All in all one of the most satisfying archive/ restoration works I had the chance to work on.

Hello Udi!

Thank you so much for putting these up and letting us know! I have just been listening &: wow!  [The drums are just, just...omg!!!] I listened to the orig last week and this really does outshine that immensely - and that's only on my comp. speakers! Thank you thank you thank you!
:) :) :)
[I have to order the new CD next week! Can't wait]

Alain Le Bon :

One of the bonus tracks is from ICARE ("le gros d�lire"), while the 3 others have been recorded over the period 1984-1985 (but they don't sound from that period - imo). For complete info the version of "le gros delire" is NOT the one destined to be featured on ICARE but an alternate take I much prefered - producer's final cut here

What I've heard of the Xing Sa so far on SoundCloud sounds good indeed.  I agree wtih Claire, these three are a very nice trio.

Ohh, thanks for sharing Udi!

I'm just listening to this band from Isr right now which a friend turned me onto - it's quite wondrous indeed! Do you know Thin Lips (Alkalay-Gut / Yarkoni / Sommer)?
