Eloy discography [1971-2023] (FLAC)

 

Taking their name from the "Eloi", the futuristic race of people in H.G. Wells' The Time Machine, ELOY was initially formed in 1969 in Germany. Inspired by THE SHADOWS and THE BEATLES, they became one of the major bands in the progressive rock scene highly influenced by the space rock of PINK FLOYD. They started off in Germany as a hard rock band with a political bent, but soon drifted into a spacier progressive rock sound. They have had a number of turnovers, with a major split in the 1980s that resulted in a move into more of a mainstream direction. Based mainly on founder Frank BORNEMANN's guitar solos, their music evolved to include more synthesizers and choirs.

The Rolling Stones - Satanic Sessions - Volume One, Two & Three (4+4+4 CD, 1997)

The infamous Midnight Beat 4-disc boxed sets, Satanic Sessions is an obsessive's dream. Documenting the sessions for "Their Satanic Majesties Request" and the associate singles, the box takes listeners through multiple (and often abortive) instrumental takes of songs both released and unreleased. Because these generally aren't the final takes, few have the additional overdubs that would be added at subsequent multitrack stages, although "Citadel" (which is present in its near-finished final instrumental take) is a welcome exception. The set ends with several takes of "Jigsaw Puzzle," which of course would not be released in completed form until "Beggars Banquet." Quality is absolutely stellar throughout.

Widespread Panic - Porch Songs releases [ 2009-2017] (320)

 In December 2009, Widespread Panic began releasing 2-track soundboard recordings of various archived shows. Because soundboard recordings are less time-consuming than multi-tracks, this project, named Porch Songs, allows the band to deliver show recordings in a timely fashion while they continue to release 3–4 multi-track recordings a year.

 Yes, Friends And Relatives is a compilation album of solo material, released in 1998 by Yes. It was followed in 2000 by Yes, Friends And Relatives Vol. 2.
