• Jehro- Passers-by /Josephine Sacabo p... Passers-by (a song adapted from Georges Brassens Les Passantes ) vocals guitar: Jehro, drum programming: Tony Court, lyrics: Antoine Pol/Georges Brassens, photography: Josephine Sacabo • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ • Fusing the style of classic French songwriters like Jacques Brel and Georges Brassens with the sounds of rock, reggae, and calypso, Jehro (aka Jerome Cotta) was born in Marseille and raised in a household with a diverse range of musical influences -- his father, who was French, was a singer in the classic French tradition, while his mother was of Greek, Italian, and Corsican heritage and enjoyed a wide variety of European music. When he was 20, Jehro left France to pursue a musical career in London; he found a home in a squat he shared with fellow musicians from Jamaica and Spain, and he received a crash course in rock roll, U.K. pop, and especially reggae, as he fell in love with the voice and songs of Bob Marley. Taking what he'd learned, Jehro relocated to France and began making the rounds of the city's night clubs. In 1999, he released his first album under the name Jerome Cotta, L'Arbre et le Fruit, and while it received strong reviews, Jehro spent the next several years collaborating with other artists. After striking up a friendship with Christian Brun and Richard Minier of Marathonians, Jehro contributed vocals to their 2003 release, A Tropical Soul Adventure, and he wrote songs for Veronica Antico's 2002 album Les Portes du Ciel. In order to make the most of his growing range of international influences, Jehro formed a group with guitarist Jean MBa, drummer Julien Tekeyan, and vocalists Janice and Audrey; both the group and their debut album were titled Jehro, and the album proved to be a major critical and commercial success in Europe upon its release in 2006. https://www.allmusic.com/artist/jehro... http://funrisers.ru/артисты/зарубежны... • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ • Joséphine Sacabo works in a very subjective, introspective style. She uses poetry as the genesis of her work and lists poets as her most important influences, among them Rilke, Baudelaire, Pedro Salinas, Vincente Huiobro, and Juan Rulfo. “A photographer, Josephine Sacabo began to extricate--from the shadows, from the desolate landscapes, from the night sky, from the voices of the stones, from the murmuring of the dead, from the spines of the cactus--not only the patrón, Pedro Páramo, but also Susana San Juan, most luminous of all women, most inaccessible, most deranged, sanest, boldest…. When one looks at the artist’s photographs, it is clear that they are not the work of an illustrator but rather of an illuminata, a widow, a mourner, a tragic heroine, a Texan of ancient Greece.” ~ Elena Poniatowska • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ • Georges Charles Brassens (22 October 1921 – 29 October 1981) was a French singer-songwriter and poet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges... • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ • Antoine Pol (August 23, 1888 in Douai – June 21, 1971 in Seine-Port) was a French poet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoine... • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ • I sing you a song that I offer • To all the women you love for • A moment, a brief secrettime • To those that you scarcely • Had met when • A different destiny led them • To places you can't even find • To her that you saw • For an instant • Appear at • Her window quite distant • Then suddenly vanish away, • Her slim silhouette • A mere outline • So gracefully faded • For all time • But filled you with joy come • To stay • To her on a train • You were travelling • Whose beautiful eyes left you • marvelling • And shortened • The journey so much, • Perhaps • You alone understood her, • you watched her get out: • But you could not • Even give her soft hand • One light touch • To women already bespoken • Who find their life's • A mere token • With someone • That seems not to care. • They once, • In a moment of madness • Described the unbearable • Sadness • When life holds • Our only despair • The vision once • Glimpsed and idealised, • The shortest-lived hopes, • Never realised, • Remains in our minds • Just one day • Whatever brief happiness • Takes you • The memory • Will quickly forsake you • Of those you once met • On your way • But feeling • Your life has been wasted • You wish with regret • That you'd tasted • And known-what • These joys might • Have been: • The kisses • You dared not discover, • The hearts that await • You forever, • Those eyes and • Their glances unseen • When weariness lengthens • Your evenings • You people your solitude, • Grieving, • With phantoms • Your memory retains • You mourn absent • Lips of these countless • Fair passers-by briefly • Encountered • You didn't know how • To detain. • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
