Kingless Piano Lesson: « Cette année-là »
🕑 Added 2023-12-14 03:11:54 +0000 UTCWe introduce basic rhythm and chording patterns for ‘American’ pop music, which stem from the New African Church, as well as perhaps Irish uilleann pipe drones which scintillate back and forth, moving only a few notes at a time, and then taking on the rhythm of steam-powered machinery like the locomotive engine, around which the working class lived and breathed. In the song in question, Claude François, low-brow French pop star that he was, uses this medium to sing nostalgically about the revolutionary optimism of the 1960s—of which Ivan Morris was definitely an enemy—and the deep and undying love for the masses of the people which motivated Cloclo’s performing career: much better than the one American song about meeting a hot girl.
