This is the very first album by the great Belgian guitarist Philip Catherine that no one has seen or owns, but which you can now! And without paying $500 to do so!
Originally released by Warner Music France in 1972, not only is this a legit release, but the original 8 track tapes have been were remixed in 2016 with the oversight of Philip! So the sound is much more clear and balanced than even the best copies of the original album!
This is a nice album of early electric jazz that ranges from 'light & breezy' to seriously Canterbury! Speaking of 'Canterbury', pianist Marc Moulin was the leader of the legendary Canterburian Belgian combo Placebo and he contributes about 1/3rd of the compositions here and Freddy Rothier also drummed in Placebo.
In addition to all this other greatness is the fact that this includes 3 never-heard bonus tracks from the original session!
