FIRST EVER REISSUE OF BRION GYSIN'S 80'S CULT AVANT-FUNK CLASSIC PRODUCED IN FRANCE BY RAMUNTCHO MATTA AND FEATURING DON CHERRY, LIZZY MERCIER DESCLOUX AND ELLI MEDEIROS

Wewantsounds is delighted to reissue Brion Gysin's cult avant funk album produced in Paris by Ramuntcho Matta in the early 80's. The hugely influential Brion Gysin who, with his friend William Burroughs, was revered by the likes of David Bowie, Brian Jones, Laurie Anderson, Genesis P-Orridge, is accompanied here by Matta and French post punk stalwarts Yann Le Ker on bass (from the group Modern Guy) and Frederic Cousseau on drums (from Suicide Romeo) plus special guests including Don Cherry, Elli Medeiros, Lizzy Mercier Descloux, Caroline Loeb and Senegalese drummer Prosper Niang (Xalam). This is the first time the album is reissued on vinyl, augmented with bonus tracks and a new introduction by Gysin scholar Jason Weiss.
