Joe Meek & The Blue Men - I Hear a New World, Valley Of the Saroos, Magnetic Field, Orbit Around The Moon and Love Dance Of The Saroos
From a 1991 expansion of the 1960 studio concept album (originally released merely as a four song EP in its original time due to apprehensions over the music’s commercial appeal, or so I gather) β€œI Hear A New World”, produced by the late English (From Newent, Gloucestershire) record proudcer and songwriter with the aforementioned British backing group. An early studio record, it is considered highly innovative and imaginative in its field, pioneering a mix of experimental, space-age Pop with Electronic music and elements of Rock and Roll. Joe Meek was fascinated by the space programme, believing there to be life out there on other planets. Its intentionally strange and out-there sound owes to, in Meek’s own words, his attempt β€œto create a picture in music of what could be up there in outer space”. As such, among the exotic electronic bleeps and bloops and scattered Rock and Roll performances are interspersed with both normal and sped-up vocals, the latter sounding very much like something out of Alvin and the Chipmunks. The album’s mixture of daring musical pursuits would go on to become an influence on the Psychedelic music movement that was to follow in the ensuing years of the 1960s.
Tragically, Meek (who was a Bipolar-Schizophrenic and a homosexual during a time when homosexual acts were considered illegal in the UK), died in 1967 in a murder-suicide; he shot the landlady of his flat using a single-barreled shotgun he confiscated from his protege Heinz Burt, after which he turned the gun on himself.
Despite any controversy, Joe Meek remains a giant in the world of Pop and Rock music many decades later for his outstanding contributions.

Andy Summers & Robert Fripp - I Advance Masked, China - Yellow Leader, New Marimba, Hardy Country and Still Point
From the first collaborative album by the two English guitarists, β€œI Advance Masked” (1968). Andy Summers was most famous as the lead guitarist of the Police, and Robert Fripp was the bandleader of King Crimson. Both of them have been friends since the 1960s, and on this album, their guitar prowess mingles beautifully with their mastery of other instruments, forming a sound that can be described as electronic ambient and avant-garde, with touches of Jazz and Rock sensibilities. I’d describe this album as pretty much like β€œpainting on a canvas, but with musical instruments” in place of the brushes.
Cool stuff!
Summers himself described it himself thusly:
β€œ β€œa synthesis of two guys who grew up playing guitar, heard the Beatles, listened to jazz, have been influenced by Oriental music and Steve Reich, but still happen to be playing in a rock context. Every track started the same way, just two guitars. On some of them I played a little bass or put on a bit of percussion or string synthesizer. There are no drums but you don’t miss them. Some of it is very accessible and some is very avant-garde”

Grave Altar - Intro*, Black Wings Of Wrath, Death, Angel Crypt and Rites Of Mayhem
From the second and most recent album by the English (Formed in Bristol, later based in the West Midlands) Black/Thrash metal band, β€œShrines Of Hatred”.
*This may just be an ambient start to the album with a generic title, but it’s perfectly dark and chilly that I had to include this in my picks!
Plus, though I had an okay time at work, I saw an article online (News, natch) shorly before clocking out that made me feel incensed enough that I almost wanted to smash something. Almost. This album is a better alternative, and I’m glad I didn’t go with the former. lol

The Kinks - Wall Of Fire, Don’t, Over The Edge, Hatred (A Duet)*, Surviving** and Close To The Wire
From the 24th and final album by the English (From London, formed in 1963) Rock group, β€œPhobia” (1993)
The Kinks went on to release one more live album in 1996, breaking up the following year. The brothers/band founders Ray and Dave famously had a complicated and often fractious relationship. They tried many times to settle their differences, including during a 2018-2023 period in which their relationship had mostly repaired and, after playing together as guests for each others’ respective solo performances, they attempted to revive the band for a brand new album. This unfortunately hasn’t come to pass, as Ray and Dave couldn’t agree on a direction for the album lineup and tour (Ray wanted a legacy tour featuring a revolving door of different living ex-Kinks including original drummer Mick Avory, while Dave wanted a simpler and more current lineup focusing mostly on he and Ray. Dave also always had a dislike for Mick). At the moment, a full reunion really seems unlikely. It’s a shame, as the Kinks were truly unique.
*A vocal duet between Ray and Dave
**The title for me pretty much reflects my hopeful plan for the rest of this and the following next three years, what with the current sociopolitical climate and all…
