Listen to the Israeli band Ouzo Bazooka. The musicians around singer-songwriter Uri Brauner Kinrot make use of traditional scales from the Middle East, but put them in a distant context: British psychedelic rock from the 1960s and space rock from the 1970s. Song titles like "Space Camel" also show that humor is allowed.

RIP Keith Tippett
British jazz pianist Keith Tippett has passed away at the age of 72 after suffering from a heart attack. An important turning point came in 1970 when he collaborated with King Crimson's prog rockers, on whose album “In the Wake of Poseidon” he participated. In the song "Cat Food", in which Tippett contributes wild cluster outbreaks, he even performed with the band on television on the BBC show "Top of the Pops". The following year, Tippett was also heard on the King Crimson album "Islands", this time with more impressionistic sounds. #ThankYouForTheMusic
