Tokyo Up Late

Jimmy Raney was the definitive cool jazz guitarist, a fluid bop soloist with a quiet sound who had a great deal of inner fire. He worked with local groups in Chicago before spending nine months with Woody Herman in 1948. From then on he was in the major leagues, having associations with Al Haig, Buddy DeFranco, Artie Shaw, and Terry Gibbs.

In any case, these Tokyo recordings were too good to hide; the quartet had reached an interactive creative high around this time, often burning at the rarified level that Nude Ants reached.

Through the lens, often deforming of the camera, 'Mondo Di Notte' presents for the first time a company's image dominated from eros and shot with a sometimes gruesome violence. Products in the late '50s and early '60s, 'Mondo Di Notte ', 'Mondo Di Notte 2 ' and 'Mondo Di Notte 3 ', in a crescendo of impressive actors and events, were among the earliest film than in the sixties and eighties it was presented as one of the most distinctive and innovative film genres, the "movie world", indeed.

England's Praying Mantis was one of the more melodic bands to emerge from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal scene. They combined a Thin Lizzy-style twin guitar approach with Def Leppard-like vocal harmonies, resulting in a sound not unlike later-day Rainbow. Originally named Junction, the band was formed in the late '70s by brothers Tino (vocals/guitar) and Chris Troy (bass/vocals), later adding Steve Carroll (guitar/vocals) and Dave Potts (drums).
