FICTION MUSICALE

I suppose I have to give some kudos to the risible Simian sounds that lash out from the grooves of this LP-only one-off, as I cannot tell if they represent an uncredited and exploited primate, a fretted or laryngeal turn by Lourival himself, or the show-stealing flute of Silvia Beraldo which he foolishly handed to a first time flautist who was unfortunately able to produce sounds from the get go. But, apart from this, I profess to enjoying much of "Fiction Musicale", a woodwind and acoustic guitar driven oeuvre of surprisingly mature psych folk that isn't especially concerned with structure or melody, but with moods and sounds. It doesn't get better than the amalgam of THIRD EAR BAND, CAN, BAYON and MAGMA (Argentina) on the opening number, but it doesn't get all that much worse either. Recommended if this sounds like it's in your wheelhouse, especially if you like to hear monkeys more than see them.
