![Someones Band - Alice (UK Blues Rock&Psychedelic Rock 1970)
English blues rock band, active around 1969-1970. Initially the bands name was spelled as Someones Band without an apostrophe. But in the background notes on the inner gatefold of the 2021 reissue Someones Band - Someones Band, band member Terry Powney recalls It was a mistake leaving off the apostrophe on the album - that was never intentional.

![Mortimer - Where Dragons Guard The Doors (US Psychedelic Pop 1968)
Mortimer evolved out of a later incarnation of the Teddy Boys, from Hyde Park, New York, who recorded a handful of singles for MGM and Cameo Records in 1966 and 1967. They changed their name to Pinocchio & Puppets, for a two-sided instrumental single which was released by Mercury in 1967. The band Guy Masson (vocals, drums, percussion), Bob Ronga (vocals, guitar), Tom Smith (vocals, guitar), and Tony Van Benschoten (vocals, bass, guitar) then settled on the name Mortimer and signed a production deal with U.K. record producer Daniel Secunda (brother of Procol Harum manager Tony Secunda) and his B.B.& D. Productions, Inc. The group got a record deal with Phillips and cut a self-titled album, which was released in 1968. The record was originally recorded with Rongas participation, but after he left the group, his parts were re-done and his image cropped from the album cover. The album didnt make much of a splash and the band soon moved to England, where they turned up at Apple Records in search of a contract. Given George Harrisons blessing when he heard the trio playing in the Apple offices, the band signed up and began work on an album. Produced by Peter Asher, and featuring a song given to them by Paul McCartney (On Our Way Home, which was later retitled Two of Us and released by the Beatles), the record was slated to be released in 1969. Unfortunately for the trio, the record was shelved when Allen Klein took control of Apple and began implementing cost-cutting measures. The group split soon afterward, and remained a mostly forgotten footnote in Beatles history. Some light was shed on the band by Cardinals lovely cover of the 1968 albums Singing in the Sunshine, then the blinds were fully opened by Rev-Olas 2006 re-release of their first album. More than a decade later, their lost Apple album was rescued from oblivion and released by RPM Records.

Arte & Ofício were a Portuguese band from Oporto, found in the summer 75 by Antonio Garcez (vocals) and Sergio Castro (bass).They built a national status through various gigs and massive singles, recorded between 1976-78, and despite some line-up changes they made it to the end of the road, recording the full-length album Faces in 1979 (Discos Orfeu).Garcez and Castro were supported by original drummer Alvaro Azevedo, guitarists Fernando Nascimento, Sergio Cordeiro and keyboardist Antonio Pinho with thr help of Rui Cardoso on sax.Story says they were a pretty unique group, combining elements of Prog Rock, Jazz and Fusion into an attractive amalgam, but things are rather different, as exhibited on Faces.They shared a common love for Jazz, Pop and Funk and that does not necessarilly make their sound progressive.They were a rather radio-friendly band and the only proggy elements found in Faces are limited to some inspiring Gentle Giant-like tunes (as on the very good Lobster society) and most of them recall the wrong period of the band, same goes for some Premiata Forneria Marconi echoes circa-Passpartu.Actually the only consistent thing on this work are the excellent and clean English vocals, because the music is pretty commercial with short, vocal-driven pieces, showered by bluesy guitars, jazzy sax and electric piano and poppy melodies.When Cordeiro and Garcez left the band shortly afterwards, Arte & Ofício lost much of their popularity.Danza from 1981 was even more accesible and less inspiring and they disbanded a couple of years later, performing during the last years with a vastly different crew.

![Dead Sea Fruit - Time Waits For No One (UK Psychedelic Pop, Beat 1967)
In April 1967, Record Mirrors Names & Faces column introduced Dead Sea Fruit. The Dead Sea Fruit used to be known as Some Sloane Squares, their first record is Kensington High Street / Put Another Record On, and theyre on the Camp label, it ran. So far, so good. They are gentlemen who met through an advertisement in the Times, no less. They worked the debutante circuit, making money, then went to the South of France. Theres an LP on the way by this rather unusually talented outfit, which comprises lead vocalist Clive Foster Kennedy, a Freeman of the City of London, lead guitarist David Lashmar, who started up with skiffle, Simon Winsloe Clifford, who plays organ and is a jazz fan, bassist Christopher Hall, who was once a solicitor, and drummer John Errington-Townsend, who used to go to Portsmouth Grammar School (where also went Paul Jones)?
The band had formed the previous year. After briefly being known as Some Sloane Squares, they adopted the more modish moniker Dead Sea Fruit, after a line in Thomas Moores 1817 romantic poem Lalla-Rookh: Like Dead Sea fruits, that tempt the eye / But turn to ashes on the lips! were promptly arrested for wearing carnival clothes on a non-carnival day – though I fact was just their standard hippie attire, Thereafter they found some success playing covers in local clubs, and more widely around; France, A good-humored, highly theatrical act more in the vein of the New Vaudeville Band than their more psychedelic peers, they recorded for the local Disquez A-Z label, and had a big hit with the old-timey Loulou, Put Another Record On To promote it, they made some TV appearances (which can be seen online), involving a strikingly long trumpet invented by Kennedy One appearance was with Salvador Dali.
Back in the UK in early 1967, they signed to the new Polydor offshoot label Camp, who put out their debut single in March. The disc c id not prove a hit, but an album ensued, which appeared in April Dead Sea Fruits first album chalks up the first LP release from Camp Records, and really they neednt have bothered, wrote Disc & Music Echo.
`Musically the group seem to fall somewhere East of Winchester Cathedral and considerably West of Waterloo and its sunsets. They should have got together before making any tapes, and decided what sort of music they were going to play. The album is further distinguished by a nauseatingly pretentious sleeve note. Sales were pool; and the release of their single in the US (on Atlantics Atco subsidiary) in June did nothing to alter their profile. On Friday 30th of that month they supported psychedelic legends Tomorrow at the UFO club in London (along with the Knack), but didnt play many gigs in the UK. They did, however, perform in front of Jimi Hendrix and Paul McCartney in their time. September saw the release of their second and final UK 45, Love At The Hippiedrome / My Naughty Bluebell. Around this time Hall departed, and was replaced by Arthur Marsh. Before long, Kennedy and Clifford decided to return to the UK from their French base, upon which Lashmar, Townsend and Marsh accepted a residency in a club in Dakar, Senegal. However, when it became clear that the club only wanted them to play covers, the band splintered.

![Antares - The Leaving (Italy Crossover Prog 1979)
Not to be confused with the German Symphonic group of the same name, ANTARES was a minor Italian band of the late-seventies that consisted of Marco Tessitore (keyboards, vocals), Joseph Kali (guitars), Ennio Barone (bass, vocals) and Lorenz Shulze (drums, effects, guitars). They released one album, Sea of Tranquillity (1979), a conceptual work based on the Apollo 11 moon landing. Very little is known of the musicians although Antonio Bartoccetti of ANTONIUS REX co-wrote two of the tracks and the album was actually recorded in Oslo. Its a largely instrumental work - the few lyrics are sung in English - that blends mainstream pop with spacey atmospheres and some electronics. Other than the Bartoccetti connection, ANTARES doesnt have a great deal in common with other Italian artists of the period and tends to draw comparisons with ELOY and PINK FLOYD. Sea of Tranquility was reissued on CD by Mellow in 1994.

![Jonathan - Stormy Days (Germany Progressive Electronic&Krautrock 1978)
JONATHAN is a Progressive Electronic band from Germany with one self titled album released in 1978 on Heinz Ulms AAR, and rereleased on Bellaphon Labels. The band consisted of Peter Garrattoni who played drums, and was accompanied by Helmut Grab who played keys and electronics. Helmut focussed on Minimoog, Rhodes, Roland, and Solina. Peter Garattoni also was a part of the project playing drums. They were accompanied by Emil Wirth on bass on Funkys Visit, and Uli Buehl played a Roland synth on Raising Winds, along with Fender Rhodes on Waters and also playing Grand Piano on Moved Earth.
The album is very obscure and has become a curiosity over the years with the front-side being colour artwork, and the backside of the cover being black and-white.
The band is instrumental with keyboards dominating and a synthesizer sound emanating, with some 70s fusion rhythms. The album was sought after by club DJs due to its incredible drum break, swirling Moogs and spacey atmospheres on Li Song.
Peter Garattoni was also a member of Krautrock band EULENSPYGEL, and later hard rockers REBEL and heavy metal outfit VETO, then went on to perform in many bands such as FLOATING OPERA, HARRY AB, LUXSTER, MANIAC, MAXWELL BLUES BAND, NEXUS, PASSENGER, and TOX.
Helmut Grab became a part of New Age artist FRIEDEMANN WITECKAs albums, The Beginning Of Hope (1979) and Voyager In Expanse (1983), and played keyboards & harp as a member of MATTER OF TASTE, with Uli Bühl on piano, synthesizer.
The music of JONATHAN is similar to SCHICKE, FUHRS & FROHLING, SIRIUS, ZYMA, OCTOPUS, STREETMARK, AGE and PYTHAGORAS, and therefore should appeal to those familiar with their artistry.

![Rainbow - The Ballad Of Captain Bob And The Good Ship Venus (US Heavy Psych 1968)
Ritchie Blackmore may have gotten more mileage out of the band name, but the original Rainbows one album from 1968 shows that this quartet, completely unrelated to Blackmores outfit, had the idea for appropriate nomenclature first. That said, After the Storm is one of those releases that isnt deservedly obscure per se, but definitely doesnt deserve automatic kudos for being rare and therefore valuable for that reason alone. One of any number of L.A. groups of their time and place, Rainbow put together plenty that was in the air around them, from Loves amazing confections to the Byrds transmogrifications to Iron Butterflys keyboard-heavy explorations (perhaps no surprise given that bandleader/chief songwriter W. David Mohr played both organ and piano) to all sorts of electric blues the albums one cover is a take with saxophone of Willie Dixons I Just Want to Make Love to You. As an individual effort, though, its generally unremarkable if anything, its the odd little elements scattered throughout that give it any uniqueness, but thats not enough to sustain a full album. So theres the fragmentary Debbys Party, which starts the album, all cheers and party noise; what sounds like a door opening before the beginning of Love Allusions; the easygoing guitar introduction to Leaf Clover (very much a post-SMiLE Beach Boys song in feel); the chipmunk voice followed by the intentionally over the top introduction of Mohr on Does Your Head Need Straightening? good moments all. Otherwise theres a lot of bravura singing here and there, soothing background harmony singing thats pleasant but little more, and the general sense that these guys meant well cant knock that, but theres nothing much more to say. The 2008 reissue adds no bonus tracks but the reproduction of the album packaging is pleasant enough.
