JAPAN
Obscure Alternatives
1978 Canada pressing

This was the last of Japan as “glam #newwave band”, as they started to enter Phase 2 of their career.

Sylvian is experimenting with vocal style here, & when you get to the closer “The Tenant”, you hear the Japan we think of now, from Quiet Life on.
The “more #art less rock” Japan.

I love this album though.
“Rhodesia” has a total #reggae vibe, and the two ‘singles’ are really good.

Il y a 46 ans, le 30 mars 1979, sortait 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗮𝘆𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁, le deuxième album de 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗲. Un disque qui m’a marquée, profondément.
J’avais déjà adoré 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲, leur premier. Mais ici, 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗲 va encore plus loin.

1975 U.S. pressing

This is another record from my collection that I have my old upstairs neighbor in Brooklyn to thank for.

A very smooth #fusion record with a touch of Latin flair.

It’s a safe assumption that Ernie has long passed, since he was in his late sixties when we last saw each other in 2001, but you never know.

There’s lots in my collection he introduced me to.
Thank you, Ernie, wherever you are.

Imagine 70s rock-slash-soul meeting traditional Turkish music: that’s Derya Yıldırım & Grup Şimşek in a nutshell. Their new album “Yarın Yoksa”, released two weeks ago on 14 March, is so much more than just the novelty aspect of the unique combination of influences, though! Won’t say more, rather just recommend listening:

BRENDAN DOYLE
Musical Mystical Bear
1972 U.S. pressing

Last spin of the night; a musical companion to a book by Michael Fox (a priest and theologian), about “the joys, hopes and sorrows of living a free life in contemporary America”.

It’s a breezy, folky, sometimes #psychedelic record, with very good songs. There was another version of this record with a COLOR cover.

It’s a very #70s album, but with some left-over haze from the hippie generation.
