Originally released on Accord Music back in 1991 officially licensed via Gallo Music, remastered & presented in it's original sleeve design for RE: WARM records. Now here's a record we felt had been criminally overlooked until now, despite Lucky still being an active musician of over 30 years and still producing music in his home country of South Africa. This is sadly so often the case for many artists of the time. Thankfully the resurgence in Bubblegum Pop, Afro Boogie, Kwaito, House & Pantsula over the last decade or so has given a new lease of life to some overlooked music from the late 80s & 90s Township subcultures from S.A. We think this one fits that Pre-Kwaito bill nicely, the genre that led a township subculture into the mainstream. It's sweet, it's sensitive, it's hopeful with very infectious rhythms and synth lines throughout, reflecting better times ahead as a new future starts to emerge from a post-apartheid South Africa. The musical palette ranges from soft soul with wonderful synth pads from Lucky Mereki and sweet lyrics from himself & Marilyn Terry on 'Lovely Sight'. A song about love and being with friends on the beach with the sea lapping at your toes and the sound of children laughing and playing games, the sax solo from Nic Paton suits the mood perfectly. Then there's the more up-tempo House rhythms akin to productions from Larry Heard, Ron Trent and Harry Dennis under THE IT Guise, tipping the hat to Hip House from around that time. Jump to 'Action' if you want that Colonel Abraham's style, Pop House sound, with a cracking Piano line, driving synth bass and classic 909 rhythm. 'Kiss Your Lips' & 'For Your Love' are the dancefloor bombs for us here at REWARM, set to light up the faces of the movers and shakers in their early 1990s Air Jordan's, colourful Shell Suits, Iceberg Jeans & Moschino Shirts. Lucky Mereki was born and raised in Galeshewe, Kimberley, South Africa. He plays bass, keyboards, guitar & drums. He started his music career in 1984 with a band called African Sounds. He then moved to Johannesburg in search of better musical opportunities. He went on to work with some of the biggest names in the South African music industry such as Yvonne Chaka Chaka, Chicco, Papa Makhene, Vusi Shange and Brenda Fassie's band, The Big Dudes. Lucky had been writing songs from the very beginning of his career before being signed for a one album deal with Accord Music in 1990 where he recorded 'You Got Me Dancing'. In 1997 Lucky started to work fulltime as a studio engineer and producer. He worked with a lot of artists, including HHP, Kabelo, Mbongeni Ngema, Hugh Masekela, Ed Jordan, DJ Dino Bravo, Juluka and many others. Lucky Mereki still continues writing and producing for a number of artists in his home country of South Africa. 5053760072096 IMT6007209.1 41997048 16.99 23.99 .05 IMPORTS VINYL LP POP INT'L & WORLD MUSIC AFRICAN POP / ROCK / AFROBEAT 11/19/2021 https://mediacdn.aent-m.com/prod-img/500/01/4006401-2743282.jpg 0 1 N SMOKE & MIRRORS PERCUSSION ENSEMBLE EARTH & WOOD Stereophile's Michael Fremer rarely rates a vinyl album with an '11 out of 10,' but he did so for Yarlung's earlier Smoke & Mirrors Percussion Ensemble release. Mr. Fremer wrote: 'The sonics here are spectacular. These performances were recorded live to tape with no editing by the seven members of Smoke & Mirrors. The recording is superbly transparent and well-captures the hall's natural reverb.' Other reviewers offered equally positive comments: The Absolute Sound's Jim Hannon reflects that this ensemble created 'a wide tapestry of rhythms and harmonics skillfully arrayed across a broad and deep soundstage. There's an immediacy, clarity, and transparency to this modern classical percussion recording that seemingly brings the performers to your living room.' The ensemble's first percussion LP earned a coveted spot on the TAS Super LP list. Writing for Mono & Stereo, Carlos Guzman writes 'the sound of this production is exquisite. A great ambiance is captured in this tape and the effortless flow of music is graciously submitted with precision and focus. The instrument timbres are accurate and the performance is second to none. The quality achieved by Yarlung's team is excellent, clearly expressed in their recordings.' We hope to make you just as happy with Earth & Wood, offering more tracks from these now legendary recording sessions in Zipper Hall at The Colburn School. Lou Harrison's magical Canticle No. 3 fills side one. This concerto for ocarina and percussion, written in 1940 and 1941, uses the haunting primitive sound of the ocarina and a steel string guitar which contrast alluringly with Harrison's creative assortment of modern and ancient instruments. Joe Beribak plays ocarina and Derek Tywoniuk plays guitar. The earthen ocarina comes from many musical cultures, some ancient, but in this recording Joe's ocarina is a version of the earthen Maya and Aztec flute. We experimented with our musicians in many different locations for this recording, since we used one stereo AKG C24 microphone and no mixer for all of our takes on this album. As Joe reminisced, 'some instruments (like tom toms and snare drums) were designed for use with a modern orchestra, while other instruments, like the ocarina and teponaztli [a slit drum made from a hollow log], are ethnic instruments designed to be played in intimate settings. So we adjusted our setup to create the balance and tone quality we wanted. We brought the ocarina closer to center, and we actually rotated the toms 90 degrees counter-clockwise in order to balance these two voices properly on the recording. As a result we needed to modify the way we cued each other, since our relative positions were radically different from the way we stand when we perform this piece live. As with everything we did in this Yarlung recording, each challenge gave us a new perspective that enriched the musical experience and made it even more fun.' 198002841711 YLNG84171.1 43294848 39.75 47.98 .62 YARLUNG RECORDS VINYL LP CLASSICAL ORCHESTRAL & SYMPHONIC 03/24/2023 0 1 N ENGINEERING DISASTERS 9 ENGINEERING DISASTERS 9 What happens when the calculations of builders and engineers prove wrong and their constructs come tumbling down?

John McLaughlin is regarded as one of the greatest guitarists in the history of music. Making albums from the 60's through the present, his intense guitar work with the Mahavishnu Orchestra and Miles Davis gave birth to jazz/fusion.

Featuring original Mahavishnu drummer Billy Cobham, plus saxophonist Bill Evans and bassist Jonas Hellborg, this high-energy electric album is regarded as one of his best efforts and has been his most sought after album for CD reissue. It is making it's worldwide CD debut! Wounded Bird Records.

In the case of Art Blakey, the name "jazz legend" is wholly appropriate.

Reminiscent of Pharoah Sanders early 70s Impulse recordings. (Previously deleted:7/1/07. Original release date:6/13/00)

Guaraldi's penchant for the music of Brazil had led to an enormous success with the hit "Cast Your Fate to the Wind" from his Black Orpheus album.
