LEE GAGNON-JEREMIE (ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK), LP, 1972, CANADA


This Quebecois symphonic funk rarity (the score for a ballet, apparently) hits several right notes and a few truly righteous ones over the course of this rare LP, though there's a consistent tension between the lacquerings of limpid orchestration (skirting into the territory of 70's Stayfree maxi pad commercials at its most unctuous moments here) and the funk outbursts, which range from tightly poppin' little numbers laced with Art Webb-ish flute-y flutterings to deeper funk investigations larded with growling and spitting acid wah.
