Experimental ethnic fusion outfit based around the duo of Jean-François Gaël, Pierre Buffenoir, initially with Arcane V members: Philippe Gumplowicz and Youval Micenmacher, and others. Sonorhc (Chronos backwards) played a wide-ranging mixture of styles, covering all sorts of ancient and modern cultural elements, medieval, baroque, oriental, you name it, they mixed and matched, fused and collided, making unusual and original concoctions, resulting in three very different albums, and also Jean-François Gaël et Pierre Buffenoir - Portes D'Orient which was essentially Sonorhc although it didn't bear their name.

A roundup of hits drawn from Gary Glitter's early-to-mid-'70s heyday, utterly unadventurous in its selection of titles, but breathtaking in its ability to remind the listener just how all-powerful the leader was in his prime. The early '80s saw Glitter firmly on the comeback trail, staging a succession of low-budget but high-thrill live shows for an audience of post-punkers who initially regarded him as little more than kitsch nostalgia, but swiftly took him deep to heart – indeed, it's a sign of just how highly this new generation regarded Glitter that, when promoter John Keenan formulated the Futurama festivals to showcase all that the new wave had to offer, Glitter was both a triumphant headliner and an undisputed one.
