The French Sarah Vaughan...great stuff
Taking her cue from the legendary Black American jazz singers of the 1930’s, Liane Foly has developed her own modern swing style, combining emotional lyrics and infectious rhythms. With her soft, sensual vocals and her famous little black dresses, Liane Foly could not fail to make her mark on the French music scene in the 1990’s.
The album "Rêve orange" has revealed a new-style Liane Foly. Sporting a sleek, dark bob à la Louise Brooks and an entire wardrobe of sexy little black dresses, Liane Foly seemed destined to become the French siren of the 1990’s. The songs on the new album, written by the successful trio Foly/Manoukian/Viennet, draw their inspiration from the French and American jazz world once again, but the tempo of "Rêve Orange" is even more mellow and langourous than Foly’s début album "The Man I Love". The new-style Liane Foly certainly proved a huge hit with the French public. "Au fur et à mesure", the first single release from the new album, did extremely well in the charts and Ms. Foly soon went on to triumph at the "Victoire de la musique" awards where she was voted Best Female Newcomer of 1991. Liane Foly soon followed this success with another professional triumph when later that year the Sacem (the French association of Songwriters and Composers) presented her with their prestigious Prix Raoul Breton.
Listen to this and fall in love with a great jazz chanteuse.
