The ten polls that follow this will be more well known but lots of excellent obscure albums to pick from here.
The four that standout for me are Xing Sa, F.Thollot, The Spacious Mind and Out Of Focus. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Good, good...looking forward to giving them a couple votes most likely. I still want to hear this Yugen, by the way...every time I've checked on it it's been out of stock or I ended up deciding not to get it for some reason.

Labirinto D'acqua is the rare 6 star album for me. Absolute perfection from second 1. ------------- Dig me...But don't...Bury me I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect. |

I went with Thollot. Man i do love this recording. Thollot offers up Fripp-like angular guitar while Jeand'heur the ONE SHOT drummer and fellow ONE SHOT member Bussonnet kills on drums and bass repectively. And yes Bussonnet plays for MAGMA too. Jeand'heur adds some piano as well. One of my all-time fav Zeuhl records right here. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I've been meaning to get that one I noticed on the Wayside site that they mention that YUGEN cover HENRY COW's Industy on this. How cool is that ! Recorded live at the Rio Fest in France in 2011. You were probably at that one Eugene ? ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

XING SA: one of my five stars ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

I'm going with Out Of Focus. That S/T album is actually their second and in my opinion their best. Listed under JRF definitely doesn't cover their style, they have a little bit of everything reminds me of Thirsty Moon. |

I like their first better but both are very similar in style before they turned more into the Jazz flavour with that double album. A definite Krautrock flavour which i love and the lyrics can be off the wall but if anything they are entertaining. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |
