Alf Emil Eik - Joy & Breath Of Eternity (1979)
« on: September 01, 2019, 08:53:45 AM »
I'm a big fan of this mainly instrumental album from 1979 by Alf Emil Eik, bass guitarist, multi-instrumentalist and studio whizz extraordinaire. It reminds me here and there of Yan Tregger, Teddy Lasry, Jacky Giordano and French progressive jazzfunk & library music from the late 70s. It has mellotron and clavinet. It has an arsenal of analog synthesizers. I has raw cosmic funk and ambience. It has some great dramatic passages and moments of great beauty. It goes many places. So here is my rip of a near mint copy. I realize it may be on the fringes of this forum's concern but I thought some of you might like it. (Most of the tracks slide seemlessly into each other, so I saved it as side 1 and side 2).
