Notes
"This collection was culled from over 150 ravaged cassettes found in Oakland, California at the public library's Asian branch. Most of the tracks were recorded post-Pol Pot holocaust between the 1970s and 1990s in Khmer-operated studios spread throughout the geography of the diaspora-from Cambodia and Thailand to Massachusetts, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Long Beach & Stockton (California) and points inbetween. Tracks 4, 5, 8, 11, 12 and 20 were recorded in Cambodia between the mid-1960s and early 1970s. Tracks are notated where possible."

Siamese Soul

    Thai pop history has been largely ignored and neglected by the international musical community for far too long. By the late 20th century, Thai pop music had developed as many faces as localized roots music such as Molam or styles like Luk Thung or Luk Krung, (each with their own respective pop-sectors). Bangkok – always the hub of the Thai recording industry – attracted musicians and singers from across the country that were both informed by tradition and inspired by the wealth of international sounds entering the region via radio and phonograph. Jazz, for instance, had a profound influence on early Thai pop music, the King of Thailand himself being a noted Jazz composer.

    This superb collection features modern Thai music styles combining with elements of surf, rock, funk, disco and comedy, revealing the use of clever instrumentation, brilliant vocals, great arrangements, twisted breaks, and resourceful production techniques. Discover the Queen of Luk Thung, the 1960s “Shadow Music” sound, classic tracks from Thai films, blazing examples of Bangkok disco from the 1970s, legendary Thai comedy Pop, and the most outrageous version of "The Night Chicago Died" you'll ever encounter. Thick horn sections, wah-wah guitars, tight drums, and funky organs help round out this astounding set which proves beyond a doubt that the Thai were a completely unique and powerful force during the 1960's, 70's & 80's global popular music explosion.

Accept

Hisa – guitar, bass; vocals; programming
With:
Izu – vocals (1, 2)

Prolusion. ACCEPT, not to be confused with the legendary German heavy metal band of the same name, is a Japanese outfit. The information of the homepage indicates that this is mostly a solo work by Hisa, and that “Silver Moon” is the debut release by this project. The work on this album started in 1990, and in 2007 it was released on Vital Records, a sub-label of Japanese Poseidon Records. As stated at the homepage of Poseidon: "The music is primitive, but has a lot of possibility".

Analysis. “Silver Moon” is a segmented release, starting with five standalone compositions exploring slightly different musical landscapes, followed by a conceptual piece divided into seven parts. The musical style explored in these compositions is of a symphonic nature, the soundscapes being lush, melodic and dreamy. Opening tune Unacceptable-3 is characterized by layers of keyboards conveying a highly melodic and symphonic sound, jazz-influenced bass guitar, some folk music inspired segments and Japanese vocals by female guest vocalist Izu. The Contact continues the symphonic tendencies, but this time with more funk-influenced segments in addition to the jazz-inspired bass, and a pop-oriented chorus that would not have been out of place on a Pet Shop Boys or Frankie Goes to Hollywood album. The folk element returns on Spring, in this particular case with influences from Japanese folk music mixed with symphonic keyboards as an instrumental piece. On Silver Moon a more traditional folk music is mixed with lush symphonic keyboards and jazz-tinged bass, with a nice addition of atmospheric electric guitar soloing at the end of the tune. Between Reality & Fantasy is the last of the standalone tracks, opening with fragile melodic keyboard textures evolving into a dreamy, heavily jazz-influenced melodic tune transforming into a melodic, symphonic rock theme before returning to a jazzier style again at the end. Beginning starts the concept creation, a piece dominated by acoustic guitar, piano and keyboard layers, evolving from a mellow melancholy mood to one more harsh and aggressive. Swallowed is a short cut with dark, rhythmic synth sounds conveying a highly sinister atmosphere; Kaleidoscope is a weird tune, sounding much like a melody played backwards with keyboard layers and violin-like sounds added to create a melody of sorts. Tell Me How explores a fragile and mellow setting with careful use of keyboards and rhythms getting slightly more intense towards the end, while Silver Water goes back to a symphonic rock setting with lots of slight changes in style throughout the song. Folk influenced segments, jazz-inspired bass licks and a multitude of keyboard layers are characteristic traits in this part of the concept piece, and there's even a segment with guitar shredding inserted way back in the soundscape to add tension and dynamics. Look Up is another brief cut combining bird like sounds with sinister melodic fragments, before Puer Aeternus ends the album with another symphonic workout, starting out mixing symphonic segments with calmer segments dominated by vocals and piano only, evolving into a lush symphonic landscape with extensive use of keyboard layers and atmospheric guitar soloing. All songs here are slow-paced; most of them symphonic in nature, with mellow, dreamy atmospheres and moods explored. Some jazz-influences and folk influenced segments add variation along with a few brief tracks that for the most part can be said to be mood pieces rather than songs as such. Still, most of this release can be said to be lush, melodic and atmospheric, indeed slightly too much so. At least to my ears, there are too few elements creating tension and nerve, the longer songs and segments in particular getting too repetitive and slightly too long.

Conclusion. If slow-paced, dreamy and atmospheric symphonic rock sounds like a good thing to you, then this is a release that should be high on your list of music to check out. People fascinated by extensive use of keyboard layers to create symphonic atmospheres might also find this release worth checking out. Other categories of listeners should look elsewhere.

Майтрейя Кали - псевдоним Крейга Смита из Penny Arkade, гитариста и сочинителя. 

Когда Penny Arkade распались, не выпустив ни одного релиза, Смит собрал оставшийся материал и объединил его с более поздним, сделанным самостоятельно в начале 70-х. В результате появились альбомы Apache и Inca. Позже они были переизданы в виде двойного LP. В обоих случаях тираж был экстремально мал 

Оба альбома на 5+. Для любителей фолк-психоделии...

1969
Отличная хэви-психоделия. Тяжелые блюз-рокеры, изобретательны и даже прогрессивны. Трое чуваков, играющих длинные (от 10 минут и более) композиции. Совершенно непонятно - куда их эта блюзовая тропка заведет в ближайшую минуту. В этом аспекте сравнимы, наверное, даже и с Groundhogs. Саунд глубок, грязен, местами психушен и, в целом, неотесан. Или, может, психоделический хэви-протопрог.

Великолепная исполнительская техника с длинными соло каждого инструменталиста. Весь альбом состоит из 4 довольно продоложительных (от 6 до 12 мин) треков, полностью инструментальных, каждый из которых на второй половине диска повторяется в альтернативном варианте, причем у The Gator Society время звучания увеличивается вдвое. Имхо, для 1968 г. работа замечательная, хотя на счет года есть разночтения – напр., Fuzz Acid & Flowers обозначает этот диск 1967 г. (в этом случае это просто outstanding), AMG – 1968, а, например, The Acid Archives of Underground Sounds дает в качестве первого релиза 1970 г.(из инета )

1978Another lost gem of progressive rock? One way or another, Skryvania were a symphonic prog act, as short-lived as they were young, at least at the time of releasing their sole full-length. Over a decade later, Musea Records (an outlet to be respected for giving attention to these unknown artefacts) brought the album somewhat back to life with an expanded CD release. While it's always my desire when taking a look at these 'lost' albums to find some obscure marvel that like-minded listeners may love, I can't say there's that sense of revelation in hearing Skryvania. Although their grasp of progressive rock form is impressive given the fact they were all teenagers at the time of its release, there's no impression they were taking their obvious love for Yes in any particularly vibrant direction. By 1978, symphonic prog had become a pretty tired trend, and there's not a great deal about Skryvania's lo-fi copycat material to change anyone's mind. Even so, I think Skryvania still deserve praise for their technique. While proficiency is practically a pre-requisite for almost all progressive rock, it's pretty easy to look past the obvious Yes and Genesisisms to identify a band with a solid technical grasp, not to mention a passion for the material they're playing. Regardless whether we're talking about the original release, or the expanded Musea edition, Skryvania's material was almost entirely instrumental, save for some poorly integrated singing towards the beginning. Listening to some of their more involved work in "Tristan & Iseult" or "Le château d'Orphée", you can tell they were part of that bloc in symphonic prog that can't decide whether they like Yes or Genesis more. Their higher energy moments sound like they may have been ripped from a Yesrehearsal tape; the aggressive bass presence of the late Chris Squire is there, as is Steve Howe's distinctive twangy style, which actually works rather well with the band's lo-fi recording. When they get slower however, they rely heavily on lush keyboards, just like Genesis. And that's basically it. I don't think Skryvania needed to innovate their own brand of progressive rock to succeed; hell, I've heard bands that follow Yes even more closely (like the more recent Wobbler) that have created amazing albums in their image. The problem with these guys, ultimately, is that they fail to make a memorable imprint with their music. Their execution is solid in spite of an obviously lacking budget, but the songwriting sounds like it was inspired by surface-level symphonic tropes, rather than, y'know, from the heart. I think the issue with their capable but aimless composition is exemplified by how much better they sound when they're playing covers, like the snippets of Yes' "Ritual" and "Close to the Edge", and Genesis' "Hairless Heart" included in the expanded edition. I think someone with no prior knowledge of either of those bands would think those to be the album's highlights. And therein lies the problem of Skryvania; they had the technique of their influences down solidly enough, but didn't have the vision to make memorable music, let alone find a style of their own.https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/skryvania/skryvania/

Stumbledown Romancer is a 1998 studio album by James Dewar. While having been completed in the late 1970s, it was never released until 1998 (Chrysalis), and even then it only had a limited release. Due to its rare nature, it has been sought after by collectors.  Scottish bassist and vocalist, born 12 October 1942 in Glasgow, died 2002.
Best known as lead vocalist and bassist with Robin Trower between 1973 to 1983

If you have ever listened to the original Stone the Crows or Robin Trower at his peak, then you've heard the voice of James Dewar. The Glasgow-born singer is one of a legion of great Scottish vocalists (including Frankie Miller, Tam White, Alan Ligertwood, Alan Gorrie and Hamish Stuart) who brought a soulful passion to their music.
Dewar's career began in the early 60s. While still a teenager he sang and played bass in the Gleneagles alongside Alec Bell (guitar), Ross Nelson (guitar), Jimmy Smith (saxophone) and David Miller (drums). By 1963 they were the resident band at Glasgow's Lindella Ballroom but their fortunes changed dramatically one night when a diminutive girl vocalist got up to sing with them. Marie McDonald McLaughlin Lawrie was barely fifteen, but her confidence was overwhelming. She joined the group, which quickly took another name inspired by the new arrival, Lulu and the Luvvers.
The realigned unit then moved across town to the hipper Le Phonograph, where they became regulars. The club was owned by Tony Gordon, who had commercial ties in London. By February 1964 he had secured a deal for the group with Decca, and the result was Shout, one of the definitive singles of the Beat era. It deservedly reached the UK top ten, but interest in the tiny singer with a fishwife's roar obscured the punch the Luvvers brought to the songs. As interest became increasingly focused on Lulu, the role of the group diminished. Session musicians were used on later recordings and, despite working on one-night stands and package tours, disaffected Luvvers began to drift away. Jimmy Dewar left in 1965, returning to Glasgow to rethink his career.
By 1967 he could be found in a new band, Sock 'Em JB, an exciting unit fuelled on material by Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, and Wilson Pickett. The vocalist was ex-Del-Jack Frankie Miller and the pianist John McGinnis, formerly of the Blues Council. (The latter act was one of the finest Scotland produced, revolving around one-time Alex Harvey saxophonist Bill Patrick and Harvey's younger brother, Leslie. Sadly, two members were killed when their van crashed returning home to Glasgow from Edinburgh, and the despondent survivors split up.) Sock 'Em JB were together for only a matter of months, ending when Miller formed a new group, Westfarm Cottage, en route to the Stoics. Dewar and McGinnis remained together and, by the following year, had formed a new tough-sounding band, blending blues and progressive rock. They were preparing to be the resident act at a new club, the Burns Howff, when Leslie Harvey and Maggie Bell walked into a rehearsal. After a jam it was suggested they join forces and Power was born.
With Bell on vocals and Harvey on guitar, the unit gelled perfectly and they quickly became one of Glasgow's most popular attractions. In 1969 Peter Grant, Led Zeppelin's manager, came to Glasgow to see them and within a matter of months they had won a management and recording deal. Renamed Stone the Crows – and with the addition of ex-John Mayall drummer Colin Allen – the group recorded two excellent albums, Stone the Crows and Ode to John Law. Bell's passionate voice and Leslie's fluid, economical style may have defined the band's music, but Dewar's role should not be underestimated. His playing was always sympathetic and his earthy duets with Bell were genuinely moving.
'He's one of the finest singers I've ever heard,' she said in a later interview. However, the axis of the band had moved – the singer and guitarist were also a couple – and both Dewar and McGinnis were unhappy with the diminished role they now played in the group they had formed. Both quit in February 1971.
'I had to get Jimmy Dewar in a band', Frankie Miller told me in 1992. 'He was doing nothing in London.' The band in question was Jude, formed in July 1971. Miller had quit the Stoics, but Chrysalis, with whom he had a publishing deal, suggested he pair with guitarist Robin Trower, who had recently left Procol Harum. With Dewar on bass and Clive Bunker (ex-Jethro Tull) on drums, Jude seemed like a marriage made in heaven, but it was not to be. 'I wanted to do the two-vocal thing,' Miller explained 'but the vehicle wasn't right. The best thing for Jimmy to do was to sing in a power trio with Robin.'
In September 1972, this is exactly what happened. A new group, dubbed 'Robin Trower', made its début in Vienna with a line-up completed by Dewar and drummer Reg Isadore. Two enthralling albums, Twice Removed From Yesterday and Bridge of Sighs, followed, on which Trower's searing but melodic guitar work was matched by Jimmy's soulful voice, fully free at last to express emotion and empathy. Another former Procol member, Matthew Fisher, produced both sets and the understanding he showed with Robin and the group was clear to hear. By 1974 Robin Trower were established on the US circuit and when ex-Sly Stone drummer Bill Lordan replaced Isadore, a more rhythmic texture came to the fore. For Earth Below (1975), Live and Long Misty Days (both 1976) ensued before another ex-Sly member, Rusty Allen, took over on bass to allow Dewar to concentrate on vocals. In City Dreams (1977) and Caravan to Midnight (1978) were completed before Allen quit and the group reverted to a trio for Victims of the Fury (1980). This was the last Robin Trower album to feature Dewar. The guitarist and drummer formed a new band, BLT, with ex-Cream bassist Jack Bruce, while Jimmy gradually dropped out of professional music altogether.
During the halcyon Robin Trower era, Dewar recorded this solo album, not released until now. Matthew Fisher was again on hand for the bulk of the recordings, producing and adding organ, piano and synthesisers. Other collaborators included Andy McMasters (ex-Motors), who wrote or co-wrote some of the material, John Platania and David Hayes from Van Morrison's Caledonia Soul Orchestra, and Fairport Convention drummer Dave Mattacks. The set includes three cover versions: the Rolling Stones favourite Out of Time (re-cut around the same time by fellow Scot Dan McCafferty), Buddy Holly's Heartbeat and the Drifters' Dance With Me, the last of which is beautifully understated. Indeed the entire selection is nicely restrained, a contrast to the sometimes turbulent sound of the Robin Trower band. The ease with which Jimmy tackles Lay Down the Night, Sands of Time, and the Christmas anthem Hosanna!, confirms his talent, but the undoubted highlights are the Dewar / Fisher composition Nature Child and the same team's title track. The mastery with which the singer approaches this melancholic piece is moving: warmth tinged with regret, and perfectly controlled – a self-portrait which sums up the poignant artistry of the whole collection.
Stumbledown Romancer is, sadly, Jimmy Dewar's last record. He is currently hospitalised in Glasgow, struck by a progressive illness without cure.
Hopefully, the release of this CD will prove a timely reminder of Jimmy's gifts, which have contributed so much to so many well-loved bands, and are here revealed for the first time in an intensely personal repertoire of his own choosing.

Tragically, James Dewar, best known as bassist and vocalist for Robin Trower and Stone The Crows, passed away on May 16, 2002. Dewar had been ill since a medical mishap in 1987. He was born on October 12, 1942.
In many people's opinion, James Dewar was one of the best vocalists in rock and roll, and while there are many who are not familiar with his work, legions of fans maintain that Dewar's rich, powerful voice was among the best. His talents as a bass player were also exceptional. Most people who are reading this will be Robin Trower fans, but to those who haven't heard James sing and play, I urge you to listen to any of the many albums he has performed on. IMHO, Dewar's voice was very similar to "Paul Rodgers'", but had a beefy, soulful timbre that set him apart from others. Needless to say, he was vastly underated, but his legacy of music proves without a doubt that he was one of the greats.
Dewar passed away at Dykebar Hospital in the UK of pneumonia. I have had conflicting reports of the exact circumstances surrounding his death, and would appreciate details if anyone close to him would contact me. I have received confirmation that that he died with his good friends Brian Denniston and Davey Pattison (former Robin Trower vocalist) in the hospital waiting room. Regardless, I'm sure his friends, fans and loved ones are less concerned with any details than they are of the tragedy of James Dewar's career and life being tragically cut short. Still, in consideration of accuracy and respect, any information about his passing would be appreciated.
There's not much more I can say. I am a huge Jimmy Dewar fan, and feel as many other might--that James was unfairly robbed of his health, happiness and ultimately his life; and that his fans and friends were robbed of a dear person and an oustanding musician. Sadness is the only word which seems appropriate. Rest in peace, James (from we here on the 'Earth Below' to wherever you may live on in the 'Earth Above').

An Epitath To A Scottish Legend:
The man who many have called “The Pavarotti of rock ‘n’ roll” died peacefully in his sleep on Thursday 16th May 2002 after a long illness.
Strangely, Jimmy’s career was not to begin with his vocal talents, but as guitar player with Lulu and the Lovers in the early 60’s. From that point on, Jimmy’s career was to flourish beyond all his expectations. Maggie Bell took him on board with the legendary “Stone the Crows” and the shy man’s voice was soon exposed on classics like “The touch of your loving hand”. Another young singer had exploded onto the music scene, but the best was yet to come.
Living in London with his wife Martha and their young family, he was approached by Frankie Miller. The two Glasgow buddies were having a small refreshment when out of the blue Frankie told Jimmy that “there might be a job going” with some guitar player called Robin Trower, that the music industry insiders were raving about. “What kind of job?” asked Jimmy. Frankie laughed and said, “Oh, I don’t know. Maybe playing bass, maybe singing”. Jimmy applied and got both jobs.
The Robin Trower Band became the hottest thing on the planet and introduced “Stadium Rock” to the U.S.A. Frankie was right! The R.T.B. were the first band to sell tickets by the hundreds of thousands. Gold and Platinum albums were thrown at them like frizbees.
Amongst James Dewars biggest fans were Frankie Miller, Billy Connolly, Donny Hathaway, Rod Stewart, not forgetting Maggie Bell and Lulu herself.
The famous Scottish screenwriter, Peter McDougall, still talks of his first experience of meeting Jimmy. When having a drink with Frankie, Peter noticed that the man standing next to him was clothed in snakeskin trousers, cowboy boots and not much else. “Who’s that?” Peter asked. Frankie replied “That’s James Dewar”. Peter howled, “ Well, I want to be one of them!”
It says it all. Everyone from Metallica to the Stereophonics were influenced by the voice of the Scotsman. The man the music industry recognized as the voice from heaven has finally gone home. We will all miss you James.

James Dewar был знаменитым шотландским басистом и певцом. Карьеру начинал в начале шестидесятых в составе группы Lulu and the Luvvers. Но зенита славы достиг в составе Robin Trower Band и Stone The Crows. Хотя насчёт славы не совсем точно. Являясь одним из сильнейших певцов рока в 70-ые он всё-таки оставался просто участником своих групп, и хотя фаны собирались стадионами на их концерты личной славой DEWAR был обделен. Шотландец имел богатый, мощный голос, с проникновенным тембром, но по словам того же Robin Trower’а так и остался самым недооцененным певцом рока. Пение Джеймса показывало влияние Ray Charles и Otis Redding. Paul Rodgers и Frankie Miller говорят, что учились на его пении. Не смотря на свою популярность (а может благодаря ей) сам Джеймс записал только один альбом в 1970 году, но и то альбом вышел только в середине 90-х годов. На альбоме ему помогал органист Procol Harum Matthew Fisher.
В 1987 году произошло печальное событие - после тяжелой болезни Джеймс Дюар оказлся прикован к инвалидному креслу. Забегая вперед скажем, что 16 мая 2002 года певца, которого звали «Паваротти рок’н’ролла» не стало. Он умер во сне. R.I.P. Буквально за несколько лет до его смерти увидел свет его первый и последний сольный альбом «Stumbledown romancer», записанный в 1979-1980 годах при помощи друзей музыкантов Mo Foster, Alan Jones, Matthew Fisher, Bill Lordan, Dave Mattacks. Очень хочется верить, что последние пятнадцать лет его жизни, проведенные в сопровождении тяжелого недуга, он знал, как много людей помнят и любят его, его музыку, его голос.
