The Sounds Of Synanon / The Synanon Choir – The Prince Of Peace: A Rock-Jazz Cantata [1969] by request, FLAC limited time only

 

As discogs indicates, this group is a:

Group connected to the drug rehabilitation program.

Wikipedia entry here, where it's described as a cult and a typical one at that, with the usual child abuse, forcible confinement, ridiculous messianic leader and gradual descent into violence as the group believes it's above the law.  Amazing how common the story was and still is, and to this day there are countless such cults in existence all over the world I'm sure.

With LP Notes:

Rush released by Epic Records the soundtrack of the color television special "The'Prince of Peace" to coincide with the show's national premiere on the Metromedia Network on Sunday, June 8, 1969.

Unfortunately I would say the music is very straightforward jazz-rock composing, similar to the style in the 1960s of jazz operas.  Sample, Quiet Sky:

Note that the music was composed by someone called Greg Dykes.

Iconoclasta - Concierto Anniversario, 35 years (2022) with FLAC limited time only

 

Likely everyone knows these Mexican (instrumental, electric guitar-based) prog rockers who began in the 1980s, discographed here.  This request is a live 2-CD from 2022, we're looking as well for later releases Alter Ego (2023) and Orden in Caos (2025) (the latest releases that is).

Sample track, during which you'll notice the excellent recording quality, La Etica del Verdugo:

Babos Gyula in 2 [1988 Kinn es Benn, 1990 Sham with George Jinda]

 

A multi-instrumentalist who founded Saturnus (posted back here). I loved that band so much I decided to pursue the discographies of the individual members, so first we have Babos.  Here we have some new agey keyboards music, low key but quite tender and emotional in general.

Birth: 26 June, 1949 (Budapest, Hungary). Died: 12 April, 2018 (Budapest, Hungary). Plays guitar, keyboard instruments, synthesizer, percussions. Programmer, drum programmer, orchestrator, producer, vocalist. Professor of Jazz Division of Liszt Ferenc College of Music Arts. He founded the band Saturnus (1979), Babos Trio Plusz (1985), Babos Trio (1989), Babos Quartet, Take Four (1995), Babos Project Romani (1997), Babos Project Special.

From Kinn es Been, In Memoriam T.M. which sounds more than a little like the old jazz standard Round About Midnight:

From 1990's Sham, which of course hailing from that year is a little bit less inventive and more smoothly fuzak, Crying for Temesvar:

Heta Linjen in 2 albums [1971 Med Kisa, Brass & Brudar, and 1971 Won't you Step Inside]

Profile:

Swedish Band led by keyboardist, arranger and composer Berndt Egerbladh (posted here with solo material before and elsewhere).  "A changed and expanded line-up went on to record another album under the name Feta Heta Linjen," oddly enough released the same year.

The music is typical proto-prog psych plus horn rock with vocals in the Scandinavian style, eg Kalevala, Tasavallan Presidentti, (Finnish) Nimbus. Similar in style to the earliest albums from Canadians Dr. Music (posted here long ago).

From the 1971 album Won't You Step Inside, Black Eyes:

From the censored cover album, Mama, which starts off relatively inauspiciously but develops into a nice proggy jam later on:

So your enjoyment of this depends on if you appreciate psych and horn rock in general.

Zbigniew Namyslowski Air Condition in 3 LPs [1980 Follow Your Kite, 1982 Air Condition, 1984 Plaka Nights]

 

I love the way 1980's Air Condition has about 6 different covers, and they're all really interesting in different ways, some harking back to the 1970s, some leaning into the bright colored 1980s.

I posted his albums before here and here but not these ones which are of course similar in style.  Smooth fusion, of course, with some interesting ideas here and there.

After Dinner Walk from the Kite album:

Title track from Plaka Nights:
