RELEASE DATE

Reissue, originally released in 1970. Cool library-styled French album. Psychedelic, proggy jazz-funk with Brazilian/bossa touches. Groovy flute by
Bernard Wystraëte
plus heavy bass, drums (by
André Ceccarelli
), violin, occasional fuzz-wah guitar and
Urszula Dudziak
-like scat vocals. In 1970, the AFA label asked flautist Bernard Wystraëte to register a "pop" album after the worldwide impact of progressive bands like
Aphrodite's Child
and
Jethro Tull
. Bernard recruited some of his friends who were professional musicians and Structure was born. He wrote a collection of songs influenced by progressive rock, jazz and Brazilian music. The
Pop Music
album was recorded live in the studio to give a "live show" feel. It was released later that year housed in a superb psychedelic sleeve. The band even toured across France and several countries at the same time that Bernard and other Structure members started backing famous French singer
Marie Laforêt
live. After the good reception given to the album, another label asked Bernard to record a Structure 45.
Dilatation/Scale
was released under a new line-up. RIYL:
