Zao - Shekina
SKU
01-MUSEA 4067
1975 release from this French fusion band that was their last with Yochk'o Seffer. They recorded this with a string quartet to excellent effect; Yochk'o liked the sound so much that when he left, he enlised the same string quartet on his classic "Ghilgoul" album. I like Zao a lot in general, but I consider this album to be their best. Recommended.
"Zao was a fantastic French fusion band that released a half dozen albums in the '70s. Formed by saxophonist Yochk'o Seffer and keyboardist Francois Cahen after leaving an early incarnation of Magma, Zao had a strong zeuhl sensibility, which gave their jazz-fusion stylings a unique character."-Rob Walker/Expose
