Greetings,

In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever music magazine <http://www.perfectsoundforever.com>, you'll find (among other things):


ANNIE HASLAM
Renaissance singer's world of art and design- interview by Robin Cook
"In the first part of our extensive interview, I spoke to Haslam via phone about her artworks and how they were influenced by her decades long musical career and vice versa, along with stories of her background in design, the idea of instant karma, the
impressive work she did on her own outfits for Renaissance, the amazing stage set-up's she's created for the recent Renaissance tour, her connections to Kate Moss, Shirley Bassey and the Beatles."


JAKI LIEBEZEIT
Early years of the Can man- book excerpt by Jono Podmore
"Years before he became the founding member of the legendary kosmische (kraturock) legends, Liebezeit groomed his skills outside of rock, including jazz, classical, African and Spanish music. This fascinating look into his formative early years can be
found in a book by writer Jono Podmore, which is still in the funding stages."


PHIL MILLER
Canterbury prog guitarist remembered by Gary Gomes
"Miller was an extraordinarily unique musician who came to attention during an era in which guitarists were valued more for how many notes they played more than the intellectual content of their playing or how well they constructed an improvised solo."


PROG ROCK/CRITICAL REACTION III
The advent of techique by Gary Gomes
"Technique always increases to meet the demands of the music. The advent of the Who, Doors, Hendrix and Cream raised the bar dramatically, especially for rhythm sections. Bass players and drummers were expected to do more--much more--than they had
previously. The advent of groups like Vanilla Fudge added the element of drawing out longer compositional settings."


You can also hear many of the artists above in our special Spotify playlist for this issue:

See you online,
Jason
