Mitzpah

Mitzpah is a short-lived duo formed in Paris in 1981 by two actors of the early European punk scene: Hervé Zénouda (Stinky Toys, Elli & Jacno, Mathématiques Modernes) and Gregory Davidow (performer-singer, expelled from Hungary in 1978 and founder of the first Eastern bloc punk band, Spions). That summer they recorded demos with the valuable help of the Modern Guy's, including Yann Le Ker. Forty years later, never having forgotten this aborted project, Zénouda decided to re-record all the tracks by re-contacting the original musicians, with the idea of keeping the spirit of the time.
