966.0. "Trust" by BUSSTP::DREES () Mon Aug 09 1993 19:33

    
    Anybody remember the French band Trust ?
    
    They became quite popular over here around '80-81 when they released
    the album Repression. It was originally released in French but to
    break in the UK the band got Jimmy Pursey to translate their often
    political lyrics to English. Bon Scott was originally going to do
    this but died before he could. They toured the UK in '80-'81 supporting
    Iron Maiden when Paul Dianno was still with Maiden. A great double
    bill.    
    
    Anyways as far as I remember they released 3 albums.
    
    1. Trust
    2. Repression (English/French versions)
    3. March Ou Creve
    
    I have the above albums but want them on cd, however, I'm finding it
    impossible to get any here in the UK. They should all be available in
    France but I can't seem to get them on import. Could any of our
    French/European noters help me out on this one.  
    
    They have also released a live cd which I don't have in any format.
    I have no any details on it but would like to get a copy.
    
    Any pointers would be appreciated.

    social was originally on and it had a song about a French villian who
    shot some policemen.As far as I can remember,it was ok...nothing
    outstanding~

966.2Ou sont les accents??RTOEU::RWINTERTue Aug 10 1993 09:108
    This year's JPC catalogue lists 4 Trust CD's: Antisocial-Fatalite;
    L'Elite; Ideal; Marche Ou Creve.
    
    All lyrics on these 4 are in French language.
    
    There are probably other Trust CD's obtainable in France.

Hi there.

TRUST was my favorite when I was a teenager. They were
pretty strong and lyrics are catchy (not for everyone :-)

Albums I have in chronological order.


L'elite (Contains prefabrique which is on the HeavyMetal
	 cartoon/movie. Also a cover of AC/DC ride on)
Antisocial (with Bon Scott on the inner sleeve. Contains
	    antisocial)
Antisocial (English version - same but in english)
Marche ou Creve (Do or Die)
A white a red cover without title I think containing
		Ideal, Le pouvoir et la gloire
Trust       (Black and white picture of the guys very 
	     old)

Then they splited.

They tried a come back with a CD called "En attendant"
(in the mean time) with 2 new songs a covers (Paint it 
Black)

They also toured a bit and produce a 2xCD live called
I think Paris Burning. 

Nothing since then. The guitarist is playing with Johnny
Halliday (which is good for Johnny but not for me :-)

Great band, difficult to I18Nized though :-)

Hope this helps,

Didier

    Nicko McBrain (of Iron Maiden) used to play drums in Trust before he
    jumped over to Iron Maiden.
