- Опубликовано: 5 май 2024
- Hi friends! This song was suggested by a very generous person who bought us many coffees to have Dave give this one a listen.
Dave had never heard of the band Magma before but he definitely liked what he heard.
The bass is the stand out, for obvious reasons and Dave also enjoyed the swinging and slamming drums!
Thanks for your generosity and thanks for the great suggestion!

Never heard of these guys, but that was thoroughly entertaining. Love watching and listening to great musicians. Thanks guys, glad you’re back.
KMX is intially a composition of the bassist Jannick Top which was a member of the band in 1973-1974. Here Phillip Bussonet is very ( i mean very) inspired by the playing of Jannick Top : the original version of this song was published on the album "Inedit" in 1977 ( it is a compilation of live and studio song ) ruclips.net/video/mcuuzSadODA/видео.html&ab_channel=Magma-Topic
However Bussonet , who has been member of Magma for more than twenty years, is a master here !
Good ear. This is very atypical Magma, who do have a wide range though, and attract an eclectic mix of fans. Metalheads like them for pieces like this: ruclips.net/video/HAkSVTDfBVE/видео.html and this: ruclips.net/video/XP1rjs6TCsQ/видео.html . Those who appreciate the avantgarde gravitate to this: ruclips.net/video/8YkBjizw38c/видео.html or this: ruclips.net/video/z42dup9Zs4A/видео.html . Their early stuff included horns and tended towards hard jazz like this: ruclips.net/video/XYgM6cMIzDM/видео.html . Me, I like this: ruclips.net/video/wP3wtV_1v-I/видео.html

John Coltrane is Vander's great influence. Christian nearly lost himself when John died and he has honored him every since. There are compositions he has done where the Coltrane influence is greater, as with his band Offering. Or in some of his longer competitions, such as Another Day (Offering, 45 minutes). I've seen Tony Williams Lifetime and Magma both live, and yes, Tony is an influence.
Dave, I've been listening to Magma for almost 50 years. In 1988 I wrote about them in the music magazine Option and I wrote the entry on them at Sea of Tranquility. Magma is the band of the drummer, Christian Vander, who is one of the great drummers- a small kit, never plays a song the same way, is intuitive and astonishing. This song was written by a former Magma bassist, the equally legendary Jannik Top. It is not an improvisation. Here, it is played by another former bassist, Phillip Bussonett, also known as Bubu. Phillip is one of the greats- check him out of songs like Slag Tanz. Phillip was actually fired more than 2 years ago, as Christian felt a need to shake up the band. The new bassist then? Jimmy Top- son of Jannik! And not the first of kids of former players, either, as Himiko and Antoine Paganotti sang for Magma many years after their dad Bernard played bass. One of the sad things here is the guitarist in this clip, James Mac Gaw, died nearly yeas ago after a 4-yr battle with brain cancer. You should check his incredible guitar solo on their composition Kohntarkosz, Magma's masterwork according to Vander (not Mekanik Detruktiw Kommandoh, as most would assume). Magma is a legendary band, now in its 55th year of existence and still playing live! The current iteration of the band has 7 singers, 2 keyboards, bass, guitar and drums. I'll follow this comment up with a few links.

Apologies for several posts now, but I thought you'd like to see eh current version of the band: ruclips.net/video/hESllwEqUGw/видео.html
I've heard of these guys and listened to a few tracks. It's good to pick an instrumental tune because their lyrics/vocals are definitely an acquired taste! But this cut I liked. Cool jam. Here's an obscure but worthy track for Dave to check from a band from Indiana called, Roadmaster, who were discovered by Todd Rundgren (who even produced a few of their tracks), their sound is like a mix of Boston and Styx. This tune is called, Hey World. ruclips.net/video/ZA70w3DJaAY/видео.html
