La Zone Des Tempêtes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'This was of course not the first time that François Tusques was a ‘headline act’. In 1965, he recorded, with other like- minded Frenchmen (François Jeanneau, Michel Portal, Bernard Vitet, Beb Guérin and Charles Saudrais), the first album of free jazz in France, named... Free Jazz. In 1967, Tusques again served up Le Nouveau Jazz, in the company of Barney Wilen (and Beb Guérin, Jean-François Jenny-Clark, and Aldo Romano).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThree years later, between May and September 1970, the pianist recorded, at his home, Piano Dazibao, an album on which he multiplied joyful escapades as a critical iconoclast. The following year Tusques recorded Dazibao N°2, which shows him as an incisive commentator of his times.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollowing in the footsteps of Don Cherry, who he had met a few years earlier in Paris, Tusques made a plea for “friendship between all the peoples of the world” to the sound of Universalist hymns which transported us from Africa to Asia. But it is really a song to America, evoking the assassination of the activist George Jackson and the mutiny in Attica prison, before covering “Seize the Time” by Elaine Brown – three years after the release of Dazibao N°2, she became the first (and only) woman to lead the Black Panther Party.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe turmoil of Piano Dazibao, was opposed, on Dazibao N°2, by long, labyrinthine tracks with alternating discords and repetitions. Often using prepared piano, Tusques was more percussive (even heady) than ever, exposing a melody with solid hammer strikes or painting an image which radiated peace in spite of the storms. Piano Dazibao and Dazibao N°2 thus form the two sides of one coin, which displays the effigy of François Tusques, an international national monument!'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Souffle Continu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41609459826844,"sku":"FFL074","price":24.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/unnamed_1_33936d40-fa10-4d21-b59c-3725c0bd9fe4.jpg?v=1651077636","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/francois-tusques-dazibao-n-2","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
