After having released a demo tape in 1993, the Montréal, Québec-based brass band L’Orkestre Des Pas Perdus released their first album in 1996: “T’Auras Pas Ta Pomme”. Several other albums followed: “Maison Douce Maison” (1998), “Mondo Cuivro” (2003), “Projet 9” (2007), and “L’Âge Du Cuivre” (2011). All on CD.

In 2021, “Tarapatapomm2” got released as a download / streaming released through digital music services such as Bandcamp and iTunes.
Claude St-Jean added:
“Tarapatapomm2” contained some exclusive music which was recorded before our first CD.

The album included L’Orkestre’s arrangement of FZ’s ‘Chunga’s Revenge’.

Extraordinary !!
That's the word that came to mind when I first heard this album a couple of days ago.

An excellent discovery, even if I say so myself.

It just shows that bands that have a Frank Zappa tune on their setlist, or that have recorded a FZ piece on one of their albums are worth investigating.
This is superb !!

Check out this album, and listen to the fine arrangement of 'Chunga's Revenge'.
