I've been meaning to get that Pseu album, but haven't. Tongue

Okay something i've been wondering...are you and Salty Jon actually the same person ? I know i know that's just crazy talk but has anyone seen you two together. No i didn't think so. Shocked


I've seen them here on the west coast. Beached up on the sands like a clumsy walrus. They were both joined in a strange fashion (something to do with rubberbands and glue), but I'm pretty sure there were two of them.

I feel the same way and i wasn't expecting this. I mentioned that they had two guest horn players on this one, well on their debut they also had two guest horn players who are brothers. They played with Magma and Weidorje but i forget their names right now. Anyway what i'm getting at is that the horns really add a lot to their sound, they make it that much better.

Man this has to be in my top three here with Xaal and Pseu. They play cello, sax and flute besides the traditional instruments. And while i keep it with my Krautrock albums it's rightly put under Jazz Rock Fusion here. By the way i've never heard their debut so i appreciate you guys talking about it. I'm interested for sure.

About Xaal, although have their own sound this is a band I'd like to see with a better production, sound wise. They needed a better recording and a better mix.

Being a walrus is tough work. I'd let to see you not be clumsy in that condition. Stern Smile

I am deeply sorry. I have never been sensitive around marine mammals.

I should mention that the ZAO album here was their last studio album from 1977 that is until they reformed for one final album released in 1994. Anyway this one is Jazz Rock all the way and Cahen composed it all. Seffer was gone by this point along with all the other original members except for Cahen of course.

If you think it's good enough for a vote go ahead.  Pulsar and Xaal are the surprises this time around.
