DEROME/LUSSIER-SOYEZ VIGILANTS, RESTEZ VIVANTS! VOLUME 1 (UN SON EST SI VITE ARRIVE...), LP, 1986, CANADA

Death-defying world class R.I.O. masterpiece from two longtime Quebecois keepers of the flame (when they're not improvising or scoring for theater and film). The shifts in form and tone here vacillate from the jubilant R.I.O. of Fred Frith's Gravity/Speechless period to more down-in-the-mouth Henry Cow-isms, much of it shot through with tendrils of gorgeous Quebecois folk-inspired motion of the precise sort Rene Lussier initiated back in the 70's with his involvement in Conventum and which has underpinned all of his work to a greater or lesser extent since.
