The 2nd and best of this legendary band's two albums, comprised of the duo of Hector Zazou & Joseph Racaille + guests, who used keboards, clarinets, guitars, violin and much more. This record was utterly out of step with the prevailing trends in 1977, but in retropect, this turned out to be an early classic of 70's neo-classical progressive rock but in a completely different way than Art Zoyd/Univers Zero. Where AZ/UZ used Bartok/Stravinsky, ZNR used Satie/Debussy as their classical role models. This made for a beautiful and quite distinctly French and 'odd' album. A gem and a classic and out of print and unavailable for years, but newly reissued only for the Japanese market, which is where we had to import these from. [Buda/Belle Antique]
