Legendary underground cartoonist Robert Crumb and guitarist Dominique Cravic founded Les Primitifs du Futur in 1986 craving real Parisian musette instead of poor imitations heard in variety shows. It sounds like they've stepped right out the '30s, brilliantly blending world-musette and Django-style guitar into old-fashion originals. "Musette" was a popular dance music developed in France which exploded in Paris in the 1930s and '40s. Mixing popular folk dancing from Auvergne with swing, gypsy inflections, and polka, Les Primitifs are sure to pack the dance floor.
