Start with The Oz Tapes: https://lesrallizesdenudes.bandcamp.com/album/the-oz-tapes
And then there are 3 more on that same label, Temporal Drift, that were (re)issued recently.

@GraemeE oh man!! How do you like the album? I’m a huge KM fan. Seen them a few times. First time was a dive bar in Denver with like 60 people. They absolutely killed it. Again a year later at the same bar with a few more people. Then they got some steam. Saw them last at a bigger Denver venue with like 2,500 people. They incinerated that place. Way better sound system there and they had become so good at drawing out each song into an explosive crescendo!! One hell of a farewell set!! Think it was like their 3-4th to last show ever.
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

@setandsetting rad man!!! Taking the dog to the park and gonna pop in the ear buds!!
Any Warren Zevon fans out there? Mofi just pressed his Excitable Boy album. I snagged one.
-
@steelydan I’ve got a copy of that Electric Warrior pressing. Sound is quite nice. KG does incredible work.

@Mizmazzle masana temples is my favorite of theirs but I intend to gather up the rest at some point
They are going to be one of those bands that I spend years kicking myself for not going out to see live when I had the chance
-
Still bummed KM decided to hang it up. So killer live.
I managed to see Tom Petty a few times, but we’ve all got our version of that story — mine’s Elliott Smith. Dammit, so many missed opps.

I almost saw Prince. He played the same 2,500 person venue I last saw Kikagaku Moyo at. My buddy had two insanely hard to get tickets. He was gonna take his girl but they broke up so he offered it to me. I was so excited. Then, of course, he got back with that bitch!!! Gave her the ticket. Then they broke up again a few weeks later. Worst part is, she didn’t even care about seeing Prince. I’m not going to be able to sleep tonight now recalling this travesty!!

@Mizmazzle - The Lemonheads for me.
I’ve had tickets to see them three times. The first time the gig was cancelled, the second time I was ill.
The third gig, I arranged to go with friends, and later realised it was the 1st ‘anniversary’ of the first date with my girlfriend at the time, so I got her an extra ticket at the last minute. On the way to the gig (Newport in South Wales), my friend lost control of his car, and we hit a bus parked in a lay-by. My girlfriend had to be cut out of the wreckage by the fire brigade. Not only that, but she (literally) snapped her right upper humerus in two, and lost all feeling in her arm. It eventually returned 3 months later, but she had mentally prepared to lose the use of her arm by that point - that experience definitely drew us together, and we’ve been married 25 years!
Ironically, the band did an anniversary tour recently, for which I contemplated getting tickets for about a nano-second, before deciding better of it! -
@Nocturama damn dude!! That’s a horrible and yet beautiful at the same time story. Glad your now wife is ok.

@setandsetting any Acid Mothers Temple in your stash?
I don't own any of their records but I used to see them every year pre-pandemic when they'd tour the US. But it doesn't seem like they've been around since 2019.

@steelydan a have an early reissue as well. I think it’s a a year or two after the original release year. It’s sounds kinda flat. Not a lot of dynamics. Of course, the music itself doesn’t have a ton of dynamics as it is. Kinda garage glam rock ya know. But that’s what makes it so damn good!!
