Jean Rollin, French, Soft-core, Porn, Cult, Rare; DVD - Ex Used condition
There are all too few refined flesh-fests that so pleasantly revive both the somnolent spirit and other more corporeal appendages than Jean Rollin's perfectly pulchritudinous exploration of epicurean exotica, and, happily, very little is left to the imagination therefore giving the more avidly skin-seeking celluloid sensualist a ringside seat to some of the moist sublime B-Movie burlesque this silken side of Joseph Sarno and that mercurial misfit of majestic midnight cinema Jess Franco. Aside from enjoying these uniquely edifying visions of Gallic Grindhouse's finest felines, including delicious Jean Rollin Alumni Joelle Coeur, titillating terror twins Catherine & Marie-Pierre Castel, and the delightfully elfin Annie 'Lips of Blood' Belle. The supremely slinky, never less than funky lounge funk by groove-master Rex Hilton is persistently perfect sleazy listening. Jean Rollin's 'Tout le monde il deux' is a bold and bountiful B-Movie bacchanal without an iota of decency, praise be!

Sun Ra, Afro-futurism, Jazz, Free Jazz, Psychedelic, Historic, Documentary, Avant-garde; Paperback Book (314 pages) 2020 - New
Sun Ra (1914–93) was one of the most wildly prolific and unfailingly eccentric figures in the history of music. Renowned for extravagant performances in which his Arkestra appeared in neo-Egyptian garb, the keyboardist and bandleader also espoused an interstellar cosmology that claimed the planet Saturn as his true home. In Sun Ra’s Chicago, William Sites brings this visionary musician back to earth—specifically to the city’s South Side, where from 1946 to 1961 he lived and relaunched his career. The postwar South Side was a hotbed of unorthodox religious and cultural activism: Afrocentric philosophies flourished, storefront prophets sold “dream-book bibles,” and Elijah Muhammad was building the Nation of Islam. It was also an unruly musical crossroads where the man then known as Sonny Blount drew from an array of intellectual and musical sources—from radical nationalism, revisionist Christianity, and science fiction to jazz, blues, Latin dance music, and pop exotica—to construct a philosophy and performance style that imagined a new identity and future for African Americans. Sun Ra’s Chicago shows that late twentieth-century Afrofuturism emerged from a deep, utopian engagement with the city—and that by excavating the postwar black experience of Sun Ra’s South Side milieu, we can come to see the possibilities of urban life in new ways.

Darby Crash, The Germs, LA Punk, Los Angeles, Punk, Adam Parfrey; Paperback Book - Ex Used condition
Lexicon Devil provides a powerful, unflinching look at the life and times of Darby Crash of The Germs, using first person accounts to tell the story. And a tragic, but exciting story it is. The reader gets a first-hand look at Punk’s west coast birth, its ascendancy, and decline. All this is embodied in the story of Darby Crash, a man (or kid, really, dying young at 22, not even close to the 27 Club) of great vision, recklessness, and inner torment. Darby Crash is neither sainted nor vilified, a tough balance to strike. At the end, one is struck with a sense of the lost potentials, the regrets of friends and acquaintances that wish they had done more to save him.
"Lexicon Devil is, pure and simple, the finest volume on punk to have seen the light of print. (Yes, folks: that includes Please Kill Me.) Great book!"—Richard Meltzer
Melbourne, Electronic, Experimental, Minimal, Synth, Cleopatra Records, Rare, Sacred Cowboys, Cybotron, Einsturzende Neubauten - Ex original used condition.... Rare and awesome!
The Metronomes were an obscure legendary minimal synth band from Australia. The group was an integral part of the early electronic music scene in Australia and their releases have become collector's items in Europe, as they are mostly impossible to find. The Metronomes first appeared in Melbourne in 1979 and initial members were rock journo/synth player Al Webb, bass player Andrew Picouleau (Secret Police, Sacred Cowboys) and synth-pioneer Ash Wednesday, nowadays a live tour member of Einstürzende Neubauten. Al himself will admit later that Ash's ingenuity in creating something out of very little was the key to the Metronomes sounding as "produced" as they did. The first full-length Multiple Choice was recorded in the winter of 1980, using Roland Strings, a mini-Korg, some Arp synthesizers and a Boss Dr-55 -- a drum machine that was intensively used by many minimal synth bands during the '80s.

Russell Haswell joins Philip Best's Consumer Electronics for the face-melting force of 'Estuary Electronics'. Following on from the Mattin-produced 'Crowd Pleaser' (2009), it finds the pioneering duo at their most virile and vital across seven tracks rife with sputtering tech-n0!se and, of course, Best's spray it, don't say it delivery. It's a cruel, vicious fucker and therein lies its charm in showing up most of their field as dilettantes. Between the flatulent jag of 'Teknon' to the staggering, 'floor bleaching force of 'Co-opted' or the 'Air Lock' monologue that seals the final side, it delivers visceral thrills in a way most others can't compete with. And it's all the more powerful for its reduced and optimised palette - vocals, spatter drums and eviscerated electronics stoically delivered with real venom where it matters. For adventurous DJs, proper wrong 'uns, and the noise brigade, it's stone cold essential.
