FFL014 lp, 2016
Have you ever imagined what a meeting between The Silver Apples and Sonny Sharrock would sound like?
In 1974, Jean-Jacques BIRGÉ, one of the first French synthesizer players (ARP 2600) along with virtuoso guitarist Francis GORGÉ, created some unique improvised pop music.
The unreleased and flamboyant recordings would be the source for the cult 1975 album Défense de, by BIRGÉ GORGÉ SHIROC, before founding Un Drame Musical Instantané with Bernard VITET.
Incl. insert with linear notes from Jean-Jacques Birgé & Francis Gorgé.
