Brainville is a collaboration between Shimmy Disc founder Kramer and three of the legends of Canterbury rock, Gong founder Daevid Allen, Soft Machine bassist Hugh Hopper, and Pip Pyle, who drummed for Gong, Hatfield and the North, and National Health. Despite three of the musicians having made their names during the psychedelic and progressive rock eras, the band's music has a contemporary sound. Kramer collaborated with both Allen and Hopper on two albums each and so it was only a matter of time before he collaborated with both at once.

A document of historical importance or just 3 or 4 kids badly recorded bashing and sawing away at guitars to little effect. Considering what became of these lads these early recordings are rubbish, the best of them already appearing on the Beatles Anthology volume 1…

The orchestra of German director Max Greger, a large dance music stylist, carefully decorated with rhythmic precision taste of their performances. In this album collects 14 tracks under the misleading title of 'Greger In Rio', as best it could have been titled 'Greger in South America' or 'Greger latino'. The songs run between danceable rhythms of bolero, cha-cha, samba and paso doble.Nice selection of music to practice on the dance floor or to enjoy relaxing moments with a pleasant hearing.

The easy listening music was among its greatest players in the 60s American violinist and director Herman Clebanoff (Chicago, 1917-2004) and his string orchestra, 'Clebanoff Strings'. This album provides very successful arrangements, which in some cases reminiscent of Percy Faith or Mancini.

It takes a certain sort of band to fill Wembley stadium, one unafraid to embrace scale, flirt with pomposity, and perform the odd grand gesture. Watching Muse's live CD/DVD H.A.A.R.P recorded over two nights in June 2007 you're left wondering if Wembley is quite big enough to hold them. From the grand opening, when Muse ascend from an underground chamber and walk down a central ramp flanked by men in yellow chemical splash suits to Matt Bellamy's lengthy, florid turns at the grand piano, no opportunity is missed to make H.A.A.R.P seem anything less than a spectacle.

Philips's repackaging of Gardiner's sophisticated Mozart symphonies offers all the usual qualities of period instruments: the immediacy of gut strings and reduced-vibrato articulation, rustic sounding woodwind, precariously exciting natural brass and the unmistakable 'thwack' of hard sticks on the timpani. Taken individually, the five discs are not, alas, of equal merit. David Wilkins
