Barbara – Chante Barbara (Vinyl LP, Philips 6332 103)
Barbara – Chante Barbara is a classic French chanson LP from one of the genre's most distinctive singer-songwriters. Released on Philips under catalogue number 6332 103, this French stereo edition presents Barbara singing and accompanying herself on piano, supported on various recordings by musicians and orchestral arrangements.
The album collects twelve characteristically intimate compositions, including “Nantes,” “Pierre,” “Le Bel Age,” “A Mourir Pour Mourir,” “Au Bois De Saint-Amand,” “Gare De Lyon” and “Paris 15 Août.” Barbara's restrained piano playing, highly expressive voice and deeply personal songwriting give the record the dramatic and melancholic character for which she became celebrated within French chanson.
This is an attractive vintage Made in France Philips pressing, complete with its period paper inner sleeve. The outer sleeve has clearly acquired considerable patina over the years, including yellowing, spotting and edge wear, so this should be sold as a genuine vintage copy rather than a cosmetically pristine example. The black vinyl itself looks considerably cleaner than the packaging and retains a strong glossy appearance.
