Henri Salvador is without doubt the most wonderful crooner-entertainer that France ever produced. These “live” recordings from between 1956 and 1960, made in the legendary Parisian venues Bobino and the Alhambra, belong to that great artistic era defined by Salvador’s collaboration with producer Boris Vian, and this selection alternates titles from jazz, rock ‘n’ roll and calypso. Situated somewhere between a “live” concert and a document incarnate, this album marvellously highlights Henri Salvador’s rapport with his audience: boundless generosity mixed with tenderness and devastating humour. The liner notes bear the signature of Daniel Nevers, author of the complete works of Henri Salvador published by Fremeaux & Associes. Patrick FReMEAUX The Live in Paris collection by Michel Brillie allows listeners to hear previously-unreleased recordings (made at concerts and private- or radio-sessions) by the great 20th stars in jazz, rock & roll and song. These “live” takes, and the artists’ rapport with their audiences, gives these performances an additional soul and sensibility in counterpoint to the rigorous demands of studio recordings. Particular care was taken when restoring the sound of these tapes in order to meet CD standards while preserving the original colours of the period. Patrick FReMEAUX & Gilles PeTARD

«A master-piece still lives on a century later. People often tell me than several of my songs will still be going in a hundred years time. I hope so but can hardly believe it. And among my songs which will supposedly live on, La Mer is always referred to. I think if I had to choose one, it would be L’Ame des Poetes! »

Double Cream is a treat brought to you by Daniel John Martin. Having pushed the Gypsy swing style to its limits in his earlier published work ‘Urban Gypsy’ the artist now brings together all his experience and explores other styles in music. The precision of the English bow has been known for centuries yet DJM is arguably the first to introduce us to such eclecticism: The artist takes inspiration from 1960’s pop music, the jazz poetry of A Baraka, the P-Funk of Funkadelic and the bluesy chants of a Blue Note standard. DJM has an undeniable talent for writing and composing, combined with a voluptuous lightness brought by his renowned violin and a surprising sweet and sour, “typically British” voice. Augustin BONDOUX
