Legion 88
Настоящее имя: Legion 88
Об исполнителе:
French RAC band from Essonne, Île-de-France. Long inactive. Formed in 1984 by Dominique on guitar and his brother under the name Combat 88. Alain joined them as a singer and the band’s name became Légion 88. There were several line up changes until Fred settles on bass. The band practices with some Totenkopf members at the house of Geno's mother and sometimes at Dominique’s. Everytime at least 30 skinheads would attend the sessions and it often ended up in a small gig. Vico (drummer) and Jean Jean (guitarist) of Totenkopf help them out when the other musicians cannot attend. When Geno dies in 1986, they have joined the band. The line up (Dominique, Jean Jean, Vico, Fread, Alain) released their first EP «Terroristes» and played gigs in Belgium, England (St Georges’s Day with Skrewdriver in 1987) and Brest. Later in 1987, Dominique left the band (he moved outside Paris), followed by Jean Jean soon after. P'tit Bruno, their neighbour of the 19 bis in Dravel (where Alain and the others squatted at the time) and guitarist in Nouvelle Croisade joined them. In 1988 he composed a number of songs of the «Thulé» album and «Légion blanche» EP. The band wanted to play a farewell gig before splitting up in May 1988 in Brest, but the police stopped the concert. 1985 line-up: Alain: voice (F- Tribal Zone) Dominique: guitar Fred: bass (Totenkopf / F- Tribal Zone) Marc: drums 1986 - 1987 line-up Alain: voice Dominique: guitar Jean: guitar (Totenkopf) Fred: bass Vico: drums (Totenkopf) 1988 line-up Alain: voice Bruno: guitar (Nouvelle Croisade) Fred: bass Vico: drums
