Noisette was recorded January 4th, 1970, by the short-lived quintet formation of the group, this was this line-up's first gig and this is the concert and same recording that gave us Facelift on Third!
Noisette showcases a band in transition from their earlier psychedelic/progressive sound towards the jazz rock sound of Third & Fourth. It features the quintet performing versions of material from their 1st two albums as well as material not available on their studio albums.
Mastered directly off of the 50 year old 15 ips master tapes, this release boasts superb live sound for the time period, & includes rare, unseen photos and liner notes by Aymeric Leroy.
