Peter Thomas "Sound Music Album 6" Golden Ring 1973? Rip@320K Fuzzy Funky Freakout!


    These are the kind of library records I always hope to find!  I like to think of 5&6 like Peter Thomas's lost weekend or something.  Just experimenting with friends all wasted with the tape machine running.  Tons of synth, probably the Tho-Wi-Phon he invented, wobbly bass, and the most amazing octave fuzz guitar tone.  Many of the tracks remind me of the Krautrock bands of the time like Guru Guru or Can.  I don't know if all of these came in a generic sound music jacket but this one did, and there is no date printed anywhere.  If 5 came out in 1973 and 7 came out in 1975, I would assume this one came out in 1973 cause the style is almost the same as 5.  Unfortunately I do not own a personal copy of Sound Music Album 5, thus I will not post it.  There are plenty of rips floating around the net though, and if you do a little search I'm sure you will find it, and please do, because that one is a true psych masterpiece.  So enjoy this fresh rip @320K from my personal collection and don't forget to leave a comment!  Thanks, Chris Tillotson

Peter Thomas "Sound Music Album 7" Golden Ring 1975 Rip @320K


   Another awesome Sound Music Album from Peter Thomas.  Many dope jams on this, ranging from dark heavy grooves, to a goofy Charlie Brown type song.  His style is definitely more straight forward and focused here than 5&6, but is a welcome direction I think.  The album starts off super strong with, "Dark Natur", with its heavy piano stabs, saw wave sweeps, and incredible bass riffs.  The feel good grooves of, "Sound Colours" is another standout, I could listen to that style all day.  Most of the songs have 2 versions with slight variations and mixes.  So enjoy another Sound Music Album ripped from my personal collection @320K & don't forget to leave a comment!  Thanks Chris Tillotson    GET IT HERE!

Peter Thomas "Sound Music Album 4" Golden Ring 1973 Rip @320K


  One of my favourite Peter Thomas records, this is where I think he just really decided to do whatever he wanted, a definite bridge from 1,2,3 to 5 and 6.   It might be my favourite unlistenable record to listen to, ha ha.  The music is still jazz band based, instead of fuzz and synth (Sound Music 5 & 6) but the structures are so disorienting and fresh.  When me and my friends were jamming this for the first time, one guy said, this is the best shit I've heard, while someone else said, he couldn't stand it.  So I guess it's a love it or hate it record, regardless it's definitely worth your time.  Enjoy from my personal collection rip@320K and please don't forget to leave a comment.  Thanks, Chris Tillotson     Update:First rip had "Schizostrings" cut off, the link has been updated with full version of schizostrings, sorry for my mistake  11/15/2013       GET IT HERE!




Peter Thomas & Sten Clift "Sound Music Album 3" Golden Ring 1973 Rip @320K


     Continuing on with Golden Ring, another awesome record by Thomas & Clift.  Described as a backdrop for "City Traffic"  many of the songs on side 1 depict a jazzy bewilderment of being in a big city for the first time.  Side 2 starts with "Stop Press" and things turn psychotic and murdurous with dark spy jazz.  Standouts for me are, "Documentation" with its incredible drumming and "To Fly The Canyon" with its beautiful recording.  So enjoy this from my personal collection and leave comments if you dig.

Peter Thomas & Sten Clift "Sound Music Album No.2" Golden Ring 1973 Rip @320K


      Great early library record from Peter Thomas & Sten Clift on the obscure German label, Golden Ring.  Peter Thomas pretty much dominated the early Sound Music Albums and I'm glad for it, everything from space age spy jazz to psych funk.  This one sticks mostly to the jazz side, with incredible drumming, muted bass and brass but does get pretty out there on side 2.  The drumming is the standout for me, similar to Hansson & Karlsson recordings or UK band, Broadcast.  The beautiful, "Alien Lands" or the psychotic, "Corruption" are definite standouts but I can't forget the outer space explorations of, "Galaxy Fall Out."  So please enjoy this from my personal collection @320K and don't forget to leave a comment.  Thanks, Chris Tillotson         GET IT HERE!

Chimei Watanabe "Battle Fever J" OST 1979 Columbia CX-7183 Anime Funk Grail!

Highly sought after japanese record here from Chimei Watanabe. Nothing too weird, just great funk music! Endless beats and stabs perfectly on point.  Battle Fever J was the third entry in the "Super Sentai" series franchise, which aired from 1979 to 1980 and is very similiar to the power rangers or something.  They might have battle fever but this gives me dance fever and that cover, yes! So enjoy another from my personal collection @320K and don't forget to leave a comment, if you dig. Chris Tillotson                   GET IT HERE!

Masato Shimon "Brave Raideen" OST- BGM Columbia CX-7003 Rip@320K Japanese Anime Psych Funk

Amazing unkown rare record here, tons of funk beats, brass and balls, all done with a spy chase vibe.  All these Nippon Columbia BGM records were made so well, with thick cardboard, full detailed inserts and heavy vinyl, it's hard to believe any of their quality being less than VG+, even 30 years later.  Luckily most of mine still have the OBI strip still attached as well, because the advertisements on the back have become a sort of wish list for me.  I've still seen some ridiculously low prices on this record, so if you see one, swoop it up while you still can!  From my personal collection rip@320K Enjoy!
