The French ensemble ETRON FOU LELOUBLAN has been described as one of Europe's most important group of artists exploring the RIO and avant-garde segment of progressive rock, and in the 12 years they've existed they released a total of 6 albums, all productions that are generally regarded as influential and well-worth seeking out. "A Prague" is an archival live recording, given its first official release by Musea Records' Gazul imprint in the fall of 2010.

Existing fans of Etron Fou Leloublan should find this production to be one well worth acquiring. The live audio capture is as good as one can expect under the circumstances they were made; the performance is on a par with what you would expect from this band, and I do believe that this is the only official live recording released by this version of the band to boot. RIO fans with a general taste for live performances might also want to take note of this CD, in particular if they have yet to explore the discography of this fine French ensemble.
