JACQUES THOLLOT-WATCH DEVIL GO, LP, 1975, FRANCE, NWW LIST




Possibly the best album by this extraordinary French jazz drummer (though Cinq Hops is close), Watch Devil Go features sax, flute and synth player Francois Jeanneau, who's LP Une Bien Curieuse Planete was released during the same year on the same label and which, in both style and substance, was a virtual companion piece to Watch Devil Go. Both albums contain a similarly baffling yet winning combination of killer library music-style synthetic queasy wheeze melodics, straight bop and out jazz freakouts, combined in ways that sit at peculiar right angles to one another.
