Faust - So Far...

Well, I wandered around a bit, last three days and I must say that it was enough for me :) It's nice to wander, but you can't only do that in life. As a result, I'm not not even comply with my own blogging deadlines, what I will immediately try to rectify with this great and timeless album ...
So, turn up the amplifier, do not worry about the neighbors, Christmas time is gone, it is a time to again socialize with our loyal friend, Mr. Faust :)

John Lurie - African Swim and Manny & Lo

John Lurie, a strange guy, we could say, and also versatile artist. He dealt throughout his career with music, with acting and painting, always staying on the margins of the popular, yet leaving a strong impression on those who had the antenna to catch his signal.
And as for me, the signal was too strong to miss it. And what about your antenna? Does it work properly?  :)

Moondog - Moondog [Prestige]

Spring has arrived bringing with itself a host of impressions, new energy and a torrent of life ... Should we add something to all this? There is no need ...
But still, if the rain falls at least a half hour, or you are forced to spend that time in an enclosed space, you have enough time to listen to this great album, and at the same time, without disturbing rhythm of spring, you can continue collecting of impressions  :P

Robert Plant & The Strange Sensation - Mighty ReArranger

Robert Plant, regardless of the demands of the time, the market and the development of production, during his long career managed something very difficult. The result of his work has always been authentic, and at the same time he respected all of the above requirements ....
Such an attitude toward work, at least for me, deserves a lot of respect in the first place, because those who have managed to achieve his whole career without any qualitative downs, there are very few. Most of losing at least a decade, failing to cope with the demands of time ... The only person I can think of, who did it successfully, is Martin Scorsese, although he's from the world of movies ...

After all, keeping in mind that Plant is sixty years old, just listen to how this album sounds. Modern, very adventurous and very strong :)

Howie B - Folk

I'm not sure what to think about this album. Sonically, the first half is like an extension of trip - hop in the early nineties, and all songs are melodically great, not only great, but also potential hits (at least in my head :). Then, a complete change of mood, did something crashed in the meantime? Dark rhythms, ambient and industrial sounds,  and in the end moving to a cosmic perspective ... Who knows...
However, after I listened to the lyrics, It was a little bit clearer (although, not so much :), maybe is this the search for the elusive freedom and satisfaction during the earthly life, an ancient theme in modern suit. And, I wonder if this album is just an electronic imprint of an ordinary lifetime :)
