Hi Mike. Even though I own copies of about 9 releases, three personal recommendations would be:
- Mouvement.Rythme.Etude
- Le Livre des Morts Egyptien
- L'homme a la Camera
I think the first one listed is an interesting precursor to today's microsound esthétique. I know that Philips has reissued two of these among several other releases which I have yet to get, but as is usually the case with Philips, they charge an arm and a leg for a single CD release... I hope at least part of the reason is that they pay artist royalties...
Best, Dale
