This week Gulls Window Circus inhabits 70s hard rock from the edges. Packed with unknowns, plus lesser known tracks by the eight artists with name recognition (Captain Beefheart And His Magic Band, Sweet, Brian Auger’s Oblivion Express, The Amboy Dukes, Black Oak Arkansas, James Gang, Robin Trower, and Beck, Bogert & Appice). Among the artists who careers lay outside of wider audiences, you will hear a track from Diamond Reo’s second LP, an Ian Gillan band that never released anything in its day, the never released third LP by Pavlov’s Dog, and many other stellar tracks that only lacked the critical velocity of a lot of ears hearing them.

Late 60s through mid-70s vinyl LP tracks Gulls Window Circus show mixes it up with the feel, from rootsy to psychedelic to wide-eyed to soul to jazzy and prog. The main thing was to find elusive ties between the tracks to make them all fit together as one for you.

Hard sound punk/hardcore/harder-indie vinyl show on Gulls Window Circus. The show goes as far back as BOA’s 1974 Martha & The Vandellas cover and as recent as the Strange Club Records ‘Secret Futures’ comp, the Big Flame ‘Peel Sessions 84-86’ 10″, and the debut 7″ by Boston band Out Of The Blue (doing a Wipers cover). The idea for this show started with a re-evaluation of 7 Seconds ‘New Wind’ and Uniform Choice ‘Staring Into The Sun’ LPs (both at-the-time not particularly appreciated), then blossomed into a collection of tracks I though fit well with those records. You will also hear late-period Forgotten Rebels (’86 LP ‘The Pride And The Disgrace’), Big Boys doing a Kool & The Gang cover, Eighth Route Army’s final 7″ ‘Jesus DeMilo’ from 1988, The Nuns with a 1977 demo version of ‘Suicide Child’ that is way different than the version you know, and 2 tracks by the Dictators’s Scott Kempner band Del-Lords.

A rock vinyl Gulls Window Circus show stuffed with recent releases, reissues, and RSD records. The unreleased Pavlov’s Dog 3rd LP found a recent release, The Public Image ‘First Issue’ RSD release doesn’t say it, but it has a completely different mix that was intended as the US release but never came out. There are four records that are not recent releases, reissues, or RSD: The Boston 1980 Bound & Gagged 12″ which I had been seeking for ages, a 1983 track by Gleaming Spires (who included Sparks members that stayed in L.A. when the Mael brothers moved overseas), a 1975 David Werner track, and The Twenty-Seven 7″ from 1979 (not related to the Boston band 27). Many treats in today’s show – engage and enjoy.

A vinyl rock Gulls Window Circus show with new newest releases from long established artists [Brian Eno, Witch, Mekons, Bob Mould, X, John Cale], and recent reissues that I really like [Salty Dog, Cluster, Henry Badowski, Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan, Cornflake Zoo, Chrissy Zebby Tembo & Ngozi Family, Hindu Love Gods, Johnny Dowd, Talk Talk], and some dig-beneath-the-surface finds such as Fraternity (Bon Scott’s first band), Jeff Bridges (the actor also plays), and Empire (Bob Andrews and Mark Laff from Generation X, self-releasing what would have been LP #2). Plus, the Ithaca NY artist Park Doing and the recent Drag City 10″ by David Eugene Edwards (Sixteen Horsepower) & Al Cisneros.
