I really did not know this about Les Dauphins, one of the best <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-rock-bands-of-all-time" rel="nofollow">rocks bands</a>. Even I was thinking to try it. Now I will remember the things that you have cleared to me.

Unfortunately, the very obscure (though by the look of this clip rather good) 1964 Italian thriller "Super Rapino a Milano" had nothing whatsoever to do with the band; this is just some guy on YouTube combining an old foreign film-clip with an interesting track. So that is not Les Dauphins playing masked machine-gun-wielding helicopter bandits with detachable heads, though undoubtedly it should have been.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740384.post-85501978037464264622014-06-19T12:53:34.845-07:002014-06-19T12:53:34.845-07:00Not a scoop...

Lot of these musicians were French "pieds noirs" (and came from North african Jewish minorities). As you said Oran (and Algiers) was a port...like Liverpool...<br />Actually, Algeria isnot only a extremism musilm land...you could check this hardcore/punk band called Demokratia...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740384.post-70042574408615468282014-06-19T11:08:59.578-07:002014-06-19T11:08:59.578-07:00Those aren't working for me, either.

I haven't used Divshare for anything sane that I can remember, so I can't compare. I had Divshare notify me that another Maniacal file was absent, and in these 4 cases it claims to be sending the files, but they never come. It might be a flaw in Divshare's interface.<br /><br />http://www.divshare.com/download/23392807-b58<br /><br />www.divshare.com/download/23513747-cb7<br /><br />www.divshare.com/download/23472353-23d<br /><br />http://www.divshare.com/download/23627738-fcdMike O'Donnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11615172030119304802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8740384.post-91072301319827074162014-06-19T10:13:42.464-07:002014-06-19T10:13:42.464-07:00A video!

I looked up "Les Dauphins band" and did <b>much</b> better: the first hit was a weird post on a weirder blog called "Music for Maniacs."<br /><br />But, I also found a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6fOJRm7uZ8" rel="nofollow">video</a>! Not clear what's up here, but I <i>think</i> that the criminals may be played by the band members.<br /><br />You can also get a 4-song EP for a mere schmear 40 euros <a href="http://www.frenchattack.com/shop/new-arrivals/1438-noah-howard-red-star-mercury.html" rel="nofollow">right here</a>. Maybe just grab the sleeve image.<br /><br /><i>Non sequitur:</i> Two days ago, I grabbed a wonderful file from Divshare, and then lost my ability to download from them. I go through the motions, get the message that, "Your download will start momentarily. If it doesn't, click here to try again," but no download. I tried signing up for the free level of service, and I could bypass the 15-second countdown, but still no files. Tried two different browsers. If anybody has tips about dodging Divshare glitches, I'd love to hear 'em.Mike O'Donnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11615172030119304802noreply@blogger.com
