(Art-Rock, Experimental) D.D.A.A. - En concert - 1986, MP3, 192 kbps

Two early live performances by french leaders of shamanism made rock – or is it the other way round? The recordings here offer intoxicating live renditions of vintage D.D.A.A. songs for one of the most rock-oriented releases by these people. The A side has bass guitar a-plenty, remnant from Young Marble Giants/Alternative TV’s music, I guess. The analog sound suits the music perfectly, contrary to some recent harsh sounding D.D.A.A. CD reissues. Drawings and layout typical from Jean-Luc André’s art of the times, especially his comic books (‘Mutants Du Kwan-Dong’ and ‘Passage De l’Etoile Ming’).
