Description
Pyramid Rare OZ Promo ST LP NM ’80 East EAS081 Aussie Jazz Funk Fusion
Rare Australian Promo LP released in 1980 on East Records. Cat: EAS081. Features unique Record company promotional sleeve.Excellent Aussie jazz, funk fusion featuring dreamy keys, pulsin’ funk laden rhythm section and driving horns. “Song for Bobby” composed by David Hirschfelder, features Bob Venier on Flugelhorn. The cutting edge Australian jazz-fusion band Pyramid achieved cult status and went on to gain top billing at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1983. It comprised David Hirschfelder on Keys, Bob Venier on Trumpet/Flugelhorn, David Jones on Drums, and Roger McLachlan on Bass. According to David: “Song For Bobby was written for and dedicated to Bobby Venier, Pyramid's wonderful Trumpet/Flugelhorn player and inspirational "guru". I always thought of Bobby's sound as the "spiritual voice" of Pyramid. The melody seems reminiscent of a Neapolitan style of melodic writing that reflects Bobby's Italian heritage. Whilst I was totally unaware of this unconscious creative thought at the time, it now seems really obvious to me in hindsight.”
