Patrick Williams - Threshold (1973)



Patrick Williams - Threshold (1973)

When I went to see Frank Zappa at the Civic Center Music Hall in Oklahoma City on 8 October 1975, there was incredible music playing before the show, so I walked over to the soundboard and asked what was playing and it was "Threshold" by Patrick Williams. I went out and bought the album as soon as I could!!!

Enjoy!

Jimmie Spheeris - The Dragon Is Dancing (SIYS Extended Edit) (1975-2010)



Jimmie Spheeris - The Dragon Is Dancing (SIYS Extended Edit) (1975-2010)

Featuring Chick Corea on electric piano & mini moog.

Believe it or not, this gem of a song had never been uploaded to the Internet, so I posted it to Youtube. This is an extended edit that keeps intact the nice harp ending that segues into the beginning of the next track Sighs In A Shell.

ENJOY!

Morpheus - That's Evil Man (Take A Trip) (Freakout Overture / Club Mix) (1992)



Morpheus - That's Evil Man (Take A Trip) (Freakout Overture / Club Mix) (1992)

I own this vinyl EP, but no longer have a working turntable, so I searched for years to find this song online with no luck. Finally, I found a rare copy of the promo CD on eBay and now finally this can be heard online.

I selected what I believe is the best version, the "Freakout Overture / Club Mix" to share here.

ENJOY!
