“SUPER COOL INSTRUMENTALS!
Messe Pour Le Temps Present – Pierre Henry/Michel Colombier
Recently picked up another not so easy to find vinyl copy of the album that this is from when we recently did Amoeba Records LA “What’s In My Bag.”
Some of the best musique concrete from one of its pioneers, French composer Pierre Henry, generally overshadowing here the accompanying always groovin if sometimes underwhelming psychedelic instrumentals. With some very cool electronics thrown in, some additionally by collaborator Michel Columbier.
Originally scored in 1967 for a Maurice Bejart ballet.
With the original version of the better known Psyche Rock still tops.”
