"In 2011, FIMAV celebrated Peter Brötzmann's 70th anniversary with two concerts that shook our 27th Festival like an earthquake. Such creativity! Such stamina! Brötzmann is truly an impressive artist and a model for the younger generations of musicians. As Les Disques VICTO celebrates its 25th anniversary, we humbly release our very first double album. It is quite an honour and a privilege to be working with artists of such caliber!"-Victo Records
