Art Ensemble of Chicago - Thème de Yoyo
Do you like funky, soulful, avant-jazz flavoured with just a little bit of the pop sensibility? Chances are you probably do. Another classic for you today, the Art Ensemble of Chicago's Thème de Yoyo. It's the opening track to their 1970 album Les Stances A Sophie, recorded in Paris, and relating to the obscure new wave film of the same name.
I was shocked when I first heard this. I'd been listening to the Art Ensemble for about 20 years, on and off, and I thought I knew something about what they sounded like. But Thème de Yoyo defied all of my expectations. It's warm and sexy and intimate; with Fontella Bass singing over a Malachi Favors bass riff. Listen to this, and I guarantee you will never think about camembert in the same way again.
