Repeated Listening Pleasure.......2006-06-28
This CD lacks the punch of some of Fabienne's Bristols releases but it has an elegance and quality that stands up to repeated listenings. The Joe Meek inspired studio sound is a pleasure to hear and the playing is tatefully done throughout. The songs are mostly sixties covers but there are also some Kaiser George originals which fit right into the mix.
The disc won't bowl you over but if you are like me you'll find yourself playing it again and again.
A great little retro pop album.......2005-08-18
It's a shame that Amazon misspelt Fabienne's surname (it should be Delsol, but it's currently there as Delso) making it harder for people to find this album. I bought this purely on the weight of the first track, "I'm Gonna Haunt You" - a fantastic, cute, nasty little ditty and quite reminiscent of Nancy Sinatra - it would be perfectly at home in a Quentin Tarantino movie. In fact, the whole album has that wonderful, neo-60s feel to it, although none of the other tracks quite match the sound and cool of the first one. Overall though, it's a great update on the classic yé-yé sound from 1960s France.
Most of the songs are in English, although 'Laisse Tomber Les Filles' is sung in her native French, and it sounds great even if you don't understand the lyrics. Other notable tracks on the album include "When my Mind is not Live", "Chills and Fever" and the title track, "No Time for Sorrows".
Fabienne Delsol has a great voice, which is accentuated by her delightful French accent. I'm looking forward to seeing what she comes up with next.
