Luv'd Ones

Magic Box (also known by its cover title as The Loved Ones' Magic Box) is the debut and sole album from Australian rock band The Loved Ones. It was released in Australia on the W&G label in 1967. The album was reissued in 1985 on Glenn A. Baker's label Raven Records with a different track order and bouns tracks. However, when the album was remastered only the left hand channel of the stereo master was used. This means some instruments and an intro to 'Sad Dark Eyes' (an electric piano in the right hand channel) are missing on the Raven Records release. The 1995 Karussell compact disc uses the Raven Records master as its source, meaning the true stereo or mono version of Magic Box has never been released on compact disc. Both cd reissues included a Wild Cherries rehearsal take of 'Without You', which has been incorrectly attributed to the Loved Ones. The album was included in the 2010 book, '100 Best Australian Albums'.

For The Good Ones’ new album, RWANDA, you should be loved, bandleader Adrien Kazigira composed over forty songs. Most were meditations on his now thirteen-year-old daughter, Marie-Claire, and the life-threatening tumor that has afflicted her left-eye. The recording was done live without overdubs on Adrien’s farm and was imbued with the passing of producer Ian Brennan’s mother during the days that they were there together as well as a former founding band member recently having succumbed to his own demons.

The Good Ones announce their fourth album, Rwanda…you see ghosts, I see sky. As with The Good Ones' past three releases, Grammy-winning music producer and author, Ian Brennan (Tinariwen, Zomba Prison Project, Ramblin; Jack Elliott), and his wife, Italian Rwandan photographer, and filmmaker, Marilena Umuhoza Delli, recorded The Good Ones' album live and without overdubs on the primary songwriter Adrien Kazigiras' farm the same farm Adrien was born on, the same land where he hid and survived the 1994 genocide.
