Description

Placebo styled jazz funk album - every track on here is great . Now available as a double LP - Check!Marc Moulin’s debut LP Sam Suffy (1975) is a compelling and unique mosaic of Jazz, Soul, and Electronic elements that employs sampled sounds and sequencers to startling effect, vividly anticipating the music of the not-so-distant future. While rooted in collective improvisation, cuts like the opening “Le Saule” and “Le Beau Galop” foreshadow the emergence of House music via their underlying electronic motifs; even more impressive is the five-part, 17-minute epic “Tohubohu,” a remarkable update of Musique Concrète sensibilities that creates drumbeats from water drops and pits trumpeter Richard Rousselet against a herd of hippos. But for all its complexities and innovations, Sam Suffy is above all a sublime listening experience, closer in spirit and scope to trip-hop than the more abstract fusion classics it follows. The Music On Vinyl 40th Anniversary Edition boasts Blue Note’s 2005 30th anniversary remix of “Tohubohu”. • 180 gram audiophile vinyl • 40th anniversary edition • First pressing of 1000 numbered copies on black & yellow mixed vinyl
