Rob Jo Star Band- S/T (1975)

"Very great & unknown French quasi prog/psych hard rocker originally released on the Dom label in 1975. Even amongst the European psychedelic cognoscenti, Rob Jo Star Bands sole lp is somewhat of an enigma. Careening forward & stumbling over 13th Floor Elevators bleeb alien moves, Velvet Underground sustained vibes & Stooges-like guitar fuzz, Rob Joe Star created a singular masterpiece that is truly incomparable to anything released in or around its time (circa 1975). Along with the Angel Face Wild Odyssey lp, one of Frances long obscured musical treasures. French import, edition of 300." (Fusetronsound)

Far-out, bizarro French psych/protopunk from 1975. Like an incoherent, uber-primitive Velvets or Simply Saucer collaborating with Pierre Henry- what with all the freaky synth doodlings and such. Lyrics sung in a barely decipherable "English", with something of a cut-rate Damo Suzuki vibe. Freaking sweet! LP reissue on Pomme. Many thanks to yellow5 for the rip.
