Solo set by Bernard Ilous -- very flowery and very 'Seventies... David Gates would be proud. Maybe Colin Blunstone, too.
Welcome to my French pop and rock section... Here are a few recommendations to albums I've enjoyed that I think you might like as well, ranging from 1960s ye-ye to a few more contemporary albums from France's blossoming indie and electronica scenes. There is also a separate section for older musical styles, such as chanson and musette, if you like the old stuff, too!
Ilous "Pele Mele" (Flamophone, 2009)
Solo set by Bernard Ilous -- very flowery and very 'Seventies... David Gates would be proud. Maybe Colin Blunstone, too.
Ilous & Decuyper "Ilous & Decuyper" (Flamophone, 2008)
Reissue of 1970's material from the pop-folk duo including Patrice Decuyper and Bernard Ilous, who also released some solo stuff in the early '70s...
Les Innocents "Cent Metres Au Paradis" (Virgin-France, 1989)
Les Innocents "Fous A Lier" (Virgin-France, 1992)
Les Innocents "Post-Partum" (Virgin-France, 1995)
Les Innocents "Les Innocents" (1999)
Les Innocents "Meilleurs Souvenirs" (Virgin-France, 2003)
A generously programmed collection, ranging over their 1990s career... Very mellow, spacy, cerebral stuff.
