« La French Connection » is back again and continues to explore an incredible soulful catalog of tunes coming from France.
Except from few productions recorded abroad with American musicians versus French main artist, Our team has previously and essentially conceived the bulk of their podcast series around Parisian recorded works. But It seems Our home city was not the only fertile ground to study.
This time we also put the spotlight on the Lyon and Grenoble Connection. This add a more« Club tropicanesque » feeling than before. We already Started to use some sunny tracks in the past like the brillant and funny, « Lait de Coco » from 1987.
To name a few, Singer and musician Pierre Maizeroi initially from Martinique comes indeed from Lyon and worked with local musicians from Grenoble to record « Juste un moment » He also released records in the calypso vein and salsa fields prior to hit the stages with funky music. We don’t forget singers like Serge Ponsar who had his moment of glory in the mid eighties with a look very close to the early Black White and Co’s look.
In this 4th volume you will find serge’s input on Bertrand Richard’s excellent album from 1982.
As we also love the Canadian connection, this is the very first time we selected a disco track from the incredible and legendary, Pierre Perpall for one of our Podcasts. Of course, some awesome French well known icons will return as Laurent Voulzy, Michel Jonasz and the delightful Françoise Hardy! Enjoy ??
