One of the most adventurous guitar bands right now. A This Heat-meets-Bauhaus kind of atmosphere, with very inventive guitar work.

A lost classic of industrial, specifically the ambient leaning styles. Morphogenesis is also described as being the last band to do any of the kind of electronic improvisations Cale and Stockhausen made famous in the '60's and '70's.

Lears Fool, I don't want to quote your posts cause it'd jam up the bandwidth, but I gotta say, I've been diggin your favorites.  Keep em coming.  I was just listening to the Beta Band a week ago or so - they were a great band while they lasted.

That's on my list of albums to get.  I haven't listened to them yet (and don't want to yet), but several people whose opinions I value (and now you) have given it their highest recommendation.

Here's my pick of the day.  I just got a CD by these guys, and although none of the album tracks are on youtube, they're an improvisational trio anyway, so a good live clip should do the job.

Sometimes you just need to take a week or so and read the entire Wayside catalog, and build a wish list.  I did this a year or so ago and just now got this, something I'd never heard of before but for which Uncle Steve's description sounded cool.  This is the kind of free rock improv stuff I like.

I love the tracks by a prog rock / hard rock band in the 1970's called "Voodoo". At the bottom of this post is a link to two of their tracks (apologies for the poor quality). Anyone know who they were and what any members of the band are doing nowdays?

This is what I know about them:
Voodoo (named after Hendrixs Voodoo Child ?) that I saw playing live upstairs at Ronnie scotts in London, UK around early summer (May ) 1977. They were living at a squat either in Islington or Camden, London around that time and had rehearsal and recording equipment in a sound proof room in the basement If I remember correctly.

They did some really great tracks, were brilliant song writers and had excellent musicianship,  but I think they disbanded. The guitarist / vocalist sounded like Jimi Hendrix  ( I think he was Scottish and so was the drummer?) and had a transparent guitar with a silver hemp leaf on it. 

Anyone know them or what happened to them or who they are? 

The three tracks I have on the tape are called ( I think):
1.Come Together - Jimi Hendrix sounding number
2.Green Packet   - amazing funky jazz prog rock instrumental
3. Kingdom of the Skies  - (sounds like Thin Lizzy)

Some of the lyrics of "Come together" are the following:
So you wanna mess around with me 
you wanna play this beautiful game
You wanna tell me all the rules about freedom
But you dont want to talk about your shame
Get down, get with it, get down,
Get into this crazy vibration
Let the vibes go through your body
Im sure youll get them to move
Come together all you children 
come together to get down now
I said, Come together i will give you freedom 
come together to get down now 
can you dig this vibration its running all over 
I can t ..............................running for cover
I gotta walk down this road coz I cant find any other, theres  no other
Got a little creation your about to discover
The two first tracks can be heard here:

I hope some people can shed light on who this great band was?
