Reviewed by canaxis, Oct 2004ce

I cannot believe St Julian has not yet done a review or career retrospective of this wonderful group!
And I’m not gonna try either…just gently point you in the right direction.
I have a good starting point whereas..if you are already here on this website, then I KNOW you will enjoy this band.

simple facts first..the band 

Dagmar Krausse..vocals/other things
Anthony Moore..keyboards/other things
Peter Blegvad..Guitars/vocals/other things

albums.

Sort of..
casablanca moon (not in UK)
slapp happy
acnalbasac noom
desperate straights
ca va
live in Japan
others available..

I could not review this band..you HAVE to hear them
if you like either Stereolab/salad/serge g/french pop/german pop/naive pop or maybe just POP..this is the band for you.

I can only say they were the GREATEST pop band NEVER to have a hit!

listen to the cd’s and then compare against what else was contaminating the charts at that point..Lynsey du paul?? yessiree…SH got that down..
jane birkin /franciose hardy?? yepp..but with bags more cool!!

JHCope!!, this review is pants..get UR finger out UR ear and review this band ASAP!..(there’s even a Faust connection for ya!)
