The European Rhythm Machine has always been one of my favorite projects. Master musicians... and if I had only one thing I could ever listen to again, it would be the improves this group had performed.

Great music.
This not Mr Texier playing bass but Mr Ron Matthewson.
Check well the video, at 2:13 Mr Humair has lot his drums stick (right hand). Then he switches the left one to the right one and take an other stick with his left hand...no problem in leading the tempo !!!

the real wonder is Humair has the drums fitted for left hand drummers but he plays left with the feets only and right with the hands even if hands are playing on a left fitted drums !!!!!!!!!!! Anyway he still today is one of the greater drummer in the world at age of 82 !

Emil , maybe after 6 years you found the reply but if not , this was a concert at Montreux jazz festival 1970 , and this is the B1 track of the records recorded for Pierre Cardin label , just re- released on Cd few years ago . Probably there is a video of the entire concert , as the Montreux crew recorded everything, but not easy to see .
