MUSIQUE BARBARE VAN KAREL APPEL (1963)

It's not on the NWW list, but it could be !
Karel Appel is a dutch artist, born in 1921, died in 2006, co-founder of the CoBrA group alongside Alechinski and Asger Jorn, avant-garde painter, sculptor, poet and at least experimental musician. You can get more informations on wikipedia (eng), fluctuat (fr) and here.
Appel was influenced by Dubuffet and his "art brut"/"outsider art" theory, and in this very rare record you can listening to the same experiments of dissonance and spontaneity we get in the Dubuffet recordings (go to ubuweb).

I've used snippets of this album for a mix-tape to a skateboard contest sometime back in '85 or so. Been a lot of fun! Never thought that I will have chance to see or listen it again, as I could not recall even the name of the artist. Many thanks for bringing my memories back!

cheers,
