Hi all, have received my copies of "Songs of Transformation" and "Dissonance/Antagonistic Music" from A-Scale today. Super-fast service from Martyn as usual!...
Hi Thomas, Martyn asked me to remind him about adding comments for the Dissonance albums on the website, as they had left out some important clarifications for...
Hi Jerry, thanks for the answer. I almost thought that BLRR wanted to keep the cds as mysterious as the original tape with its 'made-up' titles clearly not...
I have 'You Frighten' already on the Ambition vol. 1 CD, so was not as interested in getting the Perspectives CD (as I already also have the vinyl and know CR...
Hi, Just to mention I have put up links to 5 reviews of Dissonance (and cut back on my warning ;-), per the suggestion here) + tracks info for the CDs! (Still...
Thanks, Jerry, for clarifying the track list! It's amazing how seamlessly the reworked versions fit with the original material. I wouldn't have noticed the end...
Hi Thomas, I guess many have not yet bought the album ... or received it yet. One thing worth noting, I think, is that there is much outstanding singing by...
It's odd, I support Martyn, write about him, spend a lot of my time promoting dark/wyrd/esoteric folk (Unbroken Circle, Woven Wheat Whispers, John Barleycorn...
Since so few are writing I indulge myself (as usual) in writing some more comments ...: There was a reason I did not mention Max Eastley's contribution. I had...
Interesting points from both of you, Mark and Jerry. I would agree with what you say about "Murder Ballads", it took me a long time to get into these, and yes,...
If you like 'Temple Music' then they have two albums of Green Man related music exclusively available at Woven Wheat Whispers with a third coming next week. ...
Hi all, picking up from a topic briefly discussed in the "Dissonance" thread... Having found out about that mysterious first single from Reluctant Stereotypes...
Hi Thomas, Ok, nice for you -- I never buy anything at ebay and could not do so until recently as I was sort of locked out of their system because I tried to...
Hi Jerry, yes, ebay can be pretty annoying sometimes. On the other hand, it certainly is much more effective than looking through second hand shops or record...
Hi, ... I guess so ... . ... It will not ....... (but you will not get very sad because of this though, I think ... as these tracks are some very poppy tracks...
Hi, . (but you will not get very sad because of this ... okay, I guess I would agree had I heard them. Even the leftovers from "Rains" released on "Orange Ice...
Hi, ... Mostly agree. Something worth noting is that many of those songs were not bad as songs and they have made some good performances lately of some of...
Hi, Looked around a little to see what could be found and at what prices, looking at ebay, gemm.com & Amazon. It surprises me that someone would want to pay...
Hi, ... "Back from the rains" is a great song, even on the album. Most of the songs from this period only suffer from being totally misproduced (i.e. turning...
I can't say I mind any of the Reluctant Stereotypes material. The debut single, because of Martyn, and the later stuff is made tolerable because I'm a huge...
Hi, From what I have heard Cherry Red is not interested in spending any money at all more than is required to do a simple repressing of what they have, which...
... Damn. What would that remastering involve? Do they have access to the original tapes now and just want to 'tweak' them, or would remastering mean having to...
I think they have some kinds of masters for nearly everything they have recorded in a studio, but they may not have the master which was used when producing...
If they could release it on their own (or even via CR), they could do a sort of subscription. People signing up and paying in advance for the cd which then is...
