Polygone - Eclectique CD
SKU
ProgQuebec 42
"Polygone was formed around three former members of ‘70s Québec progressive rock group Incubus (since reunited as ExCubus with two albums also available through ProgQuébec): Marc Delage (guitars, vocals, bass, piano and mellotron), Michel Phaneuf (synthesizers, clavinet, mellotron and vocals), and Pierre Poulet (guitar and bass), who were joined by Claude Phaneuf (guitars and bass) and Luc Proulx (drums) in 1979; the group remains active until 1983 (also the year André Barrière replaced Claude Phaneuf on guitar for several performances).
With lyrics from main author Jacques Boulerice, the group builds a repertoire of 21 original numbers, of which eight have recently been recorded and are included here. In addition to these, the CD contains two more tracks composed by the band’s longtime friend, André De Longchamp, and which were arranged by band members during the group’s existence. Yet two more tracks are from the same era, never recorded. All in all, the main body of the CD consists of 12 tracks spanning from progressive rock to chanson, hence the album title.
Classic compositions recorded with today’s most modern technology, a new name with musicians of whom you already know: this is worth well hearing!"
