Hello !

There are not yet all the references but over time they arrive gradually. Réferences of the sixties are very difficult to find and more, as I work, I do not have much time to find them either. Collectors will help me soon. I was informed that the RTBF could digitalized their archive with a twenty million €uro budget. They started few months ago (RTBF (national broadcasting organisation of the government of the French-speaking southern part of Belgium).

Before to be called The Klan (Belgian band), The Klan (Belgian band) was called "Les Ombres" :

 * Les Ombres on tour with Gene Vincent : Paris, Lyon, Lausanne (Switzerland), etc ... in 1964.


 * Shows of Les Ombres in Rock Festival as musicians of Vince Taylor in Paris in 1964, etc ...

In 1965, Olympia Records sells the contracts of "Les Ombres" to Palette Records (BMG Universal Music). The producer of Palette Records imposes a new name to the "Les Ombres": "The Klan".

The Klan (Belgian band) released three L.P. albums on a major label :
