I decided it's not for me either. I prefer more rhythm and structure, but I will check out his other albums. At least my new 'phones are comfy; I fell asleep with them on!haha...yeah, it's not for everyone... will check Pantha du Prince, and Visions Of Darkness tho...

Xtc. They have had a lot of really good albums but I don't know anyone that like them.

After my modern jazz contribution who was a performer who happens to be the opposite of a household name, in the realms of classic rock I really do think that John Lawton deserves more recognition. Sure, he had a brief time in the spotlight with Heep but these days he's hardly remembered, though bizarrely he's quite a big draw these days in Bulgaria.
For me he really is up there with Dio, Coverale, Rodgers and Gillan.

I like Psionic Sunspot by The Dukes of Stratosphear (XTC by another name).

I've found Martes on Qobuz, and it's more to my liking. A bit Aphex Twin, but slower. Try Nils Frahm's Solo, if you haven't already.rostro is a sublime track imo...

I'm still waiting on the re-issued 2xLP of "The Guitar And Other Machines". I've ordered it from two different shops locally but it's not here yet. Piccadily Records are the last resort for mail order.
(Any news on Vini health-wise?)
Good heavens! I thought I was the only person that owned this!
There was a story that Vini was working on a brand new album but was arguing with his producer about the release.
Also Bruce some time ago said DC would be playing live in March - but I haven't seen anything further on this.
I bought the Guitar 2xLP and 3xCD sets direct from Factory Benelux Mail Order (they both arrived in December)

Listen & enjoy.
That's a good choice.
Just dug out my Red Card album (on red vinyl).
Chappo firing on all cylinders!

Kevin Ayers. I dismissed him as a feckless piss-artist for thirty or more years, but how wrong I was. The first five albums (those in the ‘Harvest Years’ box) are excellent. Sadly it did go a bit pear-shaped after that.

Good call - and still producing interesting music in his 80s.
My vote goes to Neil Ardley. There's an entire school of British Jazz from the 60s/70s that is now largely forgotten (though Gilles Peterson did give it a voice around 15 years ago).
