I'm not completely sold on it yet. For something that's supposed to their proper full length official debut, their isn't really that sufficient jump in quality to take the band's popularity to the next level. Fans of the band will like it. & that's about it; not amazing by any stretch. Though, if I can get over the atypical abundance of electric guitar on it, it might grow on me.o

Their recent tape on Cabin Floor Esoterica is a total departure though. Shorter, weirder & more instrumental songs, conceived as a tribute to Moondog - 'Night Terrors On The Isle Of Louie Hardin'.


Also, re: that Clube Da Esquina record - I listened to that this week too, just forgot to list it. Seriously good though...

There's been a lot of Malicorne & related material turning up on Dime recently. Think it's later 70s Malicorne and a reunion tour by Gilbert Yacoub and one other.
There was also a 1/2 hr video set by Alain Stivell from Cork in '78.

Oddest thing I found related to this stuf was the bassist from AMT slipping into what sounded very similar between numbers when they played live here 2 years back. Isn't La Nova based on similar melodies too?

Gonjasufi - A Sufi & a Killer
got that from Demonoid last week. Think it described it as arabic surf music but it gets a bit weirder than that very trippy in places. Wasn't sure when it was from though. Bits sound like they're contemporary and others pretty early 70s.
