After the groundbreaking Comme à la Radio, energized by the free jazz tumult of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, Brigitte Fontaine and Areski Belkacem produced six albums together or separately between 1972 and 1977. While French pop of the time was marked by lush orchestrations, Fontaine and Belkacem’s songs were often recorded live, typically accompanied only by guitar and percussion, or performed a cappella.
