It’s called The Airtight Garage, and I’ll be playing a variety of music that I feel is special in some way.

I don’t know what my regular time slot will be yet, but I’m told that the very first episode will air this Sunday night, 29 August, at 10:30 pm (BST). To give you an idea of what the hour will hold, I’ve got lots of new music from independent artists, mostly in the space rock and psychedelic vein, a couple older tracks from the 1970s, and a few things I can’t really categorize.

Anyway, please do check it out if you have time, and let me know what you think, and also, do tell me if there is something great you have heard that you think belongs on my show.

This EP was released exactly two years ago today, in the spring of 2008, and contains an extended cover version of the delightful Jagger/Richards authored foray into space rock, “2000 Light Years From Home”, which originally appeared on the Stones’ 1967 album, Their Satanic Majesties Request.

Mendip Rock was a download-only release, until now, and the incompatibility of international licensing laws make it cost-prohibitive and difficult to sell the cover song as a download outside of the UK/Europe, so as a result there has been no way to purchase this EP from outside the UK until now. Fortunately, it’s much easier to license CDs than downloads!

First batch of just 20 copies. Availability of more will be based on demand.

I can’t remember - not to mention worked up to (a) jam! What the hell is this? Very rare - 100% organic usually … announced on the jar label at least. Made by mum with love and hope? … sorry, now I’m getting off the point. This is an EP holding one long 24 minute improvisation song - wrapped by a pun - an original excerpt left from the ‘Perpetual Motion’ sessions in April 2009 which I’ve already reviewed.

You can bet a jam jar that this track got on this production in its original state - live as such even including some slight drum problems which proves the original character. Well to be exact, except minimal overdubs nothing is polished and reworked. The song holds nearly the same spirit as ‘Helleborus’, only violin player Graham Clark is not aboard here. This means as for a jam as it is we have a grooving fundament with driving drums and Andy Budge’s playful bass. The guitar is soloing a lot with variations from psychedelic to jazz rock accompanied by Cary’s well-conveived squeaking, bubbling and swirling synthesizer adds.

This reminds me of Oresund Space Collective in parts. What makes it enjoyable all along are the changes to spacey floating excursions here and there. Probably I’m wrong but during this moments the guitar sounds MAN (Micky Jones) reminiscent to me - exciting! As usual you can enjoy a collective playing which technically deserves the name ‘Cary Grace Band’. Anyway - ‘The recipe is a secret, its rare ingredients are arcane and unobtainable’ Cary is revealing about the production. This jam is delicious by all means and can be ordered as a nice-looking black vinyl replica CD in mini record sleeve via her own label Door 13 Music.

I do! I like it, Sam-I-am!
