    Wow! this LP has doubled in price since I last played it.

    Starting in Chicago, Illinois, Algebra Suicide were active from 1982 to 1994.

    The combination of Lydia Tomkiw's poetry — mostly presented with in deadpan voice — and Don Hedeker's minimal post-punk-influenced guitar with added drum machine and keyboard sequencing won them more critical praise than commercial success.

    They toured Europe twice with added slide projections on stage, networked with many artists and underground tape labels on through the 80's, achieved some awards, ran a now-defunct home page run by Clive Barker of Hellraiser fame, published poetry, and ran Chicago's Link Hall Club.

    Deep Purple - Come Taste the Band - 1975
    With Tommy Bolin just after Ritchie Blackmore left. Been 50 years since I played this. It rocks. I had to dig around to find. Underrated IMO.

    Shylock is a French, instrumental progressive rock trio (who expanded to a quartet) from Nice that were active in the early to mid 1970's. Their very French style also had notable King Crimson influences due to the Frippian guitar of Frédéric L'Épée and expressive Bruford like drum work of André Fisichella, but with the keyboards of Didier Lustig taking the music to original different realms. Guitarist Frédéric L'Épée later played in Philharmonie.
