The Grandmothers of Inventions are an opportunity for FZ fans to dive back into a memorable past that alas will never return. This live double in Bremen features a slightly different lineup from the one I witnessed in Florence in 2004 in which not only Don Preston excelled, but also Napoleon M. Brock and Roy Estrada (before the latter ran into serious legal problems in USA: bad story!). In this double CD appears again Don Preston who acts as Pygmalion of the group and Bunk Gardner (saxophonist and flutist of the first hour). The other elements are different from the previous ones of 2004, but no less for the technique of execution. The first CD stands out for "Pound for a Brown" and "I'm the Slime where Don Preston, Bunk Gardner and the rhythm section are very effective.

This major English band of the 60s, precursor and founder of hard rock blues, exerted a decisive influence on a whole section of rock history.

Olivier Greif was an outstanding composer and pianist who died before his time. His complex, charismatic personality made an impression on every artist who encountered him. A keen duty of remembrance has animated them ever since, now relayed by a young generation who have been captivated by his vibrant, tragic and yet radiant music. Olivier Greif was born in Paris on the 3 rd of January, 1950, to Jewish, Polish émigré parents. (His father, a pianist, and survivor of Auschwitz, became a neuropsychiatrist.) Olivier entered the Paris Conservatoire at the age of ten. At the age of seventeen, he obtained his first prize for composition in Tony Aubin’s class, then going on to hone his skills in New York with Luciano Berio. From the age of eleven until he was thirty-one, he composed highly individualistic works (including Chants de l’Âme in 1979), outside current trends.
