Sparrow with first tidbits

A great artist commits currently its 50th anniversary on stage - and resoundingly, as befits a star of her magnitude (!): Acclaimed performances at Paris 'Olympia', toured France and currently Germany, several TV appearances , tens of new releases on the market for recorded music and / or gold record testify eloquently the fact that you got lost after so many years not show the audience, but still in unswerving loyalty is to her. No, no "has been" as the Berufstotsager since like chanting ever, and also the label "ringarde" that try their adhere certain circles in their homeland too happy, falls empty-handed from her as if it were coated with Teflon, the indestructible Spatz called Mireille Mathieu.

From the flood of new releases to now move to the actual cause of this review, this double CD now projects certainly produce not only visually. In Digipak therefore coming to the equally beautiful as tasteful original layout of a (studio) -Langspielplatte resorting which now already saw glide se 45 Lenze offer two pieces of silver in addition to the eye a veritable feast for the ears: The first two series of concerts in Paris Olympia flow out the speakers and impressively demonstrate why the sweet little debutante for lasting world star, was still timbered diligently on its foundations in 1967 and 1969. Not the unmistakable voice alone, crystal clear, full of youthful vigor and blessed in their expression margin are responsible for the onset of this unprecedented career of highly talented, but in just such an extent the elite of the songwriters who took the washed with all waters of showbiz manager Johnny Stark on board , complemented by excellent sound engineers and arrangers - "old school" and woven together with love to detail created beautiful songs full of harmony, drama, great harmonies, perfection.
But above all resistance, the constant companion of true quality.

All of this can be found on these two fantastic remastered CD's. Here you can hear the sparrow with advanced to Evergreens songs like "Paris en colere" or the unbreakable "Derniere Valse", but also just live convincing rare Chanson pearls as "Ecoute ce cri", "Celui qui m'aimera", "Mon copain Pierrot "or the wonderfully melancholic" Il pleut toujours quand on est triste ", accompanied by a large orchestra with chorus, the master of his craft. In memories one wallows, touched pleasant, you can enjoy, but one also suffers when becoming aware how abysmally under value this great artist is commonly marketed in Germany - but only briefly, because there is the archive sleep snatched treasures such as these; but are against the mass-compatible evergreens Teutonic tongue and taste gems like this album saw the light of the world these days, and to radiate that understands like a sunrise in the merry month of May.

I have raised this musical treasure, hear him with the greatest Plaisir and hope that no matter how many will follow - high class like this, of which I have very many in extremely unfangreichen vinyl repertoire of Mathieu and white are the digitization more than worthy. Can truth knows no expiration date!
