The day after the last take of Défense de by Birgé Gorgé
before they meet Shiroc.
"When we reissued LP Défense de on CD, Meidad Zaharia asked me to find anything by the same band, sounds or pictures. I thought I got it all when we published June Sessions with Shiroc, 6 hours and a half which are on the DVD together with my film La nuit du Phoque. Since then, I found color slides taken by Thierry Dehesdin and a few pieces I had forgotten, specially the ones before we met Shiroc." JJB
