Love that Kultivator album Sagi! Always felt a strong Canterbury and Zeuhl odour coming from that one.....and it's from Sweden no less!!!
Pretty mellow Sunday with my folks. Spent most of it out in the garden pulling weeds out of the ground whilst listening to:
Django Django - Born Under Saturn
Edgar Broughton Band - Sing Brother Sing
Brian Jonestown Massacre - Aufheben
Invisible - El Jardin de los Presente
Dr John - Gris-Gris
Brand X - Livestock
Genesis - Shapes

One of my most favourite albums from Sweden no doubt about it. Also the last reissue of it contains excellent bonus material which is now really worth the purchase. And yes man the Zehul influences are all over it which is another reason for me to like it so much. BTW another band that comes to mind when I mention Kultivator is Myrbein, also from Sweden and also released their only album in the same year 81'.

Yeah, listening to it always leaves me with
a smile on my face, and I agree about the sunny vibe as well. It really
is a summer album for me (to be played in the summer, or any other time
of the year when I wish it was summer  ). I think I got the album and listened to it for the first time in the summer/early spring as well. And
you're not the first to compare the sound of it to The Doors. I always
think of The Beatles and The Beach Boys, too, when I listen to it, but
that's perhaps because of the summer connection. Glad
you like it. As you probably understand by now, it's a spceial album
for me. First MP album I got and heard. Pretty much love at first
listen.
Led
Zeppelin - The Soundtrack from the Film The Song Remains the Same
(their best live album? OK, that's probably HtWWW, but this is really
great too, wonder why I don't listen to it more often...listening to the
soundtrack beats watching the movie, that's for sure. The movie's good
too, of course, but I prefer to just concentrate on the music, makes you
realise how good it really is) |
I'll have to get the album to listen this summer  It is certainly easier to get into it at first listen than the last one, but both really great in different ways  By the way, I listened to a song from 'Death Defying Unicorn' the other day and it sounds really epic 
I only saw the movie, it's really good although I find the 30 minute version of Dazed and Confused so boring 
|
TDDU is epic from start to finish, Sam. A true prog rock masterpiece. Their first, and probably last. Not ones to stay within a genre for too long, MP, in fear of getting stale, and being pigeonholed by critics.
That said, their last album, "En konsert...", is a slight return to prog, although not really. It has some of the same qualities as TDDU, but it doesn't sound the same, much. Slightly same approach, but not really. Same, but different, if you know what I mean. 
See what you mean regarding "Dazed...", a bit boring, I agree, and too long, too. Watching it, at least. Hearing it without having to watch Jimmy climbing up that mountain is definitely favorable. 
Anyway, the last few days:
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti Led Zeppelin - Presence Led Zeppelin - In Through the Out Door Led Zeppelin - Coda Led Zeppelin - Celebration Day Page & Plant - No Quarter: Jimmy Page & Robert Plant Unledded Page & Plant - Walking into Clarksdale Robert Plant - Dreamland Steely Dan - Aja Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene

What was the other album of theirs you listened to, their debut? They're not totally dissimilar sounding from their first album to their last, some things are still there, most notably, as you say, the vocals, but they're a band that's progressing, that's for sure!  |
I'll certainly check those two  You're right, Jimmy's video is so boring Yes, it was the first one. Last weekend: Santana - Abraxas Duke Elington & John Coltrane - s/t Tangerine
Dream - Logos (Side A, the power went down because of a thunderstorm so
I didn't finish it. I played 'Riders on the Storm' in my head after that ) Today: Ginhouse - s/t Reale Accademia Di Musica - s/t (Great album  )
