Re: Enrico Macias

[Sylvia Schildt <creativa...>]

Macias is magnificent, haunting at times, funny also.  We discovered him
back in the 70's while watching TV in a Quebec motel of all places  He is
well known there, virtually unknown in the States. Everytime we visited
Quebec we would try to pick up his latest.

How does one procure this latest CD???

Another link to Jewish musicians/singers of the Arab world is Enrico Macias,
née Gaston Ghrenassia (his dad played with Cheik Raymond, if I'm not
mistaken)-when I first went to Paris in the late seventies I fell in love
with his songs..."Soleil, soleil de mon pays perdu..." Ah!

The other day I read about a new CD that's just come out by Enrico Macias
called Oranges amères (Bitter oranges), again on the theme of the Algeria he
left behind.
