Leo Ferré - A LAlhambra
Review by Anthony Reyes
Leo Ferré's album A LAlhambra is a masterpiece of French chanson. The album was recorded live at the legendary Parisian music hall, L'Alhambra, in 1961, and it showcases Ferré's unique and powerful voice, as well as his poetic and socially conscious lyrics.
The album features some of Ferré's most famous songs, such as "La Mémoire et la Mer," "Paris Canaille," and "Avec le Temps." Each song is performed with passion and intensity, and Ferré's voice is perfectly suited to the emotional depth of his lyrics.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "La Solitude," a haunting ballad that captures the feeling of loneliness and isolation. Ferré's voice is raw and vulnerable, and the sparse instrumentation only adds to the song's emotional impact.
Another highlight is "Le Piano du Pauvre," a bluesy number that showcases Ferré's skill as a pianist. The song's lyrics deal with poverty and inequality, and Ferré's voice is filled with anger and frustration.
