St-Erhart ~ France

Paprika (1980)

St Erhart, on their one released LP, play a punchy type of jazz fusion, that gets pretty free towards the end. The lead instruments here are saxophone and tuned percussion, with guest trumpet. Not a guitar or keyboard to be found. Despite that, the music still belongs to jazz fusion rather than pure jazz. A good album that will always struggle to find its audience.

No reissues as of 3/19/25
