Embryo - We Keep On (1973) Live ,Jazz, Rock
Strong blend of jazz,rock and ethnic music.
The permanent member is CHRISTIAN BURCHARD (drums,vibes,percussions,mellotrone) who's been briefly involved in early AMON DUUL but we're here far from krautrock and it's hard to compare EMBRYO to anything else. On this album the presence of CHARLIE MARIANO (sax,flute,nagasuram) injects a tasty jazz sap into the music,sometimes leading the band to free shores but anyway the music stays accessible,original and good.I remember at the time i got this album,i bought it just a few minutes after hearing it in a little records shop though i came in to get POPOL VUH albums.This record is kind of journey through india,asia and africa and will fit to all adventurous listeners,i don't know if it corresponds to what most of poeple names PROG ,but i'm sure this music is in progress.I give 4 stars. The artcover is beautiful.
