prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

What!

She is now a permanent resident of Las Vegas!LOL. She is making money in the desert very far from the mind of a truly quebec prog fan. Oh yes that's true, she is born in Québec...

Your heart will go on in the dislike of Celiene Dijon.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

BTW,I should mention that the original soundtrack of the porn flick "L'Apres-ski" will be reissued this coming january 25.It features the band The Illustration who released an excellent album of brass-funk tinged psych prog in the late 60's.They changed name to Man Made and released another album in 75 wich feature the most spectacula LP sleeve I have ever seen.

they should be on PA.

Reminds me of a cross between Edgar Winter "Frankenstein" and  "Holly Jolly Christmas" (sung by Burl Ives, of course). With a touch of Poison Girls.

Your reply implies that I know only one prog group from France???
..........
The line in my post contains approx. a mere 20 words, yet you seem to have failed to spot the word , "colony".
Either its attention deficit disorder, or your taking the piss...or just dont care.
 
The lp in question was recorded in Montreal but the members all are from this island which, although only some 300 miles from the province of Quebec (and even though their currency is Canadian), is independent of Canada and a member of the Republic of France.
 
Oh oh!
Seems I have expended all of 50 words minimum here.
Hope this post is not lost on you.


I didn't understand that you were talking about The Republic of France, now it's clear, but i still don't know the band in question.

Maledictus sound was prog in the way that they brike some ground never broken before,IMHO.
Machines have landed did sound like the bands you ve mentinned but also like some mid era Floyd and perhaps some space symph German bands;Eloy,Novalis,ect...
