Ungava is an obscure canadian band from late '70's releasing one album selftitled in 1977. They are one of the many bands that emerge from Quebec scene, but they come with an album quite late , when most of the bands already establish themself in major league of prog music, at least some of them. The music Ungava playes is rather a more towards heavy prog in places , with cruchy guitar lines, the an usual folk band, this style is very well melted with more guitar orientated elements ,some fantastic sax and flute moments gives a special atmosphere to this album. Here and there are soe jazzy parts with sporadic vocal arrangements, the album is mainly instrumental .
--------------------------------------------
Québec group Ungava's first and only album (1977) is a seamless blend of progressive rock, jazz fusion and pastoral folk. At its core a virtuosic trio of guitar, bass and drums, the band adds electric piano, sax and flute to great textural effect. Long neglected, the original issue is now a highly valued collector's item.
