New #review today: "#Krokofant is on their sixth album now, though it’s my first encounter with the band from Norway. 6 shows a highly talented and original band with a distinctive take on the combination of #jazz and rock. Their music is relentlessly energetic, with the kind of momentum that #MahavishnuOrchestra had in their early days, but their compositions are more reminiscent of #SoftMachine at times." #ExposeOnline #JazzRock http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/krokofant-6-2.html

New #review today: "When I hear a #JazzRock band of the more energetic variety that has a prominent violin, the first thing I think of is #MahavishnuOrchestra. #GalacticCowboyOrchestra has been around for a while, but Lost in the Numbers is my first encounter with this group based in Minneapolis." #ExposeOnline #ArtRock #ProgressiveRock #Fusion http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/galactic-cowboy-orchestra-lost-in-the-numbers-2.html

I haven’t listened to Birds of Fire in years, maybe decades! The title track at first seemed just crazy. No holds barred, turned up to 11. But the more I listened, the deeper into it I got. This album needs to be heard in its entirety. The climactic track, One Word, damn! A true #fusion classic. #JohnMcLaughlin #MahavishnuOrchestra #Nowplaying #jazz #vinyl
