1993 CD release, available again! "Nurse With Wound fans might recognize this Frenchman's name from various NWW releases stretching back to 1981's Ostranenie 1913. This CD selects highlights from his career all the way back from avant-rockabilly stuff in 1971 through performances from 1992. 'Rock 'N Roll Station' (done most recently by Nurse With Wound from the album of the same name in 1994) appears here in the original from 1976's album Paralleles LP. The rest of the music included is 50s car-chase movie rock music and a screechy jazzy influenced tape cut-up Dada stream of consciousness random hodgepodge of twenty years. Instruments and sounds include toy xylophones, accordions, your standard rock instruments as well as some French spoken excerpts, English interviews and an Asian porn hot and tender enough to drive your libido insane (all I could think about was 'boy, that girl was well-mic'd). Berrocal has had quite an influence on some of the noisemakers we have grown to love and collect and this disc is a great discovery point. Appearances by Pascal Comelade, Vince Taylor, Jean Francoise Pauvros, Steven Stapleton, Jonathan Kane."

Catalog #:	MEGA 020

1993 reissue, available again! Reissue of both records by this sorta legendary Swedish rock trio led by Michael Maksymenko, as originally issued in 1980-81. Heavily influenced by the convoluted blues of prime-era Beefheart Magic Band, these guys played a fairly unbelievable variation on the style -- intense, full throttle guitar/bass/drum interplay with absolutely crazed Swedish vocals on top. Beefheart fanatics use to fall face flat when hearing this stuff back when it came out, and I'm sure there's a whole slew of newcomers ready for the same gust of Nordic madness. Guitarist Maksymenko went on to work with Henry Kaiser in the later 80s, forming the band Crazy Backwards Alphabet (along with Magic Band drummer Drumbo French). These recordings have been legitimately "weird" -- every single day, for 25 years now!

"Sejayno invites you to go skinny dipping with them in the middle of the night. The river will take you to a murky lake in a canyon with an undercurrent that will suck you down to an underwater cave where you will be taken in by a primitive magical tribe of Italians that will chant 'a-hay! a-hay! a-hay!' & perform for you with their invented electronic instruments while you are fed hallucinogenic cave mushrooms that fill your head with images of ruined cities, cavernous horn solos & radio transmissions of Civil War soldier bands. Peter Blasser (Baltimore, MD) Severiano Martinez (Oakland, CA) & Carson Garhart (Baltimore, MD). Peter Blasser, also known as Peter B, invents & hand constructs electronic instruments that stretch the possibilities of what an electronic instrument can be."
