Carpe Diem - Cueille Le Jour (1976)

Cueille Le Jour is the second studio album by the French progressive rock band Carpe Diem, recorded in December 1976 at Studio d'Antibes. The album is regarded as an absolute masterpiece in French symphonic rock history. PA: "Once in a while, a piece of music jumps out of the loudspeakers and grabs me by the throat. The opening track Couleurs is one of these pieces of music. The twenty-two minutes of music is a blend of symphonic prog, Canterbury prog and jazz. The opening salvos of moog is just heaven and utter heaven. The rest is a mix of superb vocals and the above mentioned styles of music, pretty much dominated by Claude-Marius David's superb flute and sopransaxophon pieces. Couleurs is a creative triumph for the mankind and one of the best piece of music I have ever heard." (Wiki, Discogs, Prog Archives).
