Ian, Janis - For All The Seasons Of Your Mind Sealed 1967 Stereo Original. “Janis Ian Followed Up Her Self-Titled Debut With The Appropriately Trippy For All The Seasons Of Your Mind (1968). Her No-Nonsensical Approach And Bellicose Lyrical Style Was Poignantly Defined By The Widely Banned Single "Society's Child", Which Dealt With Interracial Relationships. The Singer/Songwriter Allows For A Bit Of Psychedelic Poetry To Colour Her Commentaries. Again, She Is Accompanied By Studio Musicians Whom Ian Gives Full And Respective Credit For Their Contributions -- A Rarity For Many Solo Artists In The Late ‘60s. The Band Provide Ian With A Variety Of Sonic Pallets Ranging From The Sitar Twang Of The Opening Title Track To The Baroque Orchestration That Graces The Instrumental Introduction Of "Insanity Comes Quietly To The Structured Mind". There Are Several Introspective And More Traditional Folk Tunes Including The Stark "There Are Times", Which Foreshadows Laura Nyro's "New York Tendaberry" And The Scathing Observational Statement On The Status Of The Aged On "Shady Acres". The Quiet And Personal "Evening Star" Hearkens Toward Ian's Future Jazz-Inspired Works. She Maintains A Delicate Command Of The Stirring And Moody Piano Inflections That Trickle All Around Her Vocals In A Sort Of Improvisational Dance. The Track Also Has The Maturity Of A Pop Music Standard From The Likes Of Gershwin Or Cahn. Ian Slightly Bends The Piano Voicings To Replicate Her Own Soulful Intonations. One Of The Hidden Gems On The LP Is The More Contemporary Minor Chord Masterpiece "Bahimsa". The Performance Evokes A Distinct European Flavour That Might Suggest The Incredible String Band Or Pentangle.” Lindsay Planer AMG....more

Dramarama - Cinéma Vérité 1985 Hard To Find Original. "Probably The Greatest Rock Release From 1985 That Almost No One Has Ever Heard, Cinema Verite Is A Simply Fantastic Album. Blending Everything From British Invasion Panache And Glam Influences To Punk Energy And Back Again, Its Cult Legend Was Established By L.a. Dj Legend Rodney Bingenheimer. He Played "Anything, Anything (I'll Give You)" To Death On His Show And Created A Sizeable Following For The New Jersey Band In Southern California. It's No Surprise Why: "Anything, Anything" Simply Smokes, A Rave-up For The Modern Day That Starts With A Blasting Riff Before Hitting A High-speed Punch That Doesn't Stop, While Singer John Easdale Details The Highs And Lows Of A Relationship With A Breathless Yowl. There's Much More To Cinema Verite Than That Song, Though, As Even A Casual Listen Demonstrates. Guitarists Mr. E Boy And Peter Wood Distill The Kick Of Performers Like Keith Richards, Mick Ronson, And Mott The Hoople-era Mick Ralphs Into A Hot-wired Combination, While Rhythm Section Chris Carter (Bass) And Jesse (Drums) Hit The Beat With Heart And Talent. Add In Keyboardist Theothorous Athanasious Ellenis For Final Flair And The Results Are Jaw Dropping. "Scenario," For Instance, Is The Greatest Song The Psychedelic Furs Never Wrote, With A Chugging Beat, Cut-to-the-chase Solos, And Easdale's Delicious Dylan-into-ian Hunter-via-bowie Vocals Creating The Definition Of Energetic Melancholia. Speaking Of Bowie, There's A Fantastic Cover Of His "Candidate," The Freaked-out Psychosis Fully Intact, Not To Mention A Nicely Dissipated Take On The Velvet Underground's "Femme Fatale." Add In Everything From The Anguished Kick Of "Questions?" And The Building Explosion Of "Some Crazy Dame" To The Concluding Elegance Of "Emerald City," And This Isn't A Cult Classic, But Classic, Period. Rhino's Welcome Reissue In 1995 Tacked On Eight Bonus Tracks, Including Demo Takes And Sparer, Nervous Early Singles, And Two Extensive Essays Celebrating Both The Band And This Wonderful Record."
