PELOQUIN SAUVAGEAU - VINYL LAISSEZ-NOUS VOUS EMBRASSEZ OU VOUS AVEZ MAL [VINYL]

Popis - LAISSEZ-NOUS VOUS EMBRASSEZ OU VOUS AVEZ MAL [VINYL]:
Originally released in 1972, 'Laissez-Nous Vous Embrasser Où Vous Avez Mal' is one of the most original records ever made in Québec. Though avant-garde, it still managed to garner radio support and wide public attention thanks to the trance-like track 'Monsieur L'Indien.' The "Us" in 'Let Us Kiss You Where It Hurts' is Claude Péloquin, controversial poet, and Jean Sauvageau, electronic music pioneer. Together after memorable trips and artistic happenings throughout the '60s, they came up with this eccentric avant-garde masterpiece. With topics ranging from revolution ('Emiliano'), to exploitation ('Monsieur L'Indien'), vasectomy ('Sterilization') or even scatology ('Mama Vagina'), the record exploded onto the local scene during the dark ages of Québec Pop Music (something very similar to what's happening now). Claude Péloquin, the vocalist, can be heard laughing, screaming, babbling into the mike as he "cracks open a brew" overtop a cocktail of explosive and highly original electronic music. A wall of sound shifting from synthetic psychedelic ambience, doped out choir to fucked up western. Techno spoken word? Electroclash? Experimental rock? Pretty far from the hippie stuff you'd expect for the times!
