THE MECHANICS - ARE DANCING IN YOUR HEAD

The Mechanics are a Belgian experimental music ensemble. It features Mauro Pawlowski, Rudy Trouvé, Jean-Yves Evrard, Roman Hiele and Eric Thielemans.
I always try to keep an eye out for what Mauro Pawlowski and Rudy Trouvé are doing. These guys don't stop to amaze me. On this "The Mechanics Are Dancing In Your Head" album, they join forces. Nothing wrong with that  :-)

The album title refers to Ornette Coleman's 1977 release "Dancing In Your Head".
On the first track, 'Ode Aan Ornette' (Ode To Ornette), Rudy Trouvé yells "Jazz Ain't Dead, It Just Kinda Smells Funny." There are worse places to quote Frank Zappa.  :-)

Experimental rock.
Great stuff for Christmas. Or any other day, that is.

Here's 'Ode Aan Ornette', performed live at the Jazz Middelheim festival.
