JEAN-LOUIS MECHALI "TIE-BREAK + 2ND SET" (LE CHANT DU MONDE, 1987/88)






This is a post on behalf of E-mile.

Let us read what he says about this recording and how he came to post it:



Well, I made a mess of things...
also way back in the days when I recorded
this music....
Memory doesn't serve me well, but it seems I rented
the CD version of the Jean-Louis Mechali album...
Not the vinyl.
A TDK cassette 90 minutes is 45 minutes A+B each.
I would program the CD-player in order to get as close
to those minutes as I could.
In other words: I didn't tape the whole darn thing!
If you want to hear all of this, spend at least 18 euro's
and try to obtain this CD:

This is the original CD version's tracks:

1.5:30 ricochets
2.8:16 lembranca
3.4:19 dream-ambulation dans la ville blanche
4.4:31 halogene
5.4:28 villa les mimosas
6.8:50 la grive ... envine
7.4:59 la criee
8.2:43 big bang
9.5:37 ballade a contre-jour
10.2:48 tamaris marine
11.3:27 la galerie aux portraits
12.4:46 night light + halflight
13.2:34 the underdog
14.3:47 derive de chaleur
15.3:42 le fil du temps

3-Night Light and Halflight 4.46
4-Derive De Chaleur 3.47

hope you enjoy the music,
it's in decent 320 mp3,
alas no FLAC for ancient TDK cassettes [:-)

James, thank you for the Quirky classification, when I heard this back after so many years, quirky is indeed a good way to describe this music [:-) Our good friend Mew23 posted (in response) a post over at ROAL with the - impossible to find- 2CD set of Jean-Louis Mechali's 1993 Cine-Club cd (just as quirky, trust me) and I will ask him if it's OK to share it her at The Sol....
so stay tuned.
peace, E-mile

Here's a rip of the CD "Tie-Break + 2e Set" (1988), with scans. For the CD edition a second set of six pieces was added to the original LP content.
