And now for something completely different. This wonderful release from the legendary Crammed Disc label back in 1977, came into my possession after one of my shopping sprees on Amazon, a few years ago. Although from Belgium, Aksak Maboul has, to me, a bit of a French feel to it, quirky electronic based music with touches of jazz, classical, folk and minimalist. Catchy instrumental tunes with quite an experimental bent make up most of this disc and it is still a refreshing listen after the 30 years since its release. I was happy when this was randomly selected as today's album and I enjoyed listening to it through the day. If you like a bit of offbeat music then I recommend giving this a listen. My rating 3.5/5
