Jean-Louis Bucchi (electronic, jazz, classical...)

I've had J-L. Bucchi's Sunflower for some years now, and I've mentioned it before in the forum in the past, but I don't think that Bucchi has been suggested for inclusion before.  I was put in mind of this when i saw a fusion poll with B names and that got me thinking about two of my faves, Donlad Byrd, which I did suggest for Electric Byrd before, but there were concerns about discography, and Bucchi's Sunflower.

J-L. Bucchi was the Speed Limit keyboardist.  Sunflower features Jannick Top and Patrice Tison.  it's a combination of jazz, classical, electronic, and rock and should be of interest to RIO oriented listeners.  His later stuff is also interesting, and is generally electronic.  Can be synth-pop New Agey, ambient or more experimental.  He's made library music.

Can stream music of his here: http://www.musicme.com/#/Jean-Louis-Bucchi/

Here is a direct link to the Sunflower album for streaming music from:

I noticed that there is a fair amount of his music on youtube, but still not enough for evaluation, a reason I didn't  suggest it before was because I do like to post youtube clips when suggesting them, and don't always feel like uploading them -- and, to be honest, I'm more interested in the suggestion process itself, and mentioning music I like, than the actual addition.  Since I'm not a reviewer, additions probably don't matter to me as much as some others. 




I was ningplan to upload some music to youtube later for evaluation purposes from Sunflower, which ranges from Fusion, classical, to electronic, but the above musicme link serves the purpose.

A track of his off of April Orchestra (vol. 13 -- I really love this one):

EDIT: I will upload more videos later, despite the musicme link, since that's probably a turn off for most people (as would be the music for many).  This is just a  quite short funky one off Sunflower, not that any off that album are that long -- limited time and the Windows Live moviemaker takes a long time to render for each (if I dispense with images, then it would be faster to save).



Suggesting as a possibility for Eclectic -- see what people think, or maybe Prog Related, see next post.
