Troupeau Bleu (reissue) vinyl

This newly reissued classic is the iconic debut album by the legendary French jazz-funk band Cortex, first released in 1975. The group was initially formed only a year earlier by Alain Mion, Alain Gandolfi and Jeff Huttner, but Cortex quickly became a favourite among funky jazz collectors. Recorded in just two days, the album blends a unique mix of flavours and has a rather unclassifiable and stunning electric groove. With its fresh, warm and funky vibes, Troupeau Bleu has been a timeless LP for many years and one that has been influencing producers worldwide ever since its release: it's been sampled by renowned artists like Rick Ross, Madlib, DJ Day and DJ Cam, thereby cementing its status as must-have.
