Silvain Vanot - Bethesda - [Vinyl]

Pion (John Cale, Hector Zazou...) on bass clarinet and flute, engineer Steve Powell (The Stairs, Michael Head & The Strands, Ella Guru...) behind the desk and, of course, Silvain himself on guitars, harp and a few other things. In one week they recorded eleven songs of lost love and wit, surrounded by snowy mountains and frozen lakes, sharing mutual tastes for silly jokes, improvisation and absinthe (though not necessarily in that order). From the opening notes of O? Mon Tour, a Country waltz with a discreet Southern Soul flavour to the soft eastern Psychedelia of Les Fleurs, via Nature Boy (e?trange garc?on) - a French sailor take on Eden Ahbez's classic, Silvain takes you on the most unexpected voyage to BETHESDA, a place which in Hebrew means 'House of Grace'.
