Stoned Innocent Frankenstein (CD)

Release date not set.

Unreleased mixes and versions. A 'Camembert Eclectique' job for Bananamoon. Stunning unreleased mixes and totally radical head-altering versions unheard for over 30 years. Robert Wyatt's drumming more obvious on a couple of the tracks is amazing. It does make you wonder whether the correct 'final' mix was sent to the pressing plant - no they wouldn't have got that wrong, would they?. With a annotated and illustrated booklet.

Here & Now
Off The Cuff v.1 (CD)

Re-mastering in progress...

Re-mastered live '79 recordings. 'Off The Cuff' was Here & Now's first live tape release sold only at gigs and by limited mail-order. Using the original tapes Steffe is bringing this classic of live festival space rock jamming, recorded during UK free tours throughout '79 into the digital age. The resulting sound quality is apparently astounding. To be further expanded with previously unreleased material from the same tours.

Zorch
Retrospective (CD)

Re-mastered studio recordings, hovering in the twilight zone...

Some of the best mid-70's synth sounds you (n)ever heard. There is a crying need for the definitive Zorch retrospective. There are a limited number of photographs of the band back then (do you have any?). So with a few pages of considered writing the definitive Zorch retrospective CD set almost compiles itself. Messrs Zepix and Brooks, off with those hyper-critical sunglasses, banish those fears and stand rightly unabashed in the spotlight of history. Previous releases: Live at Glastonbury (CD), Ouroborus (CD)

Lady June and Mark Hewins
Rebela (CD)

Studio recordings languishing on a shelf - no idea if this will ever see the light of day.

A glorious Canterbury melange. Final mistress-work of the late and much missed Lady June, brought into musical being by Mark Hewins. Guests include daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth, Theo Travis, Keith tha Bass, Mike Howlett, John Greaves, the late Pip Pyle and Elton Dean, plus many more. A stunning range of music with a 'modern' mythological libretto.
