Recreation - Music or Not Music 1972

This is a Belgian band born in the late 60s, whose origins take place in their native Belgium, with the drummer Francis Lonneux and the bassist Jean-Paul Van Den Bossche who previously played in the band '' Les Mistigris '', founded by Turkish singer Baris Manco, with whom they managed to record three singles. At the end of the 1960s, Manco left the group to return to his native Turkey, that is when Lonneux and Van Den Bossche met by chance keyboardist Jean-Jacques Falaise, with whom they would quickly get along, forming this prog trio that they would call '' Recreation ''.

During the three years that their activity lasted they released two studio albums, "Recreation" in 1970, being a debut of six instrumental pieces dominated by heavy Hammond organs, bass, and drums, within a psychedelic sound. Already for their second album, the group is heading towards a much more ambitious and experimental sound, publishing '' Music or not Music '', from 1972, a more than extensive work full of small pieces that make it an authentic sound adventure in the one to enter and explore. Excellent album, don't miss it.
