Jacques Brel and George Brassens Offer in Guardian

[Pam]

This may well be of interest to some readers here – hope you spot it before it’s too late.

Classic album collections for connoisseurs

Loved by artists as diverse as Scott Walker, David Bowie, Dusty Springfield and Nina Simone, the 3 CD set of JACQUES BREL has his first four solo albums: Jacques Brel et ses Chansons (1955), Quand on n’a que l’Amour (1957), Au Printemps (1958) and La Valse a Mille Temps (1959).

Considered one of France’s most accomplished post-war poets and songwriters, on the GEORGES BRASSENS 3 CD set are six classic albums: La Mauvaise Reputation (1953), Le Vent (1954), Les Sabots d’Helene (1955), Je me Suis Fait tout Petit (1957), Oncle Archibald (1957) and Le Pornographe (1958).

Order both 3 CD sets with a total of ten original albums for just £12.95, including UK p&p.

My God! What a bargain….Are these figures correct?

Thanks for sharing that good news with all of us, Pam. Can anyone confirm that the offer is as good as it looks … and still available ?
Another interesting move for all the Jake&Georges fans ( while preparing Terry’s next Thackray-Brassens fest in Welling !) is a monthly visit to the following website: http://www.aupresdesonarbre.com .
Plenty of interesting Brassens clips or performances of fine songs by GB’s friends can be watched there. Some examples: Georges singing a charming Jean Nohain and Mireille song, accompanied by the latter on the piano as the May clip, his own TROMPETTES DE LA RENOMMEE as the April one … and Jake in DANS L’EAU DE LA CLAIRE FONTAINE as the April « guest of the month »!
