Magma – Bruxelles 1971 au Theatre 140 (Live) (@192)
13 Nov 2009
(Review from progarchives.com)
This album is an ‘official’ bootleg recorded in Brussels at Theater 140 the 12th of November 1971. This was the first public performance of Mekanik Kommandoh which became the basis for their landmark Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh. We also have here the live versions of the fusionairy debut album Kobaia songs, from the line-up
The album contains three songs off of Kobaia. Stoah, Kobaia, and Aina. The whole of the 1001 degrees Centigrade album, and two works in the formative phases at that point. The aforementioned Mekanik Kommandoh, and Sowiloi which would turn up later on the outakes album Inedits. The one thing that really stands out between this album and the previous versions of songs, is the Rhodes Piano and it’s central place in the live Magma sound. Many acoustic parts in Kobaia were played instead by the Rhodes.
Being an official bootleg, don’t expect 100% perfect sound quality. That said the quality is never a hinderance to the enjoyment of the album.

- Christian Vander / drums, vocals, organ, percussion
