1	Third [Remastered/Bonus CD] (1970) more music like this by Soft Machine Soft Machine plunged deeper into jazz and contemporary electronic music on this pivotal release, which incited The Village Voice to call it a milestone achievement when it was released. The original vinyl release was a double album of stunning music, with each side devoted to one composition -- two by Mike Ratledge, and one each by Hugh Hopper and ... see all copies from $11.40! new only from $11.40!
2	The Great Deceiver, Vol. 2 (2007) more music like this by King Crimson It may not be in the same form but at the very least it is available again. In 1992, Robert Fripp, in association with Caroline Records, released The Great Deceiver (Live 1973-1974). It was a lavish four-CD box, packaged in a long box with an amazing book that exceeded all previous efforts to document their live offerings. In contrast, the ... see all copies from $17.41! new only from $17.41!
3	The First Decade (2003) more music like this by California Guitar Trio see all copies from $8.44! new only from $15.59!
4	Exposure [Bonus CD] (2006) more music like this by Robert Fripp Robert Fripp's only proper solo album, Exposure, has a tortured history that reflects everything Fripp loves about the creative process of making music and everything he despises about the music industry in microcosm. Fripp had walked away from music in 1974, following yet another dissolution of King Crimson and the mounting headaches of fame, ... see all copies from $16.03! new only from $16.03!
5	THRAK (1995) more music like this by King Crimson The only progressive rock band from the '60s to be making new, vital, progressive music in the '90s, King Crimson returned from a ten-year exile in 1995 with THRAK, their first album since 1984's 3 of a Perfect Pair. As with the '80s band, guitarist/ringleader Robert Fripp recruited singer/guitarist Adrian Belew, bassist Tony Levin, and drummer ... see all copies from $3.79! new only from $7.00!

It was a lavish four-CD box, packaged in a long box with an amazing book that exceeded all previous efforts to document their live offerings. In contrast, the ... see all copies from $14.02! new only from $17.41!
7	Casablanca Moon/Desperate Straights (1999) more music like this by Slapp Happy Avant popsters Slapp Happy get the two-fer treatment from Virgin on this 1999 CD. The first 11 tracks were originally released in 1974 as the group's eponymously titled Virgin label debut (and are not the same versions of the tunes recorded earlier with Faust, first intended for release by Polydor, and ultimately issued by Recommended Records -- ... see all copies from $11.44! new only from $15.28!
8	Plague Songs [4AD] (2006) more music like this by Various Artists Plague Songs is an unusual collection of songs corresponding to the ten Biblical plagues as revealed in the book of Exodus in the Old Testament. The set was conceived by Penny Woolcock, who used the songs (performed in her filmic retelling of the Exodus), as reflected and refracted through the seaside resort area of Margate-in-Kent in southern ... see all copies from $13.80! new only from $13.80!
9	Silent Corner and the Empty Stage [Bonus Tracks] (2007) more music like this by Peter Hammill Like In Camera, The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage was originally released during 1974 (it is a remarkable and occasionally startling thing to realize that prior to 1980, rock musicians -- as well as in other genres -- issued two and sometimes three albums in a single year), although it is a very different recording. Released as part of the ... see all copies from $14.71! new only from $14.71!
10	In Glorious Times (2007) more music like this by Sleepytime Gorilla Museum In Glorious Times' second song, "Helpless Corpses Enactment," is either straight-ahead death metal, complete with Cookie Monster growls, or an utterly straight-faced parody of same; the fact that it's well-nigh impossible to tell one way or the other pretty much sums up Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. The Oakland quintet's fourth studio album maintains ... see all copies from $13.15! new only from $13.15!

12 view cover	For (2007) more music like this by The Claudia Quintet The Claudia Quintet always keep one guessing. From drone pieces to quiet sound explorations, from passionate interplay to ensembles that seem lighter than air, this group has always had its own musical identity. Ted Reichman's accordion adds a lot to the unique ensembles, as does Matt Moran's vibraphone. Bassist Drew Gress and drummer/composer ... see all copies from $15.07! new only from $15.07!
13 view cover	Grand Opening and Closing [Bonus Tracks] (2006) more music like this by Sleepytime Gorilla Museum There are quite a few similarities between Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and Mr. Bungle. Both acts hailed from the West Coast (the former from Oakland, the latter from Eureka), both include multiple bandmembers, and Bungle guitarist Trey Spruance released SGM's 2004 release, Of Natural History, via his Web of Mimicry label. But the most apparent ... see all copies from $13.48! new only from $13.48!
14 view cover	Semi-Formal (2005) more music like this by The Claudia Quintet The Claudia Quintet utilize unusual rhythmic patterns, creative repetitions, and such instruments as accordion, vibes, and clarinet to create a dramatic set of music. As much a soundtrack for a nonexistent movie as it is a jazz set, the music on Semi-Formal is quite cinematic, moody, and thoroughly intriguing. Although some of the individual ... see all copies from $13.64! new only from $13.64!
15 view cover	Exposure (1979) more music like this by Robert Fripp Conceived as the third part of an MOR trilogy that included Peter Gabriel's second album and Daryl Hall's Sacred Songs, Exposure is concerned with a marketplace that Fripp saw as hostile to experimentation and hungry for product. Strangely, then, Exposure is one of his most varied and successful rock albums, offering a broad selection of styles. ... see all copies from $15.00! new only from $29.95!
16 view cover	Third (1970) more music like this by Soft Machine The Soft Machine plunged deeper into jazz and contemporary electronic music on this pivotal release, which incited the Village Voice to call it a milestone achievement when it was released. It's a double album of stunning music, with each side devoted to one composition -- two by Mike Ratledge, and one each by Hopper and Wyatt, with substantial ... see all copies from $5.11! new only from $5.11!
17 view cover	Drugs to the Dear Youth (2007) more music like this by Tera Melos After an glitchy opening track, "Ambassadors of All That Is Good," that makes Drugs to the Dear Youth sound at first like some form of ambient turntablism exercise, the second album by Tera Melos turns into a fairly standard take on the more aggressive side of instrumental post-rock experimentalism. Jagged spurts of alternately fuzz-toned and ... see all copies from $8.88! new only from $8.88!
18 view cover	The Coalition of the Willing (2006) more music like this by Bobby Previte Bobby Previte has been full of surprises during his long and quirky career as a musician's musician. Whether playing swing, hard bop, or vanguard free jazz, or playing electronic drums and keyboards in space-age jams with Charlie Hunter, he's never failed to ignite whatever project he's been part of. Coalition of the Willing is a different animal ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $14.56!
19 view cover	Attahk (1990) more music like this by Magma After Üdü Wüdü, Magma disbanded for a time, only to reconvene a year later under a slightly different direction than before. While drummer Christian Vander had maintained general leadership of the band since the early '70s, this new phase of Magma could almost be considered a Vander solo project. His interest in funk, R&B, gospel, and pop would ... see all copies from $13.53! new only from $14.11!
20 view cover	Tráfico (2006) more music like this by Think of One Finally, after seven albums beginning with 1998's Juggernaut, Flemish avant-world funksters and rhythm-aholics Think of One have an album distributed in the United States (thanks to Crammed and Rykodisc): 2006's Tráfico. For those unfamiliar with the band's wanderings, Think of One are apt to turn up recording with indigenous musicians practically ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.49!
21 view cover	The Danubians (2000) more music like this by The Danubians With members of the (Ec) Nudes, Pluto, and Kampec Dolores in presence, one expects to hear avant-rock songs and that's what the Danubians do. Although their music never reaches the level of intensity any of the former bands can deliver, it remains more accessible to casual listeners. The Danubians have roots in American (Amy Denio), Czech (Pavel ... see all copies from $7.49! new only from $15.30!
22 view cover	Joint Happening (2007) more music like this by Mushroom/Eddie Gale The notion and spirit of musical collaboration by established artists is such that different parties bring what strengths they have to offer to a given project, and then allow for their own abilities and preconceptions to be stretched -- sometimes to the breaking point -- by the rest of those involved. This is even truer when considering a project ... see all copies from $13.51! new only from $13.51!

24 view cover	In Stormy Nights (2007) more music like this by Ghost Japan's Ghost has always been a truly enigmatic kind of rock band. From the beginning, they've only recorded when they felt it was necessary, and only when they had something utterly new to say. In other words, there isn't a set Ghost sound. They turn themselves inside out on each recording, and no two sound the same. In Stormy Nights is no ... see all copies from $13.89! new only from $13.89!
25 view cover	1983 (1999) more music like this by Von Zamla 1983 is an impressive album of previously unavailable, professional live recordings (the sound is as good as a studio recording) of Von Zamla's 1983 spring tour, which the band regards as among some of their most successful performances. This is the first time any Von Zamla works have been released in the U.S., and it's an especially timely ... see all copies from $13.70! new only from $13.70!
