Flute-y and carefree jazzy prog wonderment from one of the earliest notables out of the French underground. Structure and its mastermind Bernard Wystraete anticipate a sound here that was more prevalent a few years later in France, with a distinct akin to the work of fellow scene movers Jean Cohen-Solal and Triode. You'll also find some fab exploitation psych/prog bits in the mode of Braen's Machine and Wolfgang Dauner's Rischkas' Soul, airy Brazilian Bossa overtones, and some bits (particularly on the violin and vocal-driven "Episodes") that presciently propose a sound later taken to the bank in the mid 70's by Polish fusion god Michel Urbaniak, right down to the Urszula Dudziak-like bits of effected scatting. I love it.

With a cover like that and references to Urszula Dudziak, I couldn't resist! Many thanks!
ReplyDeleteHelllo, I know you must be tired of reading this, but GREAT BLOG you have here, haaha...
ReplyDeleteWell...speaking of Wolfgang Dauner's Rischkas' Soul..... Would you be so kind as you usually are and please re-up that album? I can't find it anywhere, not even for buying it... if you know a place to buy it as well, it would be awesome if you informed me.... but once again, a digital download would be much appreciated since I'm dying to hear it! haha....thanks, and greetings from Chiapas, Mexico.
