Influences
I grew up loving many many things, from A for Aerosmith to C for Cat Stevens to D for Donny Hathaway and Django Reinhardt to G for Grant Green to J for Julie Andrews and Joao Gilberto to P for Perez Prado to Q for Quincy Jones to Z for Zap Mama ........ but here's what's in my latest IPOD compilation and this changes constantly.

Sessions Acoustique Au hasard des rencontres et des propositions. Voilà comment on essaie de faire naviguer notre vieux rafiot. Voilà comment on se retrouve dans le bar des luxueux locaux d'EMI avec Stacey Kent et ses deux musiciens. Après avoir répété pour notre session et cherché quel endroit irait le mieux pour filmer, Stacey Kent aussi simple qu'adorable nous propose de rester dans ce bar qui ressemble à un hall ou uce hall qui ressemble à un bar. Tout simplement. Et si il est vrai qu'on a un peu hésité à mettre en ligne à cause d'un mix des plus inégalitaires (pas facile de rivalier avec un saxo ténor !!!), on s'est vite dit que l'on ne pouvait pas garder ses deux chansons juste pour nous... Merci à Stacey Kent et ses deux musiciens, merci à EMI et merci à Benoit.

Hi Stacey,
The rainy season, known as Tsuyu in Japan, is over. So it's finally summer! Fireworks add a sort of poetic charm to the summer season, and from July to August, fireworks displays are held in many areas. Hope you're having an enjoyable week! Always Best!
