Les Calamités | C'est Complet
Reupped by special request here.
[Originally posted on December 20, 2012.] God knows what led me to pluck this gem from the dollar bin of the record store around the corner from my friend Rodney's house here in Portland a couple of days ago, but I'm beyond super-Xtreme giddy that I did. Les Calamités formed in Beaune in Côte-d'Or in the early 1980s and released their first and only record, À bride abattue, in 1984. They broke up the next year and I've no idea what may have happened to them after that. This CD collects the songs on the first album along with all other singles/B sides the group recorded in their short-but-life-affirming career.
Today is my last day in Portland; at around noon my mom & stepfather are driving up to take me and Rodney out to Pok Pok and then whisk me south to Corvalis for the holidays. I expect to have a bit of downtime while there; if so, you can be sure I'll be uploading a number of other Portland scores.

I was having a lousy day, but this cheered me right up! Thank you.
This looks great, but I can't get it to download past 9.5 MB. Thanks.
Hi Tony,
I was just able to download it from a different computer than the one I uploaded it on, so I'm guessing it's an issue on your end. Maybe try accessing via a different browser? Or reboot your computer and try again?
