Aksak Maboul

Un Peu L'Ame Des Bandits

Crammed Discs

The second of Marc Hollander’s LPs under the alias Aksak Maboul, from 1979, with Fred Frith and Chris Cutler amongst the guests. ‘Sets the imagination reeling through a sequence of phantasmagorical scenarios, transporting listeners to a cafe in Montmartre, a bazaar in Istanbul, a tango bar, a punk rock venue or maybe an exotic location in a Tintin cartoon. Eclectic, inventive, inquisitively playful and surreal… it remains simply indispensable’ (The Wire).
