Coeur Magique – Wakan Tanka(1971 FRANCE Jazz-Rock, Prog Rock, Hard Rock)Full Album

Coeur Magique - formed in Paris, France, in 1970 by guitarist Claude Olmos, who would later participate in the legendary band Magma and other smaller bands such as Alan Jack Civilization and Boomerang. The group Coeur Magique released only one album in 1971 during a short period of activity, disbanding soon after in 1972. The album Wakan Tanka has no relation to Zeuhl, but rather to simple and direct psychedelic rock, typical of the time, with some hard rock passages. Highlights include great guitar solos, percussion, and elaborate vocals sung in French. The album is very solid, with 7 quality tracks, but the highlight is "Wakan Tanka", at 9 minutes, "Scène de ménage" and the two parts of "Le cocotier", with a slight Santana feel.
