Frank Valmont & Synchro Rhythmic Ecclectic Orchestra - Malere (1975)

(Moshe Naim Records - MN 30.023). 

Here's a promo copy of a Frank Valmont track "Malére", perfectly balanced between west indies unique rhythms and 70s modern jazz.
He's mainly known as a composer in Guadeloupe and Martinique form the 60s, but also released few records including a LP at Moshe Naim label (MN10023) backed with Synchro Rhythmic Ecclectic Language (a west indies jazz band already introduced in Muzzicaltrips through a great and pretty rare afrojazz 7 inch here).
Some of his compositions also were used as soundtrack for cinema in the 70s, and his cultural activism was multi-approach, including writing and painting (and gastronomy!). 

Synchro Rythmic Ecclectic Language (afrojazz 70s)

(SONG RECORDS SR 04).

This atypical afro-caribean jazzfunk band includes great musicians as George Edouard Nouel (keyboard), Louis Xavier (bass), Jo Maka (sax). A really groovy blend of influences...
