Pop In... Devil's Train

Released

Before joining fellow French library composer Bernard Fevre in creating the enigmatic 1978 synth-disco cult oddity Disco Club as Black Devil, Jacky Giordano had worked up a formidable body of work that fueled spacey plasticine soul and prismatic psych-lounge with wild keyboard and synth flourishes. An often-reissued collector favorite on Editions Montparnasse 2000, it sounds like an oddly yearning luxury near-future staring out into a neon-lit bay, noir jazz and kung-fu funk for a world where only feelings get hurt.
