LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Named after a pun, “DeBoCo” (1997) is the work of three unique modern French Progressive rock musicians: Eric DELAUNAY, Jean-Pascal BOFFO & Gilles COPPIN. Actually, this was the latter’s last recording, because he unfortunately passed away in July 1996. His work on this project was completed by his once colleague in TIEMKO, guitarist Remy CHAUVIDAN. With strong individual talents, diverse styles and creativity without boundaries, each of the three artists present here composed and performed one track of this album. After that, the other two musicians were invited to create their own version of it. At the end of the day, the listener gets nine tracks and more than forty-five minutes of music. It’s absolutely not some purely didactic and dry experiment: the music is self-sufficient and the album can be heard in one go. Humour is not absent: the "Star Wars" nostalgic will be pleased to listen to "Le Retour De Dark Fader" ("The Return Of Dark Fader"), thanks to the tongue-in-cheek guitar performed by Jean-Pascal BOFFO. Some will notice straight away the strange spelling in "Allô Wind". Also, it can be said that "Araignee", composed by Gilles COPPIN and sung by Geraldine Le COCQ was revisited on the excellent album by HALLOWEEN “Le Festin” (2001). It’s logical, given that the two artists mentioned above are members of this band from Brittany ! An unique experience for a unique result !
