... Featuring Judee Sill. "Singer/songwriter Tommy Peltier started in the 1960s as a trumpet player, releasing LPs with Roland Kirk under the name The Jazz Corps. In 1970, Tommy switched to guitar and vocals and formed a close friendship with Judee Sill that would last throughout her life. With an acid folk sound not unlike Tom Rapp & Pearls Before Swine, these early 1970s recordings with Judee are released for the first time. Besides Judee Sill on vocals, guitar, and keyboards, the CD also features Lynn Blessing and Wolfgang Melz of the Gabor Szabo Quintet and Dave Parlato of Frank Zappa's Sleep Dirt LP. This enhanced CD also includes a video from 1973 of Peltier, Sill, and others performing in a television studio."

"The Fillmore West meets Superfly when psychedelic jazz-rock groovers Mushroom join blues/punk powerhouse vocalist Gary Floyd (Sister Double Happiness) to explore twisted soulful space-rock songs by Curtis Mayfield, Leon Russell, The Who, Steppenwolf, Clarence Carter, Joe Cocker, Spencer Davis Group & Spirit. Snake guitars, tribal percussion, swamp piano, Memphis horns, foxy backing vocals, & cosmic sounds fueled by Floyd's dynamic belting ability makes for an incomparable return of The Pusherman and a time when even the Beatles had beards."

"Imagine Roland Kirk, Capt. Beefhart, & Dan Hicks getting together for a 1970's jam with Brian Eno producing. Here's the 3rd solo album from a multi-instrumentalist/horn player who has spent the better part of the last 2 decades criss-crossing the world, on stage and in studios with the likes of Tom Waits, William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, B-52's, Marc Ribot, Bill Laswell, Hal Wilner, Pere Ubu's David Thomas, Elvis Costello, Tipsy, Galaxie 500, Daevid Allen of Gong, Jonathan Richman, and contributor to movie soundtracks of David Lynch & Jim Jarmusch. File under: jazz, pop, hot licks, and weird soundtracks -- like a serenade from a cuckoo."
