Où Est Passée La Noce? (Edition Remixée)

Le blues d’la métropole,” written in 1972, looks back on a three-year period between 1967 and 1970, describing the defining years of Montréal and the blues that followed. Band members Michel Rivard, Pierre Huet, Pierre Bertrand, and Robert Léger paint a portrait of a society that is evolving socially, and of the difficulties that Montréal was experiencing at the time.

On its first day of release in 1975, Où est passée la noce? was certified Platinum in Canada with over 100,000 album sales. This new remixed edition is the follow-up to the debut remix project Beau Dommage and will be released as part of the band’s 50th anniversary celebration. The closing track and longest song on the album, “Un incident à Bois-des-Filion,” was a key reason Beau Dommage was classified as a progressive rock band at the time by fans and critics. The song, which holds an impressive runtime of over 20-minutes, remains one of the band’s most popular and was a key featured track in the recent Beau Dommage Symphonic Tour performed by Orchestre Métropolitain, which launched in Québec on August 30. The new edition of Où est passée la noce? was remixed by Ghyslain Luc Lavigne at the Studio Treatment Room in Montréal and was created with full approval and participation from the original band members.
