I had this up before, but wanted to share it once again. Since I've already posted an Italian compilation looking at Bossa Nova's influence on Italy, then it's time to look at an important little label out of France run by actor/musician/studio-head Pierre Barouh & his brilliant Saravah imprint. The range here is mindblowing. French Bossa Nova, French Jazz, French Folk, African Pop, French Soul, etc, etc. This is one that I'm still taking in. There are so many good tracks here that I'll just single out a few personal favorites. "On N'a Rien a Faire" by Pierre Barouh is great, swinging French Jazz Pop circa 1966. My other pick is the delicate French Bossa Folk number "Un Jour, Un Papillon" by Joel Favreau from 1970. Very sweet! I'm sure you'll find lots to enjoy here. A nice look at the warm embrace that Bossa Nova received from the French & a whole lot more. Enjoy!

Hello Tyme,

I'm fascinated by the connections between french chanson and the brasilian songwriting tradition
Would love to have volume 2 of this when you get a chance
Do you have Claude Nougaro's "Bidonville" lp?..from what ive heard its amazing
Thanks from London UK
Wow can't thank you enough for this and your wonderful samba compilations--joyous stuff;fascinated by the links with french and brasilian music in the 60s and 70s--now don't suppose you have Claude Nougaros "Bidonville" lp do you??....from what little ive heard its very cool stuff
one tip--try 70's french singer songwriter Helene Martin's stuff!!--amazing brasilian meets french music
greetings from London
Hi Violao62, No, I do not have or know of Claude Nougaro's "Bidonville"LP, but I'll ask around & see if I can track down a copy. So thanks for that & the tip off on Helene Martin's work. I will post volume 2 of this series, but I do not know the set as well as volume 1. It's taken me a few years of listening to open up fully to the first volume alone.
Here's the link for part 2.

Violao62, Thank you very much for the share. My dance queue is long, but I'll get around to it shortly. Sounds great!
Violao62, Unfortunately, Track 6 & track 10 are missing from the score.
