Les Sinners broke up sometime in 1968 but reformed two years later, with only drummer Louis Parizeau left over from the original band. In this edition, the other bandmembers were Alain Jodoin (vocals and bass guitar), Jean-Guy “Arthur” Cossette (lead guitar) and Daniel Valois (rhythm guitar, flute and vocals).
When I looked up one of the related bands, La Révolution Française, they seemed more like Les Sinners than the post-1968 line-ups of the actual band did. When François Guy left Les Sinners in 1968, the band evidently broke up. Guy then put together a new band consisting entirely of former members of Les Sinners: Jean-Guy Cossette (guitar), Georges Marchand (bass guitar) and Louis Parizeau (drums). Their debut single did well enough to justify an album in 1968 on CANUSA Records, called C. Cool. Louis Parizeau also produced the album.
