FLAMENGO - Kure V Hodinkach - CZE Supraphon Remastered Press - LISTEN

A remastered, beautiful-sounding version of one of my most beloved records from the former Eastern Bloc, released in 1972 (and immediately withdrawn from the market by the Czechoslovak censorship)! It is without doubt in the top three of the best rock records from behind the Iron Curtain and probably the most interesting album ever released in the former Czechoslovakia! Great, very engrossing, jazzy, decidedly European playing in the vein of Colosseum and If (but gentler, without rough edges) - with charmingly catchy melodies, a very solid rhythm section, sharp guitar parts and really nice Czech vocals by the former vocalist of Blue Effect. This is not yet another Spanish or Italian mediocre copy of Mahavishnu Orchestra, but progressive jazz rock from the highest world shelf! Gatefold sleeve. A MUST!
