Autour de Lucie Ce Que Lon Tait from LÉchappée Bell on Maroon Vinyl LP
Over 25 years after their buoyant breezy electroacoustic debut busted language barriers showing that French language music could build a buzz on all sides of the Atlantic, Autour de Lucies debut finally gets the vinyl treatment Their 94 debut finally makes its way to vinyl Part of the late 90s French language pop resurgence ushered in by Gainsbourg reissues, and the emergence of staples like Stereolab, Air, and April March. Cut by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio and pressed on colored vinyl here in the states From the opening bird calls and ringingbell guitar chimes of captivating lead track L accord parfait, Paris demure Autour de Lucie serves notice that winning Anglostyle pop need not be a slave to language or geographical barriers. Gorgeous and luxuriously atmospheric, the group evokes the traditional, electroacoustic innocence of such other femaleled ensembles as the Sundays and St. Etienne. Roch Parisien (AllMusic)
