There are plenty of Gulls Window Circus shows that start off or have a few rock songs buried within – this show flips that and has 2 non-rock songs at the start, before progressing to a rock show, with highlights such as Pajama Slave Dancers America cover, a 1973 Foghat track (classic!), a 1975 Pavlov’s Dog track, then to 1977, Mink Deville exhibiting the wide-reaching sounds of NYC CBGB ground zero, and 1981 LA with Gleaming Spires (bassist and drummer of ‘Whomp That Sucker’-era Sparks), then to 1984 late period Edward Ball (The Times).

A 4 second Marvin Gaye sample becomes a 7:18 track and it’s not a second too long – that is the LTJ Xperience out of Italy. Also excellent stuff from Dutch artist Andre de Saint-Obin, France’s Elli & Jacno, England’s Mock & Toof, and SF’s 40 Thieves and Patrick Cowley. A short but worthy dip.

A show that flits effortlessly between rock and non-rock, a marriage summed up in the collaboration between Fripp & Eno. On the non-rock side, we have 1976 Ghana Tony Sarfo & The Funky Afrosibi, 2014 Torn Hawk (Luke Wyatt), 2014 Nicholas Jaar (as Ancient Astronaut). On the rock side, 1984 Game Theory (Scott Miller) cover The Box Tops and 2002 Joey Ramone covers Louis Armstrong.

English disco artist John Schroeder opens this show with his sole release as Hi Voltage Orchestra from 1979 – very nice… US DJ Osmose does a re-edit of James Brown ‘Down And Out In New York City’ on a Smokecloud 12″. There is a 2012 track from Detroit’s Theo Parrish follows. A jazzy MadDisco re-edit. Walter Whisenhunt (promoter for James Brown, discoverer and eventual spouse of Gloria Ann Taylor), collaborates with her on a 70s funk/soul monster. Back to Detroit with Rick Wilhite. Then back to 1981 for Arnies In Love, then forward to 1984 for Pink And Black. That’s just the first hour – explore and enjoy.

Brooklyn trio Archie Pelago start off with a chilled jazzy track. Biologia (Joe Nunez) give us a modern disco track from their sole release, a 7″. Rx (a collaboration between Benedek and Delroy Edwards) continue with boogie sounds, as do Amsterdam, Netherlands based L33. At that point we start a good and proper rock show with some high-tailed glam (Brett Smiley, Bonnie St. Claire, Apple Pie & Custard), some NYC goodness (The Brats, ImpLOG, Chandra ), German pop on the awesome Firestation Tower label (Hot Rain, Monostars, The Vermont Sugar House, Shy) and who-knows-where-from reggae artist Sheila Rickards – there has been a private detective trying to find her and a documentary about it filmed but not released.
