Drum Circus - Magic Theatre flac mp3 download

A remarkable and very obscure exclusive discovery by Garden of Delights. Drum Circus was the project of three Swiss drummers: Peter Giger (pre-Dzyan), Marc Hellman and Alex Bally, previously undocumented except for a few gigs in the early-1970's. They also recorded this LP, aided by local talents from Brainticket and jazz winds player Gerd Dudek. MPS, however, didn't know what to do with such a strange album, and it remained unreleased until this 2003 CD issue.An extremely diverse and unclassifiable album that bridges too many genres to classify, it's much much more that its title suggests. The Brainticket connection is very strong with Joël Vandroogenbroeck's multi-instrumental work, and the unmistakable voice of Carole Muriel taking it towards Brainticket's CELESTIAL OCEAN at times. This is amongst an array of percussion work-outs and free-jazz freak-outs counterpointing other more rock focused sections. Fans of Timothy Leary will also find it a treat. It all amounts to what is a challenging listen even today.
