Description


(12" 33 rpm) SPIRALES SRP 3318 (France, 1979)

ALPHA DU CENTAURE

"CONTACT"

Jean-Pierre RICHARD, guitar,
Olivier KOECHLIN, acoustic bass,
Jonathan DICKINSON, drums



 THE ONLY LP MADE BY THIS EXCELLENT TRIO

SELF PRODUCED, PROBABLY 500 EX.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED IMPROVISATION, WEIRD FUZZ/WAH-WAH GUITAR WITH BOTH ROCK AND JAZZ MINDS, AS A FUSION OF MODERN/FREE JAZZ WITH HENDRIX. PROFUSE DRUM WORK AND ACOUSTIC BASS LINES. SURELY ONE OF THE GREAT INSTRUMENTAL PROG LP OF ITS KIND.
The music is not romantic or New Age as could let think the cover drawing, but free improvisation on solid rhythmical basis, including a track on exotic rhythm.

SLEEVE CONDITION: VG+ (mostly NM, very light local foxing spots as shown on our images, some very superficial light rubbing — visible by close sight — on top and bottom borders, 1 short light crushing with superficial wear on left spine)

RECORD CONDITION : EX++ (M except on the very beginning of A-side some factory "inside-wax" marks : we have heard 2-3 ultra-light ticks here, perhaps corresponding perhaps not — otherwise conservative NM, this LP has been only locally played by us, for testing)
( Please see our grading table on our ABOUT ME page )
