Piaf, Edith

Live In Paris 1958-1962

Edith Piaf is the most fascinating French singer. Her songs have circled the globe and today they belong to our worldheritage. This set contains the most beautiful versions of her greatest hits, recorded live in Paris between 1958 and 1962. The set contains historic period-documents (audio conversations with Jean Cocteau, Joseph Kessel or Pierre Brasseur, or in duo with Jacques PrEvert, etc.). A booklet written by Martin PEnet, a great Piaf specialist and French song-historian, accompanies the contents. 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
