Jonny Teupen – Harpadelic 1969 (MPS)

 

Label : MPS

Value :

Jonny Teupen was one of the strangest and most wonderful artists to record for the MPS label during their glory days and his big instrument was a jazz harp, which he often electrified to great result! Sure, Dorothy Ashby had been making jazz inroads on the instrument in the US at about the same time  but Teupen had a cool sound that was a bit sitar, a bit guitar, and a bit "inside the piano" at his wildest moments. This record is maybe his greatest moment ever and mixes Jonny's harp with vibes from Dave Pike guitar from Volker Kriegel, trumpet from Shake Keane, and drums from Charly Antolini all solid MPS players who really help ground the sound!
