Recordist's notes
On the wharf of the Sambre river, there's no easy access for policemen. They can't come with the car, so junkies come here. I took risks to make this recording, as I went really inside the groups. They drink very too much beer, smoke ganja, listen intellectual quarter-world music, shit and piss on the ground, fight... and ... sing ? sing ? OK sorry, rather bawl they put their bollocks in my tears (truthful). Oh my god...
