The 2nd film of the Krautrock Trilogy explores eminent Krautrock bands from the South of Germany. Highly recommended, please help Jose and Adele get this second installment out!

Gordon Haskell, perhaps best known in Prog circles as the vocalist on King Crimson's Lizard album, passed away on October 18th. His second solo album, 1971's It Is and It Isn't, opened a career that would offer him little reward until his substantial hit "How Wonderful You Are" in 2001. RIP, my condolences to his friends and family.

Charles recently gave an interview to Phil Aston of the excellent Now Spinning website in the UK. Take a read it has some insights on how I put the book together and what I think of newly remixed albums!

Dyble Longdon is a collaboration between iconic vocalist Judy Dyble (ex Fairport Convention, Trader Horne and Big Big Train songwriter and frontman David Longdon. Their highly anticipated album Between A Breath And A Breath will be officially released on 25 September. The CD edition is released on English Electric, distributed by RSK, and the gatefold vinyl edition is released on the Plane Groovy label. The album contains seven original compositions with all lyrics by Judy Dyble and music and production by David Longdon. The songs are, at times, haunting and, at others, beautifully fragile.

Legendary German band EPITAPH is releasing a new single and video on 23 July. Their cover version of ‘Rare Bird’s ‘Sympathy’ is taken from the band’s recently released triple CD box set "Five Decades of Classic Rock". Both the single and the album clearly illustrate why Epitaph has earned a reputation as one of the country’s foremost Prog rock acts.

Founded in 1969, Epitaph made music history in the 70s becoming the first German band to tour the USA several times. In 1974 they produced their album “Outside The Law” in Chicago.

Whoever said there could be too many cooks in the kitchen? With a bevy of fans, six members of Gentle Giant reunite for "Proclamation," a fan video produced by Damon Shulman. Check it out!

Saw the news that singer Judy Dyble passed away after a lengthy illness. As an original member of Fairport Convention, Judy was a pioneer female singer in the London underground, and next, a catalyst for the formation of King Crimson. My condolences to her family and friends.
