Pražský Výběr - Žízeň (1978/2020) [Hi-Res]

The debut full-length album of the group Pražský výběr (from the initial jazz period) was released in 1978 by Panton.

Twenty-four-year-old keyboard player Michael Kocáb is the sole author of all compositions and arrangements. Expansive compositional areas, with classical music techniques, elaborate rhythmic changes, but also extensive improvised passages and virtuoso performance by a 4-5-member ensemble supplemented by a whole host of famous guests.
A sonically colorful recording oscillating from classical piano, through analog synthesizers, from harmonica, to big band brass section, from electric guitars to sitar, supplemented by vocal accompaniment by the members of Marsyas.
