The Col Nolan Quartet – Love In Spring (The King Of Thailand) / Dry Country 7″
[ M7 Record / MS-208 / 1977 ]
Release on the M7 Record Label in 1977. This is a photo of a record I saw on eBay so I haven’t actually owned a copy or even heard the record, but I’ve heard that “Dry Country” is pretty killer so I hope I get the chance to hear it some time.
The Gringos – Latin Fun 7″ EP 1969
I found this 45 on my travels yesterday and from the liner notes the group appear to be from Adelaide in Australia. It says they became well know to diners at one of Adelaides leading hotels and regularly appeared on the Channel 10 Live Show. The Four piece group consists of, band leader Miguel Salerno (who also arranges and produces this record), Anna Rys, Marcello & Tommaso Gabellone.
The EP’s sound is mainly laidback vocal, lounge mixed with a Latin flavour groove, but the song “La La La” gets a little funky at times and features some really nice hammond solo action in the second half (Nothing crazy but not too bad at all).
There will be a great mix of sellers at the next fair bringing everything from 60′s & 70′s Rock & Roll, Sweet Soul music, Motown, Progressive Rock, Classic Hip hop from the 80′s & 90′s and current stuff too like Madlib, J Dilla etc, Afro Beat, 7inch Funk, Original USA Jazz ranging from pure classic’s, CTI, Fusion & Funky Jazz and everything in between. There will also be Rock- Pop favorites like Pink Floyd, Springstein, Led Zeppelin, Kate Bush, Talking Heads, Elvis, AC/DC and so on. There’s going to be Rare Aussie stuff too so make sure you get on down.

For the second release in a series of lost Australian recordings, The Roundtable offers another soundtrack that was shelved soon after it was recorded. Composed by jazz eccentric John Sangster, Once Around The Sun was the score written to feature on the unreleased 1970 film documenting the Australian Ourimbah Festival: Pilgrimage of Pop. Unheard for the last forty years, the music from this film sees Sangster blend themes of Space mythology and 60s counterculture to produce THE most expansive, heaviest and experimental piece of music ever recorded in Australia. Reminiscent in tone Sun Ra’s Space is the Place and Jean Claude Vannier’s L’enfant Assassin des Mouches, Once around the Sun is one of the few examples of Australian orchestrated Psychedelic Jazz to be made.
Cosmic mood music laced with heavy acid psych and pastoral folk sit alongside Eastern Mysticism and exotic Avant Garde jazz. While the musicians responsible have not been extensively documented it is reported that alongside Sangster on Percussion and the Sydney Philharmonic, the music was played by members of the Don Burrows Quartet, SCRA, and an early incarnation of The Galapagos Duck band. Truly a unique Australian timepiece, this is the heaviest slab of Australian film music ever committed to tape. Together with recordings such as the Marinetti OST, Once Around The Sun is an amazing document of the visionary and experimental mind of Australia’s jazz outsider, John Sangster.
Rob Thomsett / Yaraandoo
[SIR003LP] Replica LP. AVAILABLE NOW – Repressed by ROUNDTABLE RECORDS
From deep within the Australian Outback comes Yaraandoo, the 40,000 year-old sound of antediluvian Aboriginal folklore channelled through Mellotron, hypnotic washes of Moog oscillations, Bamboo flutes and tape delay. Welcome to the unearthed, unheard of and undefinable genre of Australian Dreamtime Psych…. Re-presented for the first time, The Roundtable announce a much anticipated reissue of this mythical Australian Lo-fi concept recording composed by Jazz guitarist Rob Thomsett. Working in a similar impressionistic mode as other Australian originals Sven Libaek and John Sangster, Thomsett sets to music the Aboriginal Dreamtime myth of Yaraandoo, The legend of the dawn of creation. Self recorded on a two track in 1974 then privately pressed and distributed amongst friends, Yaraandoo is without a doubt the most desired and speculated Australian progressive recording in existence. With only 100 handmade LP copies originally pressed, copies of this phenomenal LP rarely surface. Yaraandoo is a true lost timepiece from the Australian underground.
The Roundtable. A reissue label dedicated to unearthing lost and underground recordings from the 1960′s & 70′s. Focusing mainly on Australian music but never forgetting lost recordings from around the globe. From obscure film scores to Musique Concrete, from psych to lost private press oddities.
