Jose Rogerio - Solombra (LP)
Xenophon INT 146002, 1980 Germany Really enjoyed the Danca Das Gaivotas album by Jose Rogerio but this one is even better in my books. The ambient O Farol e a Mariposa is a true beauty and the vocal piece Carregamento makes you wonder why Jose did not...

Garry Blake - Extra Stereo (LP)
Hör Zu SHZEL 90, 197? Germany Not the first time I have crossed paths with this oddball release as the cover of Morricone's Good, Bad & Ugly is great sample material but the clubby tunes are Tequila and Aquarius. Nice puppet cover art as well.
