Description
Jean Luc Hamonet Et Algue - Melodie Melodie Rock 1982 (Kiosque D'Orphee). Free CD of the vinyl transfer.
The record plays great and has been cleaned with a VPI Machine. More information or pictures available on request.
Vinyl: EX/ Cover: EX
Hamonet's sole album (the only one I know of anyway) is a pleasant instrumental romp focusing on our protagonist's guitar and flute work. Some of it is light tropical and breezy as is typical of the era. However, there are some fiery moments to behold, in particular the closer 'Masques' is right out of the Heldon playbook. I sure hope there's more like this sitting in a drawer somewhere. A pretty murky recording, so a CD reissue could easily raise this a point or so. Same label as the rare debut album by Rictus.Jean-Luc HAMONET is a talented multi-instrumentalist (guitar, sax, flute) and with the aid of the group which accompanies him (amongst which are the three members of ALGUE) plays a melodious, ethereal, sophisticated and pleasant rock. He offers a solely instrumental music built around the guitar chords, the quiet flowishes of the flute or the sounds of the organ, in a musical tradition very close to CAMEL at the beginning of its career. He elaborates a sometimes delicate, fragile, or rather energetic but always elegant music.
