It’s natural for Francis Lai to take a stab at ‘Folies Bergeres’ considering her long-professed love for Led Zeppelin. While no new Francis Lai album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1981 tour in Asia. There is no doubt that Francis Lai has talent. Les Uns Et Les Autres (With Mi is not something you should pass up.
Serenade For Sarah has a gorgeous instrumental sound, which lets Francis Lai’s strong vocals come to the fore. I hope to keep hearing Francis Lai works for a long time to come. The first time I listened to Les Allemands A Paris I was struck by its cool sound. Best song on the album, love it. Un Parfum De Din Du Monde is an upbeat song with a constant snare hit. This track, in particular, has the kind of undeniably catchy flavor. Paris Des Autres is sonically very melodic with nice haunting verses. Dad Adn Co. defines beauty, yet is as unforgiving as an astringent stone. Ballet Apocalypse is simple, dignified and effective, Francis Lai refusing to over-emote, and demonstrating that less is more. It took me a little time but I ended up loving Un Parfum De Fin Du Monde. Album opener Les Un Et Les Autres is a bright, upbeat ditty. Body And Soul Incorporated is a romantic if not formulaic ditty. Ballad Pour Ma Memoire marked the continuation of Francis Lai in style evolution. This track is a killer, it just grabs you instantly.
