JOHAN OF ARC cover Leonard Cohen/Graeme Allwright by JP

[Jean Pierre]

it's a song (Johan of Arc) by Leonard Cohen (...who didn't deserve the Nobel Prize for Literature). It has been beautifully translated into French by a singer...from New Zealand Graeme Allwright

I will post tomorrow a video with the French lyrics as a subtitle and a little biographical note on this singer, Graeme Allwright

Hi Jean,
Love this version, love your singing, very emotional.
Very nice instrumentation.
Nice recording.

So lovely. And I'm a sucker for accordion – very authentic sounding. (I wish I could get a good accordion sound from GarageBand or from my SY-1. I'd put it in every damn song.)

Where's that video you promised?

Thanks Ted, indeed I forgot to make this video..but I will do it if only as a tribute to Leonard Cohen..and his French translator Graeme Alwright...and for your pleasure 

c'est une belle chanson

Je vous ai envoyé un SM au sujet d'une collaboration. Envoyez-moi un DM si vous êtes intéressé. C'est pour le Festival de 3/4, donc nous devons travailler rapidement.
