The Mystery Of The Bulgarian Voices - Pora Sotunda (2017)


The Mystery Of The Bulgarian Voices
Pora Sotunda 7'' vinyl, featuring Lisa Gerrard
(2017)

"Pora Sotunda" is a brand new very limited 7” by the cult band The Mystery Of The Bulgarian Voices featuring Dead Can Dance vocalist Lisa Gerrard. "Pora Sotunda" is the first release of new material by the choir written in over 20 years. Included on this single are the tracks "Pora Sotunda" and "Ganka". The single is released in a limited edition 7" vinyl format only, and is sure to become a sought-after collector's item. It precedes the release of a forthcoming The Mystery Of The Bulgarian Voices album scheduled for early 2018. The choir became famous after the English independent record label 4AD reissued a pair of anthology albums in 1986 and 1988 with the title "Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares". The choir is not a newbee as it has recordings dating back as far as 1957. 4AD founder Ivo Watts-Russell had been introduced to the choir via a third or fourth generation cassette lent to him by Peter Murphy, singer from the band Bauhaus, who himself had been entranced by the music.

Still Alive!




On December 31, 1977, The Ramones played a classic show at the Rainbow Theatre in North London. The music was preserved on the 1979 album "It's Alive", considered by many to be the best live album from the punk era, and a portion of the show was later included in the film "Ramones: It's Alive 1974-1996".


The 26-minute film version (below) contains exactly half of the 28 songs on the album:

01. Blitzkrieg Bop
02. I Wanna Be Well
03. Glad to See You Go
04. You're Gonna Kill That Girl
05. Commando
06. Havana Affair
07. Cretin Hop
08. Listen to My Heart
09. I Don't Wanna Walk Around With You
10. Pinhead
11. Do You Wanna Dance?
12. Now I Wanna Be a Good Boy
13. Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue
14. We're A Happy Family


The set list draws on material from the band's first three albums: "Ramones", from early 1976, and "Leave Home" and "Rocket to Russia", both released in 1977. The Ramones are still in their classic lineup here, including Joey Ramone (Jeffrey Hyman) on vocals, Johnny Ramone (John Cummings) on guitar, Dee Dee Ramone (Douglas Colvin) on bass and Tommy Ramone (Thomas Erdelyi) on drums. Tommy Ramone quit playing drums for the group a few months later. "Ramones: It's Alive" captures one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time at their absolute zenith.


It's a great way to get the New Year's party rolling.
Hey! Ho! Let's Go!
Now, as 40 years ago!

HAPPY NEW 2018.
