About this product

De Rutebeuf a Aragon et Prevert en passant par Villon, Baudelaire, Verlaine et Desnos, cette anthologie confirme que le vers francais a un potentiel de musicalite. Et ils sont nombreux, et pas des moindres (Faure, Duparc, Debussy, Poulenc, Kosma, Ferre, Brassens, Gainsbourg...), les compositeurs a avoir pose des images musicales et tisse des melodies et harmonies sur les poemes qui avaient touche leur sensibilite. Ainsi, la poesie doublee de la magie musicale, comme l'ecrivait Aragon, met a la disposition d'un lecteur une lecture d'oreille. Philippe LESAGE. From Rutebeuf to Aragon and Prevert, and including Villon, Baudelaire, Verlaine and Desnos, this anthology confirms the musical potential of French verse. Many composers, not the least of them being Faure, Duparc, Debussy, Poulenc, Kosma, Ferre, Brassens or Gainsbourg, added their own images in music by weaving melody and harmony into the poems that spoke to their sensibilities. In so doing, as Aragon himself wrote, it was in this way that poetry, doubled with the magic of music, made it possible for us all to read by ear.

Cosmic Vibrations - Pathways & Passages   - VINYL LP

Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. New, extraordinary music by Cosmic Vibrations ft Dwight Trible. An interplanetary journey from this new, LA based 6-strong ensemble of experienced musicians that define spiritual jazz in the 21st century. This is a genre-defying amalgam of divine vocals by Dwight Trible, Sun Ra-esque jazz with world influences, laced with indigenous instruments, taking you into a cosmic journey of spiritual improvisation and beyond. Cosmic Vibrations' Pathways & Passages is an awakening, an opportunity to soar deeper into an altered awareness, an unfolding from a multi faceted cosmic realm into the cosmos. Simply superb.

Television Personalities - Beautiful Despair   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Television Personalities unreleased album. Recorded in 1990 by Jowe at his flat in Glading Terrace, Stoke Newington (shortly before it was demolished), over a number sessions on a portable 4-track cassette-tape machine. InchOver the course of a few weeks, we had amassed fifteen tracks, some of which ended up being re-recorded with very different arrangements on 'Closer to God'. The intention was to finish and these tracks at some point, and that time has finally arrivedInch Jowe HeadOf the previously unheard songs, InchI Like That in a GirlInch was based on a conversation Daniel Treacy had with Lawrence of the Birmingham band Felt, hence the peculiar accent that Dan uses towards the end! InchLove is a Four-Letter WordInch was a song the band would play regularly live; it eventually evolved into InchLove is Better Than WarInch. I Suppose You Think It's FunnyInch displays Jowe and Daniels double-falsetto skills.InchIf You Fly Too HighInch was based on an encounter with Evan Dando of The Lemonheads in Berlin during a memorable gig with them at the Ecstasy Madhouse in December 1989, when the Berlin Wall was being torn down. The band jammed with Evan on stage that night, playing some tunes by Jonathan Richman and Johnny Thunders. The song also mentions Alan McGee, who was a great fan of the TVPS. Alan openly admits that he emulated Dan's style of music, and influenced his decision to run a mod-psychedelic club, The Living Room, and to start his tag, Creation.1 Hard Luck Story Number 392 Razor Blades and Lemonade3 How Does It Feel To Be Loved 4 Love is a Four-Letter Word5 Beautiful Despair6 If You Fly Too High7 Have a Nice Day8 I Get Frightened Too9 Goodnight Mister Spaceman 10 Honey For The Bears11 I Don't Want to Live This Life12 I Like That In a Girl13 My Very First Nervous Breakdown14 I Suppose You Think It's Funny 15 This Heart's Not Made of Stone
