Impulse/Superior Viaduct, 1966. New Copy (reissue)... $22.99 25.99 On June 9, 2023
One of the first big moments of Albert Ayler's work in the jazz mainstream – and a record that doesn't dim his greatness at all from the earlier sides recorded for ESP! The album's got a sharply angular sound that more than lives up to its vibrant cover image – a well-honed approach to ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Obscure/Superior Viaduct, 1975. New Copy ... $15.99 16.99
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 CD

Pavilion Of Dreams ... LP Obscure/Superior Viaduct, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock

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!

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
Superior Viaduct, Late 70s. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99 22.99
A sonic juggernaut from Crime – and a set that marks a much-needed addition to their too-few records from the late 70s!

Fantastic early work from The Fall – some key singles issued by the Rough Trade label as 45s during the first few years of the group – already a great showcase for the mad wit of Mark E Smith!

Ananda/Superior Viaduct, 1977. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99
An amazingly weird little record – and we mean that in the best possible way – work served up by an all-vocal quartet who seem to draw from ancient Eastern styles, yet deliver their music with a 70s avant sensibility!
