ALBUM REVIEW - Paris Combo - living-room

I received Paris Combo’s living-room as a gift from my good friend Aaron. It is totally cool French lounge music, with some surprisingly ripping guitar. It is definitely mot a style that I usually listen to, but the musicianship is extremely high and the songs are infectious. Belle Du Berry’s voice is amazing, featuring both the strength and sensuality to pull off both the upbeat living-room and the pseudo-torch song Sous la lune.

In terms of lyrics, they are in French and, ugly American that I am, the only French I know relates to rich sauces and snails. There are English translations, but I have to say I like the ambiguity of not knowing what is being said, so I haven’t read them.

This is great cd and the fact that the guitar player is named Potzi cracks me up and I find myself tapping my foot and smiling every time I listen. How can you go wrong?
