Georges Grunblatt ~ France

K-Priss (1980)

Georges Grunblatt was an early runnin' buddy of a one Richard Pinhas, and basically represented one half of Heldon on the first 3 albums. On K-Priss, he gathers all of Heldon's alumni, for what would appear to be Heldon VIII. It's not Heldon, but definitely a hybrid of late 70s French synthesized slickness with rip-roarin' guitar rave-ups from Richard Pinhas, and pounding drums from Auger. Like a more energetic Ose, if that makes any sense. Grunblatt for his part turns in some fine piano work. Recorded in 1977, but not released until 1980. Good one.
