Crazy record.. jazz, psych, eastern, folk, funk, gospel. French record but they are definitely not singing in French. It's good stuff.
Diggers Digest guy has a write-up:
"Ultra rare concept Lp by pianist from Surinam, Majoie Hajary, directed by trumpet player Roger Guerin. Somewhere between jazz funk and Xian psych with a touch of exotic sounds. It is an amazing record blending fuzz, sitar, bongos, tablas, effects on vocals, with heavy jazz funk rhythm section. On "Prologue" we have a fantastic groove, with funky furious drums, jazz guitar, trumpet solo, sounds a bit like Placebo or Sunbirds. On "Priere", a superb trumpet melody, with hard hitting drums, guitar, tablas, bass ... Absolutely lovely blending of wide influences. Modal jazz groove on "La Mort de Judas". "Le Verbe" sounds like De Roubaix was behind the production. Essential album. "
