Glenn Branca —
Ascension ... LP 
99 Records/Superior Viaduct, Early 80s. New Copy (reissue)... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A masterpiece of new music for guitar from the legendary Glenn Branca – a set that both draws on all the minimal experiments on the New York scene of the 70s, and the big wave of underground music at the end of the decade! Branca effortlessly fuses the rock and compositional communities here ... (Out Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Obscure/Superior Viaduct, 1975. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 28.99
An early moment of genius from composer Gavin Bryars – and a set that was issued on Brian Eno's Obscure Records label in the mid 70s, which ensured that Bryars' music found a larger audience outside the realm of avant classical! That turns out to be a good thing here, as the music here is ... (Out Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Obscure/Superior Viaduct, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 29.98
One of the earliest albums ever from Harold Budd – an artist who'd later rise to great ambient fame in the following decade, but who's maybe at his most sophisticated here! The set has all the hallmark of the new musical experiments that Brian Eno was showcasing on his Obscure Music label ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Philips/Superior Viaduct, 1979. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 29.99 About November 22, 2024
Sublime minimal sounds from Italian composer Robert Cacciapaglia – a record we'd rank right up there with the 70s best from Terry Riley, Steve Reich, and Philip Glass! Cacciapaglia follows in a tradition begun by other Italian modernists – like Giusto Pio and Franco Battiatto – ... (Out Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album
PDU/Superior Viaduct, 1975. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 29.99 About November 22, 2024
A rich blend of Italian avant and prog sounds from the early 70s – and overall, a relatively serious piece of work from Roberto Cacciapaglia! The format somewhat echoes Cacciapaglia's earlier experiments with Franco Battiato – in that it's a rock-informed, compositionally-constructed ... (Out Sound) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Superior Viaduct, 1979. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99 22.99
A punky funky no wave classic from James White – working here under the name of The Contortions, in a manner that's very similar to his Off White album! The tunes dip, turn, and kind of groove with a mad sort of art school energy – shifting easily between fast and frenetic playing, and ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Cluster —
Zuckerzeit ... LP Brain/Superior Viaduct, 1974. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A slightly sweeter version of Cluster than on previous records – a bit more focused, tuneful, and rhythmic – thanks to some great use of the "rhythmusmaschine"! Most numbers here have a slightly pulsating feel – one that really prefaces the electronic modes that would ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
SST/Superior Viaduct, 1983. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 29.99
Fast and loud sounds from The Dicks – an Austin band, but one who released this killer classic during the glory days of SST Records – as a set that could easily go head to head with the most hardcore work on the LA scene! The set shares plenty with its labelmates' efforts – a ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Ex/Superior Viaduct, 1984. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $27.99 32.99
Dutch revolutionaries The Ex at a high point of an incredible early run – rolling into the mid 80s with a fiery double album! By this point they had a strong blueprint for their sound and style – steady propulsive rhythms that roll to hypnotic effect, sing-speak vocals that work as ...

Ex —
Pokkeherrie (with poster & booklet) ... LP Superior Viaduct/Ex, 1985. New Copy (reissue)... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Another dynamite effort from The Ex! By 1985 the Dutch collective had their jackhammer guitar and sharp, intelligent lyrical roar honed to a precise, tense science – and it's at this point that they really started allowing the tribal, earthy percussion that would later help define the groove ...

Flaming Tunes —
Flaming Tunes ... LP Superior Viaduct, 1985. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A record that really defies any easy description – and a project that was done by Gareth Williams after leaving This Heat – put together with the sonic intensity of that groundbreaking group – but with all these other elements besides its trademark percussion! Instead, there's ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Glaxo Babies —
Put Me On The Guest List (with bonus tracks) ... CD 
Superior Viaduct, 1978/1979. Used ... Out Of Stock
A pretty amazing batch of early Glaxo Babies recordings – demos made before their debut Nine Months To The Disco, when Rob Chapman was still in the band – and they were much different band after he split! They're working in a more song based, jagged guitar mode here, but still with the ... (Rock) read more CD
IPS/Superior Viaduct, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... $23.99 27.99
One of the rarest albums ever from percussionist Milford Graves, and one of the most intense as well – a completely unbridled live performance that features saxes from Hugh Glover and Arthur Doyle!

Xpressway/Superior Viaduct, 1989. New Copy (reissue)... $12.99 24.99
Some of the trippiest work ever issued by New Zealand's Peter Gutteridge – music that's much more spare and spooky than his work with The Clean and The Chills – and which has a freaky fuzzy quality that's somewhere in a space between Suicide and Spacemen 3! The album was originally ... (Rock) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Joe McPhee —
Black Magic Man ... LP Hat Hut/Superior Viaduct, 1970. New Copy (reissue)... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A late 70s album issued by Hat Art Records, right during the time that the great Joe McPhee was finally getting the international attention he deserved – but music with much earlier origins, as the sounds within were all originally recorded during the same sessions as his Nation Time album ...

Hat Hut/Superior Viaduct, 1977. New Copy (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
A mindblowingly beautiful set of solo tenor tracks by Joe McPhee – a record that's almost as important to that instrument as Anthony Braxton's For Alto set was for the alto sax! The record features just Joe blowing, and nothing else – stretching out in open space, and slowly exploring ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Joe McPhee —
Willisau Concert ... LP Hat Hut/Superior Viaduct, 1975. New Copy (reissue)... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A beautiful set of live improvisations from reedman Joe McPhee – recorded early in his time with the Hat Hut label – at a concert in Willisau, Switzerland – already showing Joe's strong relationship with the European scene!

Benchmark dub by Scientist – and introduction to a truly pivotal figure!

Suburban Lawns ... LP IRS/Superior Viaduct, 1981. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock

Edition X/Superior Viaduct, 1969. New Copy ... $16.99
