Newly discovered unique prog/beat music from the 1970s! Day Of May was a progressive/avant-garde rock band from the very lively period 1971-1976, based in Nykobing Mors, Denmark. The lyrics are entirely Danish and are about life around us, about love, the universe and the adventure. For fans of Jethro Tull, Santana, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Alrune Rod and Savage Rose.
This is where fans of the group can sort of stop and settle down at last. MCA Records had previously let the Mamas & the Papas' music out on CD in a trickle; the debut LP was upgraded and a compilation of remastered hits showed later in the decade, but the rest was left to languish. This two-CD set makes up for that neglect, assembling all four of the quartet's '60s albums on two CDs and augmenting them with the mono single versions of "I Saw Her Again," "Words of Love," and "Creeque Alley," plus the non-LP single "Glad to Be Unhappy." One just wants to luxuriate in the sound of this reissue and its little details, like the rhythm guitar on "Do You Want to Dance" that cuts right through the air, the string basses on "Go Where You Want to Go" that sound like they're just across the room, and the rest of the first album.

House of Lords come back with their 12th studio album entitled “Full Tilt Overdrive”, another jewel in a musical crown of albums which is truly second to none in the world of classic hard rock. Recorded and produced once again by the band’s singer and mastermind, James Christian along with keyboardist Mark Mangold, “Full Tilt Overdrive” does not change or alter the band’s winning formula but instead offers an absolutely inspired and credible album which stands shoulder to shoulder with the best albums from the band’s repertoire.
