Climax, Bolivia ***REISSUED***


Climax - Gusano Mecanico. 1974 Lyra

***Reissued by Lyra as Edición Completa 2003

Didn't realize this had been reissued legally by the parent label until 2019!

An extraordinary recent discovery. Mostly instrumental over 6 long tracks with blazing guitar - played avant style ala Pinhas or Fripp at times. Best album I've heard from Bolivia outlasting the also excellent debut by Wara. LP reissue is out on World in Sound, so I suspect they will also cover the CD soon. Great Escher cover would be an excellent candidate for a Japanese mini-LP too!

Priority: 2

2003 (complete); 9/6/09 (new entry)
