Description

Up for auction is a vinyl copy of Brigitte Fontaine's self-titled album, "Brigitte Fontaine," on Saravah Records.  Saravah Records Cat.# SH 10034.  A really nice copy of this hard to find album!

Cover is in EX/borderline NM condition.  Almost no ringwear, creasing, or shelfwear.  No seam splitting or staining.
Vinyl is in NM condition.  A very well cared for copy of this title.  No skipping on either of my turntables.  Sounds amazing!  Extremely glossy.

The All-Music Guide has this to say:
This self-titled LP -- from uncertain date, but probably later than Je Ne Connais Pas Cet Homme, as the catalog number is higher -- is a more successful and listenable bridge between her pop and experimental impulses. For one thing, Areski only co-wrote a couple of these tunes and is not often heard on vocals. More importantly, the content is less jarring and more appealing, though equally eclectic. "Brigitte" has the sort of jazz-pop-makeout music mix that will entice fans of Françoise Hardy's 1971 album La Question. "L'Auberge," by contrast, could pass muster on a classical LP, sounding like a pious church hymn. Most of the material falls between these two poles, including some spoken poetry and pieces on which Fontaine is backed by little more than African-sounding drums. It's worth checking out for fans of fractured '70s art-pop with progressive and jazz influences.
