PATAPHONIE is a unique instrumental trio of the new musics scene in France. The only album recorded by Andre VIAUD (Guitars), Gilles ROUSSEAU (Drums & percussions) and Pierre DEMOURON (Bass) dates back to 1978. "Le Matin Blanc" proves to be a mature and powerful album, as much a Rock In Opposition production, domain of Chris CUTLER (HENRY COW) as a Progressive rock issue (KING CRIMSON). The Gazul reissue includes various bonus tracks recorded live on the 4th May 1980, during one of the band's last shows. A historical document !
