      j'ai une autre version semblable à celle de 81 mais le macaron est jaune. Si quelqu'un en a un, dites-le moi.

        The repressing of this Max Cilla, La Flute Des Mornes Vol. 1 LP is stunning. For a sparse recording of mostly just flute, it's sounds incredibly rich and full almost orchestral but with folk music. LP plays dead quiet. No warps, not pressed off center. Since nobody has left a review, I'd thought I'd leave one. Max deserves more recognition and audiophiles should feel confident to take a chance on this one. Yusef Lateef would have been proud.

        Vol.2 comes 8 years later in 1989 and that too is beautiful, albeit a tiny bit more modern.

        Born in 1944 on Martinique island, Max Cilla worked his whole life to resurrect the bamboo flute played by his forebears in the fields from the relative oblivion into which it had fallen in the early 20th century. At first, Max Cilla built them. He went up into his native coastal hills to manufacture them according to traditional rules used in India. Using a simple piece of rough wood, he fabricated a noble instrument of great historical significance that showed the way for a younger generation in search of its identity. "I came up with the name of the coastal hills flute", Cilla asserts. Fascinated by Cuban music and Latin rhythms, he composed & played his own songs accompanied by the island’s traditional percussions. He recorded and released La Flute des Mornes Vol.1 in 1981. Max Cilla played with Archie Shepp in Paris, recorded on Bonga’s album Angola 74, shared the stage with Tito Puente & Machito and keeps on playing today
