Anthology of Music in Isère 1970 / 1980
This book tells the story of music in Isère between 1970 and 1980.
Those who were lucky enough to live through the 1970s have strong memories of it, the artists even more than the others.
Yesterday was the ’70s galaxy. For musicians, nothing will ever be the same again.
In 2002, the “12/14” news programme on FR3, presented by Alain Fauritte, devoted a beautiful report to the release of the book “Galaxie 70”.
A reception was also organised by the Grenoble Town Hall on this occasion. Nearly 400 people gathered for this event.

Extract from the preface to Galaxie 70 written by my friend Séverin Batfroi:
“Some rock historians consider that the historic Woodstock concert of August 15, 1969 marked the end of traditional rock and the beginning of a new era of psychedelically-influenced pop music. While it’s true to acknowledge the emergence of a new musical style, we shouldn’t think that good old rock’n’roll died out with the waning fires of the sixties.
The trail blazed by the forerunners was deep enough for the harvest to last for a long time to come. In fact, what marked the end of the Sixties was a dramatic event. On December 6, 1969, the Rolling Stones gave an open-air concert in San Francisco. During a scuffle near the stage, a spectator was stabbed by a member of the Hells Angels security team. This extremely serious act marked the end of the sixties and the beginning of the following decade, during which popular music continued to mutate…”
