His music is unique: a blend of Creole blues, maloya and international folk, it discretely takes hold of you and never leaves you. Péters travelled through the 70s and the 80s like a shooting star, alone or with a band, with his Sahelian lute, his reel-to-reel tape recorder, firewater and ill-fated genius. He died in 1995, aged 43. Poet, musician, singer and melody-maker, he left behind a handful of sublime songs which are gathered here for the first time on vinyl. Full of dazzling beauty and sparkling darkness, his songs express the yearning homesickness of the Creoles’ highly sensitive wandering soul, at the crossroads of African, Indian and European cultures. Réunion (literally “the gathering”) is aptly named and over the course of his uncertain career, Péters continuously embodied the soul of this culturally hybrid land with a fusion of African instruments, Indian mysticism and European poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLISTING\u003cbr\u003eA1 Caloubadia\u003cbr\u003eA2 MangéPouLeCoeur\u003cbr\u003eA3 LaRoséeSiFeuillesSonges \u003cbr\u003eA4 LaPêcheBernica\u003cbr\u003eA5 PlimeLaMisère\u003cbr\u003eB1 Ti Pas, Ti Pas N'arriver \u003cbr\u003eB2 Complainte De Satan 2\u003cbr\u003eB3 Ti Cabart\u003cbr\u003eB4 Wayo Manman !\u003cbr\u003eB5 Rest' La Maloya\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Les Disques Bongo Joe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42361258901660,"sku":"BJR7LP","price":21.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/unnamed_1_8f4eb2cf-7c52-411d-bf68-79f202ee4f6f.jpg?v=1677057133","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/alain-peters-rest-la-maloya","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
