THERESE RACKET - CD TRACES DE L'ORTIE

Popis - TRACES DE L'ORTIE:
Therese Racket appeared in 1983 in Toulouse, lead by female singer Badou Ortega, creating poetic and weid atmospheres, with a sensual and deep voice (once compared to Siouxsie), contrasting with guitars and cold machines. Spotted during the Printemps de Bourges 1984, then 1985, the band is welcomed by professionals. Therese Racket then record a first track "Eurokenne" in the Maison de la Culture in Bourges, then a first single "Rebelle" in 1986, followed by an album "Survie" in 1987 produced by Radio France, off which their second single "Mau Mau" is taken. They did a lot of gigs, opening for bands as Xymox, Legendary Pink Dots, Sugarcubes, as well in France as in Spain and Austria. The band quit in 1990 because of the disease of one of the composing members, on the way to record a second album produced by Strangler's Jean-Jacques Burnel.
