Joseph Racaille was the R in ZNR, famous in progressive circles for their 1980 album "Traité De Mécanique Populaire" which of course was completely out of the sphere of anything popular and without a doubt remains very much so. Portella (the N in ZNR?) collaborated with him on the Flots Bleus album with side one composed by P and side two by R. The former plays clarinet, sometimes constructing ingenious chords in layers, the latter wrote the lyrics and plays the piano. The combined sound is oddly French with its accordion-like dimensions. In the EP 6 Petites Chansons on the other hand, we have one Norbert Aboudarham playing the accordion (as well as the Bouzouki, which, for those who don't know like myself, is a Greek mandolin-like stringed instrument).
