Jacques Brel - Les Marquises (With Bonus Tracks)

Remastered 2004 this edition includes 5 Bonus Tracks

& 8220;In 1973, after he stopped his acting career, Jacques Brel decides to travel around the world. On his boat, the Askoy II - bought in 1974, he sails the tropical seas. But he knows his fate his scealed, he has lung cancer. In 1976, his doctors tell him that he cannot be cured. He then move to the Marquesas where he writes the songs composing this album. The album is released on November 17th of 1977, one million copies have been pre-ordered.

This testament album includes some of his best songs : Jaurès, an homage to the socialist politician murdered just before World War I; Knokke-Le Zoute Tango where he openly sings about sex and prostitution in Amsterdam - his descriptions of these women had never been that precise before; Les F... a song defending french speaking culture in Belgium and mocking Flemish speaking people (he is Flemish himself) on a slightly disco music which differenciates it from the other tracks of this album.

Five of the songs here are from the musical Vilebrequin : Voir un ami pleurer, Vieillir, Les remparts de Varsovie, Le bon dieu and Knokke-Le-Zoute Tango. These great songs alone make this album a must hear. Voir un ami pleurer and Vieillir are very melancholic which makes sense considering Brel knew he was doomed when he wrote it. Les remparts de Varsovie is more upbeat and cheerful though quite machist, it has to be told that Brel had never hidden he favoured man frienship over women's love.

The original album ended on Les Marquises, a hymn to his final home where Brel lived a simple and harmonious life awaiting his death. He died on October 9th of 1978, he had left the Marquesas two days before. He has been buried in the Marquesas in the same cemetery than French painter Paul Gauguin.

This 2004 remastered edition includes 5 bonus tracks of what might have been Brel's new album had he lived a little longer...

& 8220;Si le rock est la musique qui exprime le mieux la révolte et la subversion, le rejet du conformisme, de l'hypocrisie et de la morale bourgeoise, alors Brel (avec Brassens) est notre plus grand chanteur de rock. N'en déplaise à Johnny Halliday - franchement vous imaginez Brel aller chanter pour Bernadette Chirac ?

Cet album est le chant du cygne de Brel. Peut-être son plus beau. La présence de chansons drôlatiques (le lion, Les remparts de Varsovie) n'empêche pas que la tonalité générale de l'album est sombre et hanté par la mort approchant (Vieillir, Jojo, les Marquises). Brel y règle une dernière fois ses comptes avec les Flamands au travers d'un pamphlet particulièrement acerbe et enlevé (ce qui lui vaudra un procès d'associations flamandes) sur une musique de Caetono Veloso. L'album s'ouvre sur Jaurès - une de ses chansons les plus engagées politiquement et socialement, qui est comme un testament et une supplique aux générations futures, se terminant par ses mots "demandez-vous belle jeunesse... pourquoi ont-ils tué Jaurès". Question toujours brûlante d'actualité pour notre époque si va-t-en guerre et à la misère galopante...

Brel savait sa fin proche en raison du cancer des poumons qui le rongeait. Le disque a été enregistré dans un état d'urgence ; les séances avaient lieu très tôt le matin, car Brel n'était pas en état de chanter après une certaine heure. Pressé par le temps, François Rauber a écrit l'arrangement des Marquises en une nuit, et c'est un de ses plus beaux par sa force d'évocation, son caractère impressionniste et l'alliance parfaite aux mots de Brel. On pourrait mentionner également 'La ville s'endormait", chef d'oeuvre de poésie et de musique, avec son arrangement crépusculaire.
