For some reason we've been going through a phase of getting Russian stuff, like last week we picked up from the boot sale a haul of records from the old Soviet Bloc. This Wednesday we also got a book on Cacti also in Russian. From the 70's and with that old period charm of poverty and despair that a failed ideology creates. Nevertheless it has its charms, and for some reason zero copyright info in the inside label. So will have to get my big scanning hat on and upload this.
You'll want to know the records, and as I've a backlog to hack through I've only done two at the moment. One is based on Chinese Horoscope and is a mix of rock, pop and some odd electronica. You can find its discogs link. Here My personal pick is the weird one about a dog.
The other so far listened to is Free Jazz which is pure Wire readers style wankery. But it has a few saving graces in that there is some nice flute bits before the piano and brass overwhelm it.
If you care it can be found here My personal pick is either B1 or A1. Also note. This seems to be non Russian looks like its one of the Baltic stats either Latvian or Lithuanian. No Cyrillic for one. Oh one last thing the sleeve it came in is for something else entirely
I'll add more in the weeks to come.
Update.
Had one more to listen to.
This one is for the prog rock fans as there is quite a bit of guitar noodling on this and not much synth only stuff, despite their being a Prophet 5 listed as the instruments used.
