Talking of prog: the first hour or so of today's show will mostly be experimental type stuff, but after that there will be lots of prog (and psych).

The discogs bio for Martin Burlas (on now) is rather odd: "His last works are mostly based on combination of easy listening of the 60’s tradition with electronic minimalism and seems to be rather emotionally soft. Not very expressive means are used in his works." I'm guessing he wrote it himself.

It's quite a good album. The cover kind of makes it look like a Mothers of Invention record -- and, in fact, there are some parallels. www.discogs.com...

Had the original years ago, but stupidly sold it.

It really is amazing how many Magma-inspired bands there are -- dozens, at least.

MrFab:

Wassup, y'all!

Yeah, there's a self-identified 'zeuhl' band here in LA - but they're only a duo. Doesn't the definition demand a vocal choir?

Yep -- in March. I'm definitely going -- they were great last time.

Heya, Fab! Don't need a vocal choir to be a zeuhl band, I don't think. Definitely do need a throbbing bass, though....

Speaking of psych, I'm always on the lookout for Bonzo-esque nonsense from the hippie era. individual tracks, as I don't expect too many other entire bands devoted to such silliness. Any ideas, Tony (or anyone)?

yes, I've known about 'em for a while and for some reason have never gotten around to checking 'em out. They got compared to Beefheart, always a plus in my book.

I think Fisher became a Sanyasin and did New Agey music for a spell, to fill out his resume even further.
Not sure what he's doing now. I sure love his stuff, esp. Hybrid Kidz, his Miniatures compilations, etc.

I often confuse Morgan Fisher with Matthew Fisher. I would have sworn Matthew also lead a proggy eponymous group post-Procol Harum.

@ MrFab: Here's a tasty Polish Bonzoid outfit: rateyourmusic.com...

Also Mr Fab - I would check out -
Family - Music in a Dolls House;
July - 1st album - a still unknown psyche classic with a few Bonzo like touches here and there.
Audience - 2nd and 3rd album - a bit heavier than the Bonzos but some whimsical inventive stuff!

These guys too (also Polish): rateyourmusic.com...

VANDALISM GENERATOR:

Mr Fab - the first two Soft Machine albums (before they went all Miles runs the voodoo down) are chock full of whimsical psyche and funny wordplay!
Avatar 2:08pm

Those two Polish outfits are Bonzoid in that they wackify and surrealicize trad jazz.

Mr Fab: The two Hatfield and The North albums also have a touch of that early Softs ridiculousness and whimsy.

Hi Tony! As always, wondering "where does he find all this stuff?"!
  2:34pm
MrFab:

"Songs the Bonzos Taught Us" is indeed wonderfully wonderful. Actually, these Studs are pretty silly they own selves.
Avatar 2:34pm

sorry Mr Fab - just remembered Tea and Sympathy - An Asylum for the musically insane is very Bonzoid!

the Canterbury wood-elf:

I heard a Gong track I'd somehow never heard before the other day. Chris M played "Ooby-Scooby Doomsday or The D-day DJ's Got the D.D.T. Blues" (an outtake from the Angels Egg sessions) on his show. Very silly indeed!

I'd say there's still plenty of Bonzoid ridiculousness being produced over here, but it's all *very* underground, unlikely to get as far as the Superbowl halftime show! When John Peel was alive, he always seemed to find and celebrate that stuff (Half Man Half Biscuit and I Ludicrous come to mind). He's missed...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:46pm
Rich in Washington:

2nd Half Man Half Biscuit! I think they're brilliant. Another group I quite like, in a gentler, loony way, Jazz Butcher (Conspiracy, et al).

Quite topically, someone just this moment sent me this link to a clip about Vermin Supreme, the neo-dadaist US presidential candidate: newsy.com/56839 He's the American answer to our Screaming Lord Such (who made some albums back in the day) of the Monster Raving Loony Party.
