Group 87 - Postcard From the Volcano
According to ProgArchives.com, “GROUP 87 were formed as a trio of highly-successful session and solo artists in the early eighties. While they existed for only a few years, they left behind two highly-acclaimed instrumental albums that are considered landmarks by many new-age, jazz, and progressive rock artists even today. The band consisted of multi-instrumentalists Mark Isham and Peter Maunu, as well as bassist Patrick O’Hearn.”
This album is not bad. At some points, it’s pretty cool. It’s the album you want to be listening to while you write your early 80’s corporate thriller.
These guys only put out two official record releases, the first titled Group 87 and the second called Experiments in Dada Processing, which is just a wonderfully pretentious pun. This song is the first cut off that album, their final.
Mark Isham went on to score such films as The Hitcher, Point Break, Cool World, Timecop, Blade, Varsity Blues, The Mist, and a slew of other less funny titles.
Here’s a great John C. McGinley scene from Point Break, just for the hell of it.
