About Court In The Act.

No albums are hosted here. All files must be deleted 24 hours after download, as they are for review and criticism purposes only - provided you follow this guideline, downloading from Court In The Act is legal as per s30(1) of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. If any copyright holder has a problem with their material being posted here, get in touch and I will remove it. Let me know if any links are broken, I'll remove the post to prevent future annoyance, and will attempt to re-upload the file.

Comments make our work worthwhile. If you really enjoyed an album, tell us about it, we'd love to hear from you. If you hated it, tell us why.

Although music is a major part of all of our lives, we all have some form of external life. If there are periods in which no posts are added, I'm sorry, but that's how things happen. Even though I love blogging like this, sometimes I can't muster up the desire within myself to write about yet another album.

I'd like to say too that Court In The Act will never be run for personal profit. This means no advertisement, no premium schemes, and no LinkBucks. Megaupload is used because it strikes a fair balance between ease of upload and ease of download.

Peter Wyngarde - When Sex Leers Its Inquisitive Head [1970]

Peter Wyngarde, best known for his acting work, delivered the world this decidedly odd album in 1970. I say odd, because an actor who was supposedly on the brink of stardom decided to record a spoken word album experimenting in various accents (most notably on the song 'Rape', itself highly controversial), named When Sex Leers Its Inquisitive Head. Strikes you as a little odd, no? Nonetheless, it's a very interesting listen, with the juxtaposition of a story-like BBC accent spoken word element with 70s style science program music in the background.

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath [1970]

In my eyes, Sabbath created on this record both the first heavy metal album ever, and one of the best. Tony Iommi's riffs, although fantastic throughout his career, never quite again reached the lofty heights of this record.

Miles Davis - Bitches Brew [1970]

Fuck me, a double album. I find it appropriate, however, that one of the last batch of uploads for which I will be using Megaupload is massive both historically and duration-wise. Miles made it here - a delightful concoction of his earlier bluesy jazz style and the emergent strains of progressive rock. It's a little bit long for me personally, but I can't deny its genius.

Deep Purple - In Rock [1970]

Even if you're only moderately interested in rock/metal music, this is one of the classic albums you should hear. While 'Smoke On The Water' puts many potential listeners off Deep Purple (it did for me), this is the album to hear to really give them a chance. Being a 70s rock album, it couldn't go without some progressive elements, surprisingly exhibited on one of the album's singles - 'Child In Time'.
