Ecotopia is an album by American world musicjazz group Oregon featuring Ralph Towner, Paul McCandless, Glen Moore, and Trilok Gurtu, who replaced Collin Walcott following his accidental death, recorded in 1987 and released on the ECM label. It is no wonder that he began the ECM New Series a few years before, given the junk churned out by some of label's stable between 1983 and 1988. Oregon - Ecotopia 1987. To favorites 1 Download album.

That said, and allowing for the exception that Oregon was leaning in a somewhat, shall we say, more accessible direction before Walcott's untimely demise, there is no excuse for this waste of studio time and Manfred Eicher's energy. It is no wonder that he began the ECM New Series a few years before, given the junk churned out by some of label's stable between 1983 and 1988, and this record is a stellar example.

And it ushered in two new aspects of Oregon. The first was a more direct use of synthesizers although Towner had used them on two previous albums, they were used mostly for flavoring. On Ecotopia, they are front and center in two compositions Twice Around the Sun, Ecotopia and distinct elements of two others Leather Cats, Song of the Morrow. Ecotopia, 1987. Innocente, 06:19.
