Departure from Auvers-sur-Oise (Val-d'Oise)
In 1971, the Grateful Dead were unable to perform their concert due to rain in Auvers-sur-Oise. Michel Magne, the brilliant and whimsical musician, invited them to Hérouville Castle. So get your playlist ready, featuring film scores or experimental music by Michel Magne, composer of, amongst others, *Les Tontons Flingueurs*, *Fantomas*, *Tout le monde il est beau* and *Tout le monde il est gentil*. You’ll also find tracks recorded at this venue, described by David Bowie to Iggy Pop as the world’s greatest recording studio at the time. It saw the creation of three of Elton John’s best albums, two Bowie albums, the Bee Gees’ massive hit Saturday Night Fever, as well as albums by Johnny Hallyday, Jacques Higelin and many others – all on their way to the Château d’Hérouville. Let’s rock.
