Title: Zao - 'Z=7L' (Musea)
Product review: Originally released in 1973, as this was Zao's first lp - featuring Francois Cahen (electric piano) and Yochk'o Seffer (clarinet, sax) just after they both left Magma following the release of the band's '1,001 Degrees Centigrades' album. Personally, 'Z=7L' is WAY too experimental for me. Almost painful to sit all the way through. Mauricia Platon's clearly over-the-top dominating vocals is showcased - especially on tracks "Marochsek", the jazzy "Atature" and really out-there "La Soupe". If you're a Magma fan, you should obviously get more out of this CD than I did. Seriously doubt I'll seek out anymore of Zao's music.
