Re: "New" CDs

2008-11-08 by Bernie

Oh, THAT music. A while back I posted a link to sound files from both 
albums. They're pretty scratchy vinyl recordings, but you can get an 
idea if it's worth it to you.

As for my thoughts about the music, it's also on the link. But 
basically, the first album was totally controlled by the producers 
and most of the material was written by one of them. The second album 
is all original material, but we were given a limited amount of time 
in the studio, so a lot of the material isn't completely finished. 
Strange thing is, an instrumental called "Bizwambi" from the second 
album was released as a single and is still popular with the dance 
and jazz crowds in France.
