Not much later the band changed its name to Ghislain Blues Band and then finally to Blues Bag. In 1968, the band discovered LSD, resulting in a stylistic change towards psychedelia. The band recorded a single for EMI using the name L'Assemblée ('Le Chien') before calling it a day. Then, in 1969, Jacques Dudon made some recordings for a solo-album, but the project collapsed and the music was never issued... until now!

]]> Plvg https://wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com/product/plvg/ Sun, 01 Dec 2019 23:00:00 +0000 http://guerssen.hl1097.dinaserver.com/product/plvg/ It was during the summer tour in July, August and September 1973 that the band under the name of PLVG (acronym for Poligot, Lable, Vilar, Gall) made its debut in front of a dumbfounded audience. Whilst taking a break from touring the following month, the group records a dozen titles at the Ferber studio between November 73 and February 74, joined by Zouzou on a cover of a Calcium track: "This morning". But the album never saw the light of day, because unluckily, Julien Clerc no longer performs on stage, other than in recitals for his Japan and Canada tour, and the band loses the opportunity to play on stage.

 

In addition, France Gall, who in the height of her career, lives with Julien Clerc since August 1969, leaves him in 1974 for Michel Berger, another great star of French commercial music. Julien Clerc, annoyed, dismisses the musicians: Philippe Gall, Denis and Richard Lable (respectively brother and cousins of the singer). They are replaced by Gerard Bikialo (ex Magma) at the keyboard, Georges Kawczynski (nicknamed "Crapou") on the guitar and Christian Padovan on the bass (both ex Système Crapoutchik).

 

Out in the wild, the PLVG band members will then continue their career as studio musicians appearing on many recordings.

This French band with Richard Raux (ex-Magma) at his best in 1976 play an incredible and unique music, groovy, powerful, between funk and spiritual jazz, drawing on roots in African and Indian rhythms.
