Sacrées sorties ce mois-ci :

"The first ever recordings of Fred McDowell! Recorded by Alan Lomax in 1959. The first vinyl release dedicated entirely to this phenomenal recording session. 12 songs that highlight the depth of his repertoire - from droning & hypnotic versions of songs that later became blues standards such as 'Shake Em On Down' & 'Good Morning Little Schoolgirl' to his deeply felt renditions of spirituals like 'Keep Your Lamp Trimmed & Burning' . Accompanied at times by some amazing hair comb playing & beautiful backup vocals. Comes in an old school 'tip on' sleeve with liner notes by Nathan Salsburg. A co-release with our friends Domino Sound. The stuff of dreams."

"Compilation of 78's by the master of Indian classical vocal music. First U.S release dedicated to his work. Heavy & spiritual austere performances of 10 ragas. Not easy listening by any means but ultimately very rewarding. Comes in an old school 'tip on' cover. Includes a 12 page booklet with many archival photographs & notes by Ian Nagoski."

"Reissued for the first time, the legendary Malian Rail Band's classic 1970 debut LP. Based out of the Buffet Bar of the Station Hotel in Bamako, the band was sponsored by the Ministry of Information. Swirling Afro-Latin guitars & horns. Malian folk songs modernized & played by some of the country's finest musicians including Tidani Kone & Salif Keita."

"Dead Moon's 2nd LP. Great pop ballads sit side by side with heavy rock songs. A hit laden record featuring classics such as 'Dead Moon Night', 'A Miss Of You', '54/40 or Fight', 'Time Has Come Today', 'Demona', & 'On My Own'. Originally released in 1989, easily one of the top 4 rock records of all time. Remastered from the original tapes."

"Dead Moon's 3rd LP from 1990. Another classic with hits such as 'Not The Only One', Crystal Is Falling', 'Dagger Moon', 'Walking On My Grave', 'Johnny's Got A Gun' & 'Unknown Passage'. A perfect record, not for the faint of heart. Remastered from the original tapes."
