Fruits de Mer Records - Psychedelia, Krautrock, Progressive Rock, Acid-Folk, R&B, Spacerock and Vinyl Heaven

Wikipedia describes spacerock as, “…a rock music genre characterized by loose and lengthy song structures centred on instrumental textures that typically produce a hypnotic, otherworldly sound. It may feature distorted and reverberation-laden guitars, minimal drumming, languid vocals, synthesizers and lyrical themes of outer space and science fiction”

Whether that's a good definition or not, it's been our basis for asking club members to recommend some of their favourite space rock tracks (our lame excuse for the request being that Moon Goose have 'Moon' in their band name) and we'll be sharing them with you over the next couple of weeks...hope you like at least some of them.
Quite a few stretch or ignore the Wikipedia definition, that's for sure, and a number of them pummel you into submission over the space of 15-20 minutes, which is usually no bad thing.

From the classic to the truly obscure, fill your (moon)boots...
