Label: RCA – NE 4, Neon – NE 4, Neon – NE4 Format: Vinyl, LP, Album Country: UK Released: 1971 Genre: Rock Style: Jazz-Rock, Prog Rock price: €224$ to €350$ Tonton Macoute rose from the ashes of a poxy pop/rock British group, Windmill, on the heels of the passing of the guitarist Dick Scott. The remaining members decided to soldier on under the same monicker which was probably inspired by John Jenkins’ self-titled album (1970) and they released one album only through Neon. Their style falls into the British jazz-rock category with the intense presence of the saxophone and their prog rock is mainly influenced by jazz. Dave Knowles’ wind instruments (mostly saxophone, but also flute and clarinet) steal the show and define this album. Colours and moods alternate often on the record which is fantastic – no two ways about that. There are also plentiful rhythm changes and shifts in sentiments, the rhythm section provided by Chris Gavin (bass) and Nigel Reveler (drums) is seminal and playful and Paul French does an amazing job on the keyboards. The harmonized voices of French and Knowles add a wondrous tone to the compositions which maintain an intense improvisational character and a melodic aura is ever-present. After they disbanded, French reappeared on Voyager and State of Play and since then he is vanished from the musical fore. #rarelp #jazz #rarejazzvinyl #progjazz #jazzvinylcollector #progressivejazz #audiograil #firstpressing #analogaudio #prog ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnKQKMifp_0
