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
