I''m listening to the new 50 cent cd in an internet cafe!
live album - grand funk thank you limewire !
A second-hand album that I picked up just cause of the cover, for 3 euros: "Jean Sablon chante pour vous ses grands succes". Never heard of the guy, his grand successes are probably dusty on your greataunts attic, but there he is casually smoking his cigarette on the cover anyway, a stripe of a moustache: the smoke circles frivolously. So does the music. If the Singing Detective had been French, this would have been playing. He even does a jazz orchestra version of Sur le pont d'Avignon.
You listening Jean Sablon, Nimh, how weird!
But this guy had such a success in France forty years ago!
"I'm Beginning to See the Light"
Duke Ellington
Oh yeah Francis, he really was famous? <excited>
Fourty years ago, thats ... in the sixties. All I know is other singers, Piaf, and Brassens and Montand.
I had this some other time too - I once bought a Karady Katalin album, in the far corner of a picturesque Maastricht record shop (there where the shower had been when the shop was still a regular house) - and much later, some Hungarian girl elatedly said: thats the music my grandma always listened to!
Nimh, here everybody older then 50 knows Jean Sablon. I even have 2 or three songs from him somewhere.
See here
25 song lyrics from Jean Sablon.
A (short) track by
the French Bill Crosby.
(I must have a couple of his songs as well .... and somewhere a photo of his tomb.)
cool! thanks folks!
you know what i also bought, same day? paul robeson album, its got "nobody knows the troubles i've seen", have been looking for that for ages. and what made me smile (but i didnt get to post about it) was that, when i checked the record, some flutter of pages fell out. like, school notebook pages - typed full, by hand, on the old-fashioned typewriter, with all the lyrics to the songs! song titles in red, lyrics in black ... and sometimes he hadnt quite gotten it right (sitting at his desk typing along to the record player?), so there's different kinds of additions and corrections added with pen, in a classic, formal curly handwriting ... that moved me ...
