Ozric Tentacles Anyone?


I recently discovered Ozric Tenacles "Jurassic Shift" through Pandora.com (great music site).

This band really kicks it!

I'd describe it as atmospheric, progressive rock jams. Think of some of the longer Porcupine Tree instrumentals. Different though.

Great recording as well.

Highly recommended.

oh, and listen to Qdrone, he's right: Snapper reissued their catalog in a double cd edition (2for1 format). Problem was: thy butchered the covers (I hated this!!! Blim's artwork is very original and psychodelic). Don't know why in the ..... they would replace the covers with amateur crappy artwork. I spoke with Ed Wynn about it and he wasn't happy either.

now go fetch the pongmaster!!!!!!
I recommend Arborescence in addition to Jurassic Shift. The others are similar to these two IMO. All great though! Check out Return to Forever's "Romantic Warrior" as well for jazzy version.

Afterswoosh is also great. It's a collection of songs from '84 to '92 that were previously only released on cassette.

I saw them in concert a couple of years ago. Wow, if I were on 'shrooms I'd have probably freaked out. The most psychedelic show I think I've ever seen.
Picked up Erpland in the used bin at my local haunt. Will give it a go tonight.

So, Arborescence is different musically from Jurrasic Shift, and these two recordings cover the general musical flavor of the rest of the discography?

Do I understand this correctly?
