LAGAGNAMO: “Saspeupu” (Private – MS-11750) (Record: Excellent/ Jacket: Excellent). Totally obscure and rare 1975 privately pressed in extremely limited quantities (100 to 250 maybe?) Quebec - Canadian Lo-Fi underground/ basement free improvisation/ cum-blues/ free jazz slide that rarely surfaces and hardly ever makes it out into the sunlight. Although the record is obscure beyond belief, it has its minor claim to fame as local famous blues guitarist Bob Walsh plays on it as well as members of the progressive rock band Ungava. This loosely thrown together line-up of players is responsible for the deep subterranean vibe that oozes out of it all, resulting in a weird hellbroth of high-tension sounds that leaps into a melting pot of styles, quelling the darker sides of trench warfare blues, basement free jazz, malicious primitive psych vibes and plain weird sounds. It culminates in a panoramic sound floating somewhere between early Soft Machine and the boundless fury of the Mothers. The album is very rare but still largely undetected, breathing out a tornado of dusty low-fi sounds floating on an intuitive approach that is both impervious to and not responsible for trends of any kind. It was recorded live in a bar and it feels like you just stand next to humming amplifiers, making that the whole affair is blessed with the aspirational surges out of the concealed depths of improvisational interplay intertwined with the V.U.’s urbanized take on basement rock. What a ride!!!"
