In his adolescent days he featured in two 60s bands: Les Don Dièses and Les Alizées, before working as a session musician and composer with several "cabaret" acts. After he took part in some professional music training and formed his own band in 1970 which featured two former members of Trust. Durring his 1970s career Alain gradually moved from singer and band leader to multi-instrumental soloist, from psychedelic rock to multi-cultural instrumental music somewhat comparable to the German band Popol Vuh.
