lyrics
English translation:
At the Place Dauphine there are souls of Kings,
singing the history of winter
And the sound of this ancient rabble
reminds me of a comic opera I once liked
Last summer, I visited Paris and her mysterious laws
One day last summer, I met a foreign friend
I danced alone under English arcs –
I searched far from me for great feeling,
I heard your shapes in the clamor
The black and white of my childhood
follows me now through the streets and along the riverbanks
Here, once, all my defenses suffocated in a kiss
The commerce and the crowd of your face everywhere
silences me like a fever of colors in my heart –
I sense your tears approaching, but
At the Place Dauphine there are souls of Kings,
singing the history of winter
And the sound of this ancient rabble
reminds me of a comic opera I once liked
At the Place Dauphine there are souls of Kings,
singing the history of winter
And the sound of this ancient rabble
reminds me of a comic opera I once liked
Last summer, I visited Paris and her mysterious laws
One day last summer, I met a foreign friend
I danced alone under English arcs –
I searched far from me for great feeling,
I heard your shapes in the clamor
The black and white of my childhood
follows me now through the streets and along the riverbanks
Here, once, all my defenses suffocated in a kiss
The commerce and the crowd of your face everywhere
silences me like a fever of colors in my heart –
I sense your tears approaching, but
At the Place Dauphine there are souls of Kings,
singing the history of winter
And the sound of this ancient rabble
reminds me of a comic opera I once liked

A very difficult album to categorize, it spans genre; or perhaps ignores is a better description. In general one could call it avantprogfusion with occasional dives into the quasi-classical.While he doesn't sound at all like Zappa, I can't help but feel Zappa is his spiritual godfather. This is VERY good.

Another gem of rock history for half the price, thanks to a "Cuneiform" promotional offer. Phil Miller has left his glow-in-the dark footsteps forever as one of the sculptors of the "Canterbury" sound, while being a member of "Matching Mole", "Hatfield and the North", and "National Health". He always was more on the "fusion track" of "Canterbury", and fusion is what he did later. My favorite tracks are those three he plays alone using a lot of MIDI guitar. Great fretless bass on the other ones!
