64  Spoons 'Landing on a Rat Column' Review
Once memorably described as ' Stravinsky meets the Baron Knights ' 64 spoons were the unlikely marriage  of jazz, rock, pop, prog & punk all appearing in a  surreal 'Carry On' movie. This album goes some way to  explaining how, but not why?<

Rapid Eye Movement
Rapid  Eye Movement
No not Michael Stipe's group of virtually the same name  but the English Canterbury alternative that predated them by  some years. Dave Stewart on Keyboards, Pip  Pyle on drums and Rick Biddulph on bass. Some  recordings were started and a number of live tapes are  around. Jakko has had tentative discussion with Dave with  regard to making an album out of these  snippets.<

Level 42 at Crystal PalaceLevel 42
Level  42
Whilst Jakko played with the band from early 1991 till  their demise his recorded output is scant due to a  combination of timing and politics'. However various live  tracks did appear as bonus recordings on various singles as  well as some newly recorded studio material. There is a 'Guaranteed' tour video available and the band's last  tour was recorded at both Brighton Dome and The Albert Hall for a subsequent live album which still  has yet to materialise.
