Assedic – Les Escrocs (1994)
The music band ‘Les Escrocs‘ is composed of Eric Toulis, Hervé Coury and Didier Morel, who are all born in 1960.
Complete fans of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, they were never able to make a choice between these two. This is why they pick their inspiration in totally different music: soul, jazz, reggae, salsa, brazilian music and latin in general, texts of Serge Gainsbourg, Bobby Lapointe and also Charles Trénet.
This song: ‘Assedic’, was a real success during the 90’s. At this time, they even play in first part of Alain Souchon (french singer), at Paris’ Zénith.
“ASSEDIC…
Je t’écrirai de temps en temps,
Toi tu m’enverras mon virement
Directement,
Tout là-bas, dans mon île
ASSEDIC
Enfin ma place au soleil,
A moi les ciels vermeils
Et les beaux voyages…
M’en priver ce serait dommage.
ASSEDIC
Tu seras ma petite maman,
La Maman de tous les gens
Qui n’ont pas d’argent.”

Announcement – We Need You!
As stated in the title, S-pleen needs you! You may have seen that during the last couple of months, the S-pleen has not been regularly updated. For various reasons, the rythm of 1 post per week, which was my rule in the beginning, was not respected.
Due to other personnal projects, i simply don’t have enough time to make regular updates and post new articles. This is why i’m looking for new publishers (ideally 2 or 3) who would like to bring their spleen-esque culture to this blog and share it with us.
In the case of 3 publishers joining us, the posting rythm would only be of 1 post per month per publisher. Which seems quite do-able for almost anyone, and would allow S-pleen to keep existing.
If I don’t find any publishers interested in participating in the S-pleen project, this website may be closed in the middle of March 2009.
Some basic knowledge about Wordpress and blogging is not necessary but would be appreciated to make the updating process easier.
If you are interested to take part in S-pleen project, please contact me by email: music.spleen['@']gmail{’.'}com. (don’t forget to replace ['@'] by @ and {’.'} by .)
