Notes
An obscure piece, chronicling
pre-1968 the attempt
at community life of a
group of society disillusioned
youths, the
Etienne Périer film Des Garçons Et Des Filles
hasn't necessarily been
assigned to collective
memory. Its soundtrack,
however, is well worth
revisiting. Composed by
French pianist and jazz
drummer Errol Parker,
with the help of a young
Jean-Michel Jarre, the
EP's 3 tracks are scat
based, the area of jazz where the human voice
is treated as an instrument
in its own right.
Here, it manifests itself in
velvety 'la la la's' and heady
harmonies floating on a
silky jazz orchestration
(the magnetic "Solange"),
and openly flirts with the
impulsion of rhythm and
blues (the very Shifrinian
"Des Garçons Et Des Filles") Parker and his
group play the coolitude
card and their blue notes
give off an incredibly intoxicating
60s flavour.
Relaxation for blasé, tired
ears is guaranteed.
Produced from the original master tapes! Limited edition (numbered).
