Alain Markusfeld – Le Son Tombé Du Ciel (1971)

Le Son Tombé Du Ciel (1971) is the second studio release by French multi-instrumentalist Alain Markusfeld. The album is known as a milestone in the French underground scene, where it blends influences from psychedelic rock, prog, and early jazz fusion.

PA: “Alain Markusfeld’s second album, released in 1971, one year after his first studio effort, shows a more progressive direction thanks to the long eponym track. It features two important french musicians: Joël Dugrenot on bass (Clearlight, Delired cameleon family, Zao) and Laurent Thibault (Magma) on electric piano . While the first album was a little amateurish, “Le son tombé du ciel” exhibits greater technical mastery and cleaner production. It has been recorded at the famous Hérouville château. (…) Although the album suffers from its shortnes, the music remains original and inspired, with all the early 70’s freshness.” (Wiki, Discogs, Prog Archives).
