French TV's newest CD, A Ghastly State Of Affairs is their 15th in their long history. It is also their first album not to be self-released. Headed up by charter member bassist/composer Mike Sary, he is joined again by guitarist Kasumi Yoneda (also from the Japanese band TEE), keyboardist Patrick Strawser (best known for his work in the 90's band Volare), and now by the original drummer from FTV's first three abums, Fenner Castner.

Morristown: The Darkest Winter of the Revolutionary War and the Plot to Kidnap George Washington

Morristown: The Darkest Winter of the Revolutionary War and the Plot to Kidnap George Washington by William Hazelgrove
English | October 1st, 2021 | ISBN: 149305662X | 272 pages | True EPUB | 1.64 MB

In the fall of 1779 George Washington took his 10,000 men into winter camp at Morristown, New Jersey after six long years of fighting. It would be a brutal winter of suffering, depression, starvation, betrayal, mutiny, treason and an attempt to kidnap George Washington by the British. By the spring only 8,000 men would be left in Morristown with less than two thirds fit for service. Books have cemented Valley Forge as one with Omaha Beach, the Death March of Bataan, and Washington crossing the Delaware. But the winter of Valley Forge was mild in comparison to other winters.

Nottingham, UK band The Soundcarriers have announced their fifth album, Through Other Reflections, which will be out August 16 via the band’s own Phosphonic label. Their last album was 2022’s great Wilds. “It almost comes across like a story in some ways”, says the group’s Adam Cann of the album, “the music is quite sectional with elements of exotica and cinematic type layers, it’s a good balance of grooves, tunes and weirdness.” Cann adds, the songs “follow that folk-song tradition of wanting to escape to an imagined time, but here it’s more urban than pastoral.”

Finally Dutch conductor Eduard van Beinum is receiving attention he so richly deserves with many of his superb performances appearing on CD. Philips has issued most of his commercial recordings for that label, available mostly in Holland. Dutton Laboratories, LYS and Japanese Decca also have issued a number of recordings (with many yet unissued—see our Features article on Van Beinum). Now we have this set of live concert performances dating from 1935 through 1958. The earliest are from 78 rpm acetates some of which were not in very good condition. Some, not all, have surface disturbances even the most precise digital processing cannot eliminate. However, for the collector this is relatively insignificant considering these remarkable performances.
