Rappel: il sort cette semaine !

[Phoebus]

Par hasard si tu connais un bon enregistrement de Franck Zappa, je suis preneur.

[Van Der Graaf Generator]

Salut Phoebus, 
vaste programme, comme disait l’autre, deux albums que j’aime aussi bien pour leur qualité musicale que technique:

Waka/Jawaka (un peu "jazzy") et The Grand Wazzoo (façon big band)

Décidément ils vont traire la vache jusqu'à la dernière goutte...

Cette époque se trouve déjà sur 3 albums: Fillmore East-June 1971, Just another band from L.A., et le double Playground psychotics.......

Il me semble que ça suffit.

Ah, j'oubliais Carnegie Hall 1971 , 4 CDs....
