2018 Journal #7: Michel Madore, Bayete, Cesar Ascarrunz, AnVision

Michel Madore - La Chambre Nuptiale. 1978 Canada

Instrumental electronic album. A bit static on the whole. Never been reissued.

Bayete - Worlds Around the Sun. 1972 USA

Bayete, Todd Cochran by any other name, is a highly praised jazz release, but I don't hear anything overly special myself. It's... jazz. Good but nothing more.

Cesar Ascarrunz - Cesar 830. 1975 Bolivia

Has a couple of great songs, along the lines of Santana ('See Saw Affair' and 'Gotta Get Away'), but mostly this is fairly typical of the region. I had such high hopes for this title originally.

Anvision - Astralphase. 2012 Poland

Despite purporting the album to be more progressive rock oriented, along the lines of Eloy, this album proved to be somewhat generic prog metal. It's good though.
