Despite the French name, these guys are Japanese and famously never released an official album in the 40-odd years they were playing, garnering their legendary reputation instead off the back of a series of bootleg live recordings of variable quality. Oh, and the original bass player hijacked a plane and defected to North Korea.

The amplifier buzz in this track is kind of awful but it also kind of makes it and the final solo is one of my favourite pieces of music to listen to at ear-splitting volume.
