For the people interested in history of musette, there is a nice project looking for funding: book, CD, vinyls, illustrations by R Crumb.
Be careful when choosing how to get rewarded for support, there is a french and an English version of the book.
(I dont have any connections to this project, I just hope it gets funded so I can read the book :))

Really cool, thanks for sharing!
I am SO into getting this. Paps, thanks for sharing the link. Glad to see the quality of this project, both with Dominique (who I became familiar with thanks to his interview of Roger Chaput that he recently put up on youtube) as well as Robert Crumb (both long-time members of Les Primitifs du futur). I look forward to seeing what they put together and hope it will make it across the line.
Just a week left to support this project, in case any of you are interested. There is either a French version of the book or an English version. With 85% of the funding completed, I'm pretty sure the project will go ahead.
98 % now and 6 days to go, so it's really looking good! Ordered the vinyls and the book separately, I couldn't justify the extra 24€ for the usb stick. Thankl you @PapsPier for drawing attention to the project.
I didn't think about that until after I had already ordered. Indeed, that is probably the way to go.
Looks to be a wonderful project.
Seems you need to buy the vinyl LPs and CDs together. So book +music comes to 86 euros.
I guess the postage (included) will be higher due to the dimensions of the vinyl. Wish there was a cheaper option to get just the CDs and book.
