Un dandy en exil - Algérie - France-1969-1983 - édition limitée - Vinyle

Description

Mazouni is one of the great voices of Algerian exile music. This compilation traces his French years (1969-1983), where he uniquely blends Algerian popular song, yé-yé, rock, and traditional music. A tender and biting chronicler of immigrant life, he is the author of classics like 20 ans en France, Clichy, Écoute-moi Camarade, and Mini-Jupe. An essential work, at the crossroads of cultures, it tells the story of immigration through music with a modernity that remains intact. Rachid Taha, by covering Camarade, Mouss and Hakim from Zebda, through Adieu la France, Bonjour l’Algérie, as well as the Orchestre National de Barbès, which chose Tu n’es plus comme avant (Les roses), have also contributed to Mazouni's recognition by a new generation.
