Guy Skornik was a mystic explorer, psychonaut, and gifted musician, who was a key member of Francois Wertheimer's Popera Cosmic collective; he was also deeply immersed in the metaphysical revolutions of his time. He presented television reports, laced with elements of Eastern mysticism, on LSD experiences. And then there was Skornik's album, "Pour Pauwells", inspired by the revolutionary writings of Louis Pauwells, one-time counterculture hero and disciple of esoteric spiritualist G. I. Gurdjieff. It is one of a handful of classic French progressive pop concept albums of the early 1970's, together with Serge Gainsbourg's "Melody Nelson," Igor Wakévitch's "Hathor", Gérard Manset's "La Mort D'Orion," and Michel Berger's "Puzzle."
