dalle note di copertina:
Il y a eu des dandys avec des dents en or, bagues et colliers, flambant
leur réussite en grosses bagnoles de frime et en femmes capricieuses.
Et il y eu des types aux vies pourries jusqu’aux pépins, ayant pris
tellement de tuiles sur le derrière de la tête que çà les faisait plutôt
sourire.
Le blues est une affaire d’hommes et de femmes, un tas d’affaires, même.
Et ces affaires, Louis Loos en traite quelques-unes sur les planches de
son album aussi long et aussi sombre qu’un iver de la Côte est.

There were dandies with gold teeth, gold rings and gold medallions,
disflaying their success with big show—off cars and moody women. And,
there were other guys, with tota ly rotten lives, who had been beaten
down so many times they were able to laugh about it. The blues is an
affair of men and women, a great many affairs even. Louis Joos takes a
look at some of these affairs through the pictures in is album which is
as long and as sombre as winter on the East Coast.
