The Bee Gees’ Festival Albums Collection 1965-67 shows the brother Gibb in an embryonic phase. These are, after all, the first three albums they recorded in Australia after arriving here from England. Their debut was recorded when Barry was just 19 and the twins, Maurice and Robin were 16. It seemed like a fun, joyful time because this feeling makes its way onto the record. And while they did not produce chart “hits” per se, this time was fruitful in providing the solid groundwork for what was to come. The three albums have not been released before in a full, comprehensive form. The closest anyone has come is to release these as compilations like Brilliant From Birth. But in that case the track ordering was muddled and the original artwork was not used. On this 2013 collection the albums are preserved with their correct cover, running orders and track-listing and so here begins our journey with The Bee Gees Sing & Play 14 Barry Gibb Songs.

Fans of Kristjan Jarvi’s Absolute Ensemble and their previous recordings Absolute Zawinul and Absolution will get the chance to wallow in the splendid sounds of Arabian Nights Live at Town Hall NYC come August 10th. Set for release on the Enja Records label, Arabian Nights is a sumptuous, exotic fusion where classical, jazz, world and Middle Eastern music meet in a kaleidoscopic melange of pure goodness. The Absolute Arabian Nights Project flowered out of a post-September 11th memorial concert performed as part Musikfest Bremen in Bremen, Germany. UNESCO Artist for Peace and musician Marcel Khalife, musician Bassam Saba, composer and musician Dhafer Youssef and composer and musician Daniel Schnyder teamed up with Krisjan Jarvi and the Absolute Ensemble to create “an honest, apolitical statement of peace and unity in the music world” with the Absolute Arabian Nights Project. The project grew to fruition in 2007 with a performance at New York City’s Town Hall as part of the Not Just Jazz Series.

The first single from the new album, “Shake Up Christmas” will be serviced to radio stations in November together with a video for the track.

Thompson has a new album out there called Electric. The title is actually a bit of a misnomer as you’ll find acoustic folksy ballads on the record along with the more bracing rockin’ numbers. Still, Electric is a fine testament to a revered musician, one that simply puts a seal on a long and storied career. It isn’t particularly revelatory, nor does it boast a classic number along the lines of a “1952 Vincent Black Lightning” or even a “Beeswing”, but the material is generally fairly strong, and it showcases Thompson’s out-of-sight guitar chops, the kind of thing that makes him a perennial favorite of Rolling Stone magazine.

Submotion Orchestra - a band who sound exactly as their name suggests - reawaken the rotting corpse of ’90s coffee-table chillout, issuing a mild dubstep sedative and putting it straight back to sleep. If you’re somehow hankering after a trip-hop fix you’re better off checking out the last month’s Red Snapper comeback, which doesn’t sound half as dated. Or just go back to your Lamb albums, of which there is a new one out this very month - gotta be better than this dozy fare.
