Two-CD boot of most (if not quite all) the outtakes/leftovers from the Floy's late 69/early 70 recording sessions for the Zabriskie Point soundtrack.

Starting the new year with a perennial favourite: Caravan, 'Cunning Stunts'

Saw them at Reading promoting this album and the band and a couple of roadies came onstage at the start before they had played a note. They lined up across the stage, turned their backs on the audience and whipped their jeans down. On each bum cheek was a letter that joined together read Cunning Stunts.

More from Camel, which I was playing last year (yesterday in fact). Progressive rock gets such bad press these days, which I cannot understand. I find it most enjoyable.

But no doubt the concert was enjoyable after that!

Caravan always had a great sense of humour, as evidenced by some of their album and song titles.

Terry Callier - Time Peace - ripped CD: why: inspired by previous posts and it's been a long time since I listened to it.
