News: Wounded Bird reissues Macondo album

Here's one I've had in the collection for years, but forgot to add to the CD Reissue Wish List. I don't have to worry about that now! Macondo is a fine example of the Latin rock craze of the early 70s, spearheaded by the success of Santana. It's not quite at that level (or even Chango or Dakila for that matter), but still a fine representation of the style.

News: Wolfgang Dauner's Knirsch to be reissued by HGBS Musikproduktion

HGBS Musikproduktion is a label I'm unfamiliar with, but judging by their website it looks like they have quite an operation going. And no better place to be introduced to the label than via an Et Cetera album!

Nobuhisa clarifies for us: "HGBS stands for the MPS founder Hans Georg Brunner-Schwer.

This reissue is done by the same guy behind the Promising music MPS reissue series (apparently rights for some of the MPS titles are not held by Universal but by HGB-S's family and this one is a start of the reissue program on them)."

Thanks again Nobuhisa!

News: Aquarelle's two albums to be reissued by Belle Antique in August

Following the exciting news regarding True Myth, we've also learned that Belle Antique is reissuing both the Aquarelle albums. I've been waiting for ProgQuebec to reissue these, and it could very well be part of their plans, but in the meantime, we do know they'll be coming out in Japan on the mini LP format.

We reviewed Aquarelle for Gnosis in 2006. I hadn't yet featured them here, so they beat me to it!

News: True Myth will be released on Belle Antique in August

Generally Belle Antique licenses from other labels, so not sure if there's a jewel case coming out elsewhere, but for now we at least have our first legitimate reissue of True Myth. One of the great ironies is that True Myth was the first all digital recording in Canada. Yet it had never moved past the LP stage. Not only that, but this will be released as a mini-LP with the exact gatefold cover of the original!

We featured True Myth last December.
