IO Earth lost almost all its equipment when a fire swept through the complex where the British prog rock band’s studio and rehearsal space were located.

Here’s a look back at a handful of early songs that pointed the way from Yes’ self-titled debut, released 55 years ago today.

Jazz pianist and composer Luther Allison makes his first splash as a leader with his introductory, Memphis Mafia-inspired album ‘I Owe It All to You.’

Nothing brings out the true character of virtuosic musicians Aruán Ortiz and Ramón López like the ‘Ephemeral Shapes’ improvisation sessions with Ivo Perelman.

David Udell’s ‘It’s Worth It’ is a wonderfully weird pop/psych-rock concoction that bubbles with an expansive, really cool ’70s vinyl euphoria.

Joan Torres’s All Is Fused may be known as a fusion jazz band but on ‘Embrace Form,’ their improvisational skills come to the fore.

Released 30 years ago today on ‘Voodoo Lounge,’ the shoulda-been-hit “Love Is Strong” showed the Rolling Stones hadn’t lost their flair for a snarky come-on.

In many ways, Phillip Golub’s astounding debut ‘Abiding Memory’ evokes the budding genius of early Vijay Iyer.

The few who heard him described Sterling Harrison’s music as “deep soul,” with a voice that conjured up aural images of Otis Redding and Wilson Pickett.

‘Weight of the World,’ the latest release from prog-metal multi-instrumentalist Mark Anthony K and Joe Bailey, continues Dark Monarchy’s upward progression.
