Anamorphose ~ France

Palimpseste (1986)

Anamorphose's sole work can simply be described as a very active jazz fusion album. At times I'm reminded of Abus Dangereux's debut, and others you'll hear some of Yoch'ko Seffer's 1970s works. The rhythms are smoking throughout! I prefer the tracks where the lead instrument is flute verse the more favored soprano sax, an instrument that can grate on me over time (we can all blame Kenny G. for this). There's some great interludes of violin as well. Good album for the date, especially considering the wasteland that was 1986.
