Sun Ra And His Arkestra Featuring Pharoah Sanders And Black Harold (1976)- **1/2
(Original copies of this have sold for $500 on average, and as much as $1100! It's a pretty tough listen, even if you dig free jazz.)
Wingless Angels- Volume Two (2010)- ****
Gene Clark- No Other (1974)- ****
(Always thought this was a tad overrated...until today. Pretty great.)
Sun Ra- Jazz In Silhouette (1959)- ***
Quiet Sun- Mainstream (1975)- ****
The Left Banke- Walk Away Renee/Pretty Ballerina (1967, Stereo)-****
Ramases- Space Hymns (1971)- ***1/2
(Essentially the first 10cc record, written and sung by Kimberly Barrington Frost, aka Ramases. Solid, spacey, weird and a lot of fun.)
Rockfour- Octopus Ride: Rockfour Playing Syd Barrett (2026)- ****
The Electric Prunes- Underground: MONO (1967)- ****
(Much better than the first album.)
v/a-Where The Action Is: Los Angeles Nuggets, 1965-1968- Personal Playlist (2009/2026)- ***1/2
Ultravox- Ha! Ha! Ha! (1977)- ****
Michael Monroe- One Man Gang (2019)- ****

I first heard This Mortal Coil’s version of Strength of Strings which made me seek out Gene Clark’s original. No Other’s use of strings in the arrangements makes it a bit baroque compared to The Byrds and other Gene Clark albums, but that allows it to stand out.

Mod Lang could be touring with the Wonders on That Thing You Do.
Love it!
