Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Amongst the Seventies French jazz-rock fusion treasures, we cannot say that SPHEROE is the worst ever ! The eponymous album (1975) and "Primadonna" (1978) show a post-fusion style, mixing a natural refinement with arrangements and complex developments. The influences are hyper-elaborated, inherited from the Progressive rock played by CAMEL, SOFT MACHINE or CARAVAN. The rhythms have a jazz influence, but are also connected with RETURN TO FOREVER's latin feeling. Devoted to Carlos SANTANA, guitar player Michel PEREZ plays elaborated parts, blended with smooth Fender Rhodes organ sounds. Bass and drums bring a flexible and solid rhythm base. The pieces associate fever, nervosity, sometimes serenity but always musicality. SPHEROE is into delicate, smooth, contrasted and impressionist music, based on melodical and harmonical research. It may be compared to BRAND X or TERPANDRE, not so far from ECM-like fusion (Terje RYPDAL, etc.)
