The Dancer [SHM-CD] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]Gary BoyleAMAZING RECORD FROM 1977
this was GARY BOYLES solo album after he disbanded ISOTOPE and this is as great as all 3 ISOTOPE records where i reviewed here....... lets put it this way if you are a fan of JEFF BECK you will LOVE all 3 ISOTOPE discs as well as THIS GARY BOYLE solo disc from 1977, this has amazing crisp clear sound to it, the SHM remastering sounds amazing here and the japan mini lp replication is beautiful!!!!! gary sure should have been much bigger & got a lot more attention then he did back in the day, THIS IS FANTASTIC JAZZY ROCK typical mid 70s sounding.... this could be the soundtrack to a typical early to late 70s detective t.v show.........

NativeOne RepublicVery good
Beyond my expectation, very good! I hope that CD Japan will have more in stock, not sure if it's due to COVID or something, the resource here is kind of limited. But in general I love this purchase experience.

Illusion [SHM-CD] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]IsotopeFANTASTIC!!
this was the second album ISOTOPE released in 1975, great british prog/jazz band that featured GARY BOYLE, this disc sounds fantastic with the japan shm remastering and the sound is awesome!!!! when you listen to music like this THIS IS HOW YOU WANT TO HEAR THE MUSIC!! anyway beautiful mini lp replication here and as a bonus this comes with a typical JAPAN gull records obi strip replication wich means these 3 albums must have been released on vinyl in japan back in the 70s but im happy with THIS SHM cd set!!!
-
Deep End [SHM-CD] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]IsotopeGREAT FINAL ALBUM!!!
this was the last record ISCOTOPE would release in 1976, this was the last masterpeice GARY BOYLE would do before going off in 1977 to do a solo record... anyway as with ALL 3 records this band released in the mid 1970s ISOTOPE was one of the best british prog/jazz rock bands out of the uk at this time!!! this remastering on the shm mini replication sleeve is fantastic and the sound is superb!!! this is the best cd version of all 3 of these discs i have ever heard, also 3 2001 remastered/remixed bonus tracks are included here...

Hotel California [SACD Hybrid]EAGLESI became a believer
At first I was skeptical how good can this remastering be. Then I got the sacd I was simply amazed that it can sound that good. I will leave the tecnical side to others but for me this is what audiophile really sounds like period.

Isotope [SHM-CD] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]IsotopeGREAT BRITISH JAZZ/ROCK
i have always loved this great, brief british jazz/ rock band that released 3 great albums in the early to mid 70s and then split up, THIS SHM mini lp replicated sleeve is fantastic and sounds the best it ever has on the cd format!!!, this was released originally in 1974, my guess is this got a japan lp issue back then to as a bonus GULL RECORDS JAPAN OBI STRIP comes with my copy here, great to hear this music flow!!!! great stuff, also great guitar work that blends well with everything else.....
-
Solar Music Live [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]GrobschnittAMAZING LIVE ALBUM FROM 1978
this is a fantastic amazing sounding disc of this live album by GROSCHNITT released in 1978 originally.... amazing remastered sound here as with the rest in this series, this live album is a good cross between HEAVY KRAUTROCK AND AMAZING GUITAR PLAYER WITH GREAT ORGANS MIXED IN..... the mini lp replication is perfect as per the original german brain records release!!!!! i cant say enough about this great live album!!!!
-
Jumbo [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]GrobschnittGREAT!!
this was the third album released by GROBSCHNITT in 1975, as with the others great mini lp replication as well as an amazing sounding cd with fantastic remastering, the sleeve is replicated down to perfection as per the original brain records 1975 german release.. also we get some great LIVE bonus tracks on this edition...
-
Rockpommel's Land [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]GrobschnittAMAZING SOUND.
this was another great GROBSCHNITT album from 1977, the sleeve artwork alone has all the elements of a ROGER DEAN SLEEVE by YES or EARLY URIAH HEEP sleeves, anyway this is a very blown out sounding krautrock record and very spacey yet strange sound like a lot of these german bands could be in the 70s like BIRTH CONTROL, ELOY or JANE.... anyway this is a fantastic japan remastered sounding disc with another great amazing mini lp sleeve replication as per the original brain records 1977 release...... the best cd reissue ever of this krautrock record...
-
Grobschnitt [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]GrobschnittFANTASIC 5OTH ANN RELEASE.
this is about my favorite record by GROBSHNITT!!!! this is a powerful symphonic but very early 70s prog album, very european sounding with some very overlooked guitar work that is amazing!!!!!! this was the outfits first album back in 1972!!!! the beautiful mini lp replication is almost perfect as per the original BRAIN RECORDS german pressing from 50 years ago.......... fans of krautrock as well as late 60s early 70s european obscure and hard rock WILL LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! long time reissue coming here.
-
Ballermann [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)]GrobschnittGREAT!!!
this was the second record released by GROBSHNITT in 1974, as always the japanese label did a great job on the original german lp replication sleeve right down to the gatefold sleeve and all, this was a very good hard rock/prog record very european sounding for this time, this was originally released in 1974.. the mogg/hammond organ goes over very well here as does the guitar work i feel!!!! this was long before GROBSCHNITT became a german pop band in the 80s... the disc sounds fantastic with this remastering!!! very loud sound!! very crisp!!! this is the best cd copy of bellerman to have on the cd format!!
