Hard Times Good Times by The VHBL cover Zoo

Zoo est un groupe de rock progressif français, originaire de Paris. Il est anciennement localisé à Nantes, en Loire-Atlantique et actif entre 1969 et 1972. Il se reforme en 2010 sous le nom de Zoo Tribute Original.
Zoo est formé en 19681, et est issu du groupe les New Strangers, Joël Daydé (chant), Daniel Carlet (saxophone ténor, violon) et Michel Hervé (basse) se rapprochant des musiciens de studio Pierre Fanen (guitare), Michel Ripoche (saxophone ténor, violon, trombone), Tony Canal (trompette), André Hervé (claviers), Christian Devaux (batterie) et Michel Bonnecarrère (guitare et composition)
En 1970, des divergences musicales, relationnelles et financières conduisent Joël Daydé et Pierre « Pierrot » Fanen à quitter le groupe. Privé de chanteur, Zoo va par l’intermédiaire d’une petite annonce dans le Melody Maker, recruter le chanteur anglais Ian Bellamy1. Le deuxième album est enregistré du 12 juin au 9 septembre 19701. Dans ce nouvel opus, les violons prennent le pouvoir, reléguant les cuivres sur certains titres malgré la réussite, en particulier du saxophone, sur Endless Words. L’album est programmé et sert d’indicatif pour des radios américaines telles que WOR-FM et WABC-FM, deux des plus grosses stations new-yorkaises.
En 1972, sort l’album le plus vendu du groupe. Il bénéficie de parutions outre-Manche (RCA) et outre-Atlantique (Warner Bros.). Hormis les titres déjà cités et la seconde version d’Hard Times, Good Times, l’album recèle quelques réussites, tendant sur le rhythm and blues. Après avoir participé au MIDEM en début d’année, Zoo retrouve la scène pour une tournée en Angleterre durant le mois de mai, puis à Strasbourg au festival de Wacken.
La sortie du dernier 45 tours Life Is Living/Stiggy Poo ne change rien à l’inéluctable séparation en octobre 1972

Zoo is a French progressive rock band from Paris. It was formerly located in Nantes, Loire-Atlantique and active between 1969 and 1972. It reformed in 2010 under the name Zoo Tribute Original. Zoo was formed in 19681, and came from the group New Strangers, Joël Daydé (vocals), Daniel Carlet (tenor saxophone, violin) and Michel Hervé (bass) getting closer to the studio musicians Pierre Fanen (guitar), Michel Ripoche (tenor saxophone, violin, trombone), Tony Canal (trumpet), André Hervé (keyboards), Christian Devaux (drums) and Michel Bonnecarrère (guitar and composition) In 1970, musical, relational and financial differences led Joël Daydé and Pierre "Pierrot" Fanen to leave the group. Deprived of a singer, Zoo went through a small ad in Melody Maker to recruit the English singer Ian Bellamy1. The second album was recorded from June 12 to September 9, 19701. In this new opus, the violins took over, relegating the brass on certain tracks despite the success, in particular of the saxophone, on Endless Words. The album was programmed and served as an indicator for American radio stations such as WOR-FM and WABC-FM, two of the biggest New York stations. In 1972, the group's best-selling album was released. It benefited from releases across the Channel (RCA) and across the Atlantic (Warner Bros.). Apart from the tracks already mentioned and the second version of Hard Times, Good Times, the album contained a few successes, tending towards rhythm and blues. After participating in MIDEM at the beginning of the year, Zoo returned to the stage for a tour in England during the month of May, then in Strasbourg at the Wacken festival. The release of the last 45 rpm Life Is Living/Stiggy Poo did not change anything to the inevitable separation in October 1972
