Import reissue of keyboardist Cyrille Verdeaux's second album as Clearlight Symphony,
originally released in 1975. Forever Blowing Bubbles release in the UK gave
Clearlight the international recognition they deserved. Featuring Joel Dugrenot
(ex-Zao), violinist David Cross (King Crimson) & guitarist/flutist Jean Claude
d'Agostini (Magic Circus). Featuring the bonus tracks 'Sweet Absinthe', 'Without
Words' (Mellotron Remix) & 'Flute Aquatique'. 2001.
Доп. информация: Clearlight was mainly a project of keyboardist Cyrille Verdeaux. Forever Blowing
Bubbles ditched the Gong members of Clearlight Symphony and now included a bunch of
new musicians, who I'm not familiar with. But there are guests, including none other
than King Crimson violinist David Cross, plus the Northettes (Amanda Parsons, Ann
Rosenthal), some female vocalists, Bruno Verdeaux (presumably Cyrille's brother),
Christian Boule, Gilbert Artman (Lard Free, he also appeared on Clearlight Symphony,
as well as Boule) etc.
Just imagine what would happed if Steve Hillage's albums had a more symphonic bent
and included piano and Mellotron. The first cut, "Chanson" is a vocal track, but the
next piece, "Without Words" features some nice use of electric piano and ARP 2600
synth, before going in to a Hillage-like jam. At the end it ends with some Hammond
organ that makes me think of Pink Floyd. "Way" starts off with Mellotron and wordless
voices, before the piano and David Cross' violin kicks in. I really love how those
synths kick in near the end and everything starts speeding up (thanks to speeding up
the tape).
The second half of the album don't quite live up to the greatness of the first half,
still not bad. "Et Pendant Ce Temps La" seems to be a Clearlight theme that gets
recycles, because I heard that theme used on the Delired Cameleon Family album (which
is basically another Clearlight album, which is a no-brainer, if you enjoy
Clearlight, you'll enjoy Delired Cameleon Family, simple as that). "Narcisse et
Goldmund" finds the band exploring a chanson style of music, with female vocals (in
French), but what serparates this song from real French chanson is the presence of
Mellotron. The last cut, "Jungle Bubbles" is basically synth bubble sounds.
