Maneige - Les Porches (1975)


Elegant, 99% instrumental Québecois symphonic prog. Sprawling, thoughtfully composed, multi-suite epics performed by what amounts to a small orchestra, encompassing violin, piano, flute, clarinet, xylophone, saxophone, guitar, standup bass, and more. Sounds like a 70s Italian horror movie soundtrack.

Track listing:
1. Les Porches de Notre-Dame
2. La Grosse Torche
3. Les Adventures de Saxinette et Clarophone
4. Chromo

  1. I don't suppose you could re-upload this?

  2. Any chance of you uploading Salle Gaveau's "Strange device" album? Great music but, unfortunately, it's nowhere around the internet. It's great music and since you don't have any tango here either. Please!

    3. Just don't have time. Nothing to do with how I feel about the album, it's great!
