritual commitment to Rastafari. Lee Perry's production genius had a profound impact on the genre and many fans argue that this collaboration resulted in some of the band's best music. This is Bob Marley and the original Wailers (Peter Tosh & Bunny Wailer) long before they became international reggae superstars with Island. The tracks found here redefined reggae music, and although they were later re-recorded by Bob Marley, tracks like 'Soul Rebel,' 'Duppy Conqueror,' 'Small Axe' and their version of James Brown's 'Try Me' never sounded better. Also featuring 3 bonus tracks: 'Lively Up Yourself,' 'Trench Town Rock' and 'African Herbsman.'"

180 gram vinyl, gatefold sleeve. "We are happy to announce the release that we have all been waiting for: Claudine's last album, Sugar Me, previously only released in Japan on CD, now on vinyl! The Sugar Me album has a long history. It originally should have been released as Claudine's third album for Andy Williams' Barnaby Records label in 1974, but it was shelved, due to Claudine's waning popularity as a singer. Her first two albums, released on Barnaby at the beginning of 70s, were perfect examples of easy listening pop music, but did not sell in the age of rock music. A small independent label, Century Records, reissued these two albums in 1993, and a few other tracks were discovered. The original master tapes of the album unfortunately were lost, but the missing tracks were replaced by some previously unreleased tracks and some unfinished studio outtakes that were discovered in the Barnaby archives. The track list is the same as the CD version, but the vinyl release will have 2 bonus tracks from her 1971 single 'Canta En Espanol,' placed at the end of each side. These two tracks were newly mastered and sound significantly better (and are even a bit longer) than on a previous release. Please note that there will be no CD version this time -- only vinyl.

"Yes were formed in summer of 1968 in London by vocalist Jon Anderson and bassist Chris Squire, and with the addition of guitarist Peter Banks, drummer Bill Bruford and organist Tony Kay, the band became Yes. Their eponymous debut was released the following year, and the vocal harmonies of Anderson and Squire and early progressive sound made them an immediate success. In 1970 the band released their second album, the somewhat less successful A Time And A Word, backed by a full orchestra. During this period the band also made a number of live appearances for BBC radio where, given the freedom of a less formal setting, the performances have a more spontaneous, less structured sound than on many of their studio recordings from the same period. Although most Yes fans would cite the early seventies as the band's most classic period, these early recordings give listeners a glimpse of what led up to that classic sound that so defined the progressive era and is the only live release to feature the original Yes line-up. Also featuring liner notes by guitarist Peter Banks who over saw the original 1998 release of these recordings. Includes an amazing version of 'Every Little Thing' plus dramatic cover versions of the Beatles and Stephen Stills, and the rare Yes original -- and previously unreleased -- 'For Everyone.'"

While the band's debut album, 1971's Cottonwoodhill, was a heavily acid-laden affair dominated by droning organ, disturbing vocals and a collection of cacophonic sound effects (causing it to carry a warning label and be banned in several countries) for their second effort, band-founder Jo�l Vandroogenbroeck brought in a completely new line-up and changed the band's sound dramatically. While Psychonaut still takes listeners into the realm of altered consciousness -- making heavy use of a droning Hammond, sitar, tablas, etc.-- this time the vocals are more melodic and the music itself is more song-oriented. This is by far Brainticket's most accessible album, and perhaps their most timeless. Fully remastered from the original master tapes!"

"When Chrome first came on the SF punk scene in the late seventies, they were called 'acid punk', due to their penchant for both, but also because their music came from a 'far-out' place -- a place most people could only get to while in a drug-altered state. The sci-fi obsessed Creed and Edge, however, claimed to channel their music directly from the beyond, and when 1979's groundbreaking Half Machine Lip Moves was released -- an angular and metallic sounding album interspersed with electric violin, apocalyptic tape loops, moog, atonal droning distorted guitar and a wall of metallic sounding percussion -- it certainly sounded that way. For the next five years Creed and Edge were a force to be reckoned with, laying the groundwork for the industrial music scene and directly influencing almost every guitar-toting punk ever since.

"Humans are the cancer of the planet...all people have untapped psychic powers...acid is good...aliens exist...these are just some of the ideas that the pioneering San Francisco band Chrome was grappling with in its music, labeled 'acid punk' by the press in a desperate attempt to categorize them. Comparing them to everyone from Pere Ubu, to the Residents, to Devo, to Can, to Eno, the reality was that no one knew really knew where they fit in...perhaps because they really were channeling their music from some distant alien planet. In fact, Chrome's founder, Damon Edge, described himself as having something he called 'clairaudient syndrome', a condition that allows you to 'hear something before it happens'...meaning that he would first hear the music in his head, and then 'channel' it onto tape.... and perhaps that explains the music in this LP. For Chrome aficionados this album is more ambient and droning than previous albums, except for the Devo-esque 'Electric Chair'- and one wonders if they didn't write this song to poke fun at the band. Featuring three bonus tracks: 'In A Dream' and 'Danger Zone' both taken from their 1981 12" Inworlds single... and 'Informations', taken from the b-side of their rare New Age 7" released in 1980."

This new rhythm section can definitely be heard, making Chrome a bit more 'danceable' if you will and the first inklings of that driving industrial metal beat can be heard. Tracks like excellent 'Perfumed Metal' are a perfect example of this transformation. It was also in 1981 that Chrome received an offer to perform live in Italy from a group of Italian fans. Chrome had never appeared live before, but unbelievably they accepted the Italian gig and flew to Bologna, Italy to play their first ever live concert.

"One of those rare amazing bands that never became the superstars they were meant to be only because they were not from the US or the UK. In fact, they were from that other musical powerhouse, Brazil, which had not yet been fully recognized as such. In line with the avant-garde movement Tropicalia, from 1968 to 1972 Os Mutantes recorded five brilliant albums drawing from traditional Brazilian music, psychedelia, 60s rock, and fusing it together into the top-secret hydrogen bomb of a new breed of rock & roll that went on to far surpass the bands they were trying so hard to match. And then they disappeared without a trace (until their reunion in 2006), except for their name appearing every now and again as a major influence on this or that famous rock star (Kurt Cobain begged them to do a reunion tour in 1993). This box collects their first three (and best) albums: Os Mutantes, Mutantes and A Divina Comedia ou Ando Meio Desligado, which have gone down in history as some of the best Brazilian music of all time."
