 La Révoltion Française

" C-Cool "

 

 

CANUSA  CLJ-33-112, 1968 original issue/pressing (Canada)

 

Singer Francois Guy quit Les Sinners in October,1968.   His next move was to form La Revolution Francaise with fellow Sinners guitar player Jean-Guy Cossette, bassist Georges Marchant, and drummer Louis Parizeau.     Signed by singer/producer Tony Roman to his small CANUSA label,  the group recorded "C-Cool", their debut album.

 

 " While the first side wasn't exactly lysergic drenched wildness, it was clearly more experimental than previous "Sinners" releases.......tracks like 'Et La Terre Tournera' incorporating a tasty hard rock edge while retaining the earlier group's commercial sound.    Even conventional ballads like 'Coule L'Amour' and the Baroque-tinged 'Pierre-Paul Ladouceaur' reflected a modest psychy feel complete with pounding keyboards and drifty, acid influenced atmospherics.      

The side long title track "C-Cool" was a different story.   Set against strumming acoustic guitars with occasional sound effects, isolated electric guitar runs, and even a sitar interlude, the song featured a weird, meandering mixture of spoken word narratives and isolated song fragments.  Guy sounded pretty intense (or perhaps simply stoned). "
