Captain Marryat-Captain Marryat ( Glasgow Uk 1974)

This is a real Master piece. Amazing excellent wonderful album.One of my favourites for sure.

Unfortunately the whole album is in just 1 mp3. Sorry about that but i didn't find time to split it up.

Captain Marryat is a Scottish band, and have been playing together for just a year.

They were from Glasgow and they recorded this demo album in 1974, released in a tiny pressing on the Thor label, hoping to get an EMI or Chrysalis deal, who both showed interest in the band at the time. They wanted to record only a single, but instead came up with a complete album of self-composed tracks.

The line-up was:

Ian McEleny (lead guitar, acoustic guitar), Allan Bryce (organ, vocals), Hugh Finnegan (bass, vocals) and

Jimmy Rorrison (sic) (drums, vocals) and Tommy Hendry (vocals, acoustic guitar).

Track list:

01 Blindness

02 It Happened to Me

03 A Friend

04 Songwriter's Lament

05 Changes

06 Dance of Thor

Captain Marryat - Blindness - 1974 (Glasgow)(coming soon)

Lüger-Lüger(space rock Spain 2010)

I just listened to this really good album from Lüger.

Lüger is a Madrid-based quintet formed by Diego (guitar, main vocals), Dani (bass, vocals), Mario (organ, synth, vocals), Rulo (drums, samplers, effects, vocals) and Lopin (floor tom, metal sheets, percussion). They play or played in other bands such as Los Imposibles, The Awesome J'Haybers, Tres Delicias, Steelwood or Jet Lag, although Lüger is by far the most psychedelic of them all. First jam was back in Nov 2008, first show in March 2009. After playing a bunch of shows with the likes of The Intelligence, Shooting Spires, Blues Control or Rosvita, they recorded their first LP in September 2009 with famous Spanish producer Paco Loco in El Puerto de Santa Maria, Cadiz. It was mixed and mastered by Ruben Suarez at Red Led studios in Madrid. The LP will be released on April 15th, 2010, but it is also free to download off the band's bandcamp site http://luger.bandcamp.com. They are signed to Spanish underground label/promoter Giradiscos (www.giradiscos.org)

They are heavily influenced by classic acts such as Hawkwind, Faust, Neu! or Caravan but their sound is not vintage and rather modern. Their high-energy songs could remind you of modern-day psych-heads Oneida, Wooden Shjips or The Black Angels.

MÁQUINA! — Why? (proto-prog spain 1970)

This is a really beautiful album that i recently found. It's a really

classic item of the spanish progressive psychedelia and maybe the very first underground rock group to have recorded in Franco’s Spain. In 1970 Franco was still in the government in Spain and it wasn't easy to make progressive rock.

A stunning artwork depicting a clock rising from a croissant was clearly a call for Spanish youth to wake-up (and have a good breakfast) and get ready for a new day.

The opening track "I believe" is a superb instrumental with organ-piano and

aggressive guitar.Then comes high fly Psychedelia with the twenty five minute

title track "why?" Really amazing.

Track list

01.I believe

02.why?

03.why?(continued)

04.Let me be born

05.Earth's daughter

06.Look away our happiness

Enjoy ! ! !
