Product Description

Jean-Luc Ponty's "Cosmic Messenger," released on January 1, 1978, under Rhino Atlantic, is a captivating blend of jazz fusion, progressive rock, and French jazz that showcases the virtuosity of one of the most innovative violinists in music history. This 37-minute journey through nine tracks is a testament to Ponty's ability to push boundaries and create music that is both technically impressive and deeply engaging.

From the cosmic exploration of the title track to the introspective mood of "Ethereal Mood," Ponty's violin weaves through complex compositions with ease. "The Art of Happiness" and "I Only Feel Good with You" offer moments of warmth and melody, while "Puppet's Dance" and "Fake Paradise" delve into more experimental territories. The album closes with "Egocentric Molecules," a piece that encapsulates the fusion of genres and styles that define Ponty's unique sound.

"Cosmic Messenger" is a testament to Jean-Luc Ponty's mastery of his instrument and his ability to create music that transcends traditional genres. Whether you're a fan of jazz fusion, progressive rock, or simply great music, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression.

This is a 1981 Reissue released as a LP.

    Amazing album... but, my copy has a MISPRINT! Both sides are Side B. The labels are fine. Quite odd! Incredible jazz-fusion. JLP deserves a spot in every collection.
