Tonton Macoute - Revisited Edition- [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [Blu-spec CD]

Tonton Macoute is a British progressive rock band, founded in 1970 in the County of Berkshire. The saxophonist and vocalist Dave Knowles the bassist and guitarist Chris Gavin had already played in various bands in Berkshire County when they met the organist Paul French and the drummer Nigel Reveler, who had a similar career as musicians in the north of England. The debut album by Tonton Macoute came out in 1971; it remained the only original release of the band. The music of Tonton Macoute is strongly influenced by jazz, so the band could simply regarded as a progressive rock band as well as a jazz rock band. In the recent decade, Paul French has been to reform Tonton Macoute to produce more material. His thinking in producing a new depiction of this album was to im-agine how the band would have sounded in the modern age and with more time to perfect the original tracks. This stunningly powerful album represents a timeless Jazz-Rock masterpiece that sounds just as good today as it ever did.
