  2. The album could have been very original with the electric bass and the vocalist but in my opinion the influence of Coltrane is turning to a sort of copy, it would be interesting to listen to more recent recordings of Torrent to check if he have finally broke the link with the father.

  3. correct silence, I know two more albums by Gilles Torrent, more recent: "Desert de sel" and "La traverse' dans le desert". The first is about on the same wave with Terre Engloutie, despite the collaboraton with Bobby Few and Sunny Murray; the second took a world turn. I dojnt know the last two, called Jazz inspiration vol 1 and 2.
    Anyway I like it, a little. I listen and appreciate many kind of music, not only free or improvised, even classical, sometimes, or Zap Mama. No matter where it stands in the history
