Peter Kowald Quintet by PETER KOWALD QUINTET An important, vibrant early document from the late, great bass player/composer Peter Kowald, never before on CD. Here are four loose-limbed performances from a 1972 concert; quiet moments of intense focus from Kowald and drummer Paul Lovens alternate with full-throated rave-ups from all five band members. (The three others are Peter van de Locht, alto; and Günter Christmann & Paul Rutherford, trombones.) For those that dig the low end, freedom, beauty. Please note too another early FMP additional to the [...]

Pete Burns is going to Liverpool - the first time since 1992 - at the request of Julian Cope. He's going to play a night celebrating Erics, but he stresses that he wouldn't normally do this sort of thing : "It seems I'm part of the Liverpool scene after all these years. It was a shame that wasn't the case when I was there." Pete pauses for a second, and reflects a little sadly. "I suppose things are always different in hindsight. "It's difficult for me to feel anything about it. It's all so long [...]
The Age of Love - The Age Of Love (Jam & Spoon Sign of the Times) : This is the sort of mood I've been in lately, one that has The Age Of Love going round inside my head for a while.

Some of you may have noticed a reference here once or twice to something called Deep Heat, this was a series of compilation albums released by the label Telstar covering the broad brush strokes of House Music in the early 90s.
