Jacques Romain Georges Brel was a Belgian singer, songwriter, actor and director who composed and performed literate, thoughtful, and theatrical songs that generated a large, devoted following – initially in Belgium and France, later throughout the world. He is considered a master of the modern chanson. Enregistrement Public à l’Olympia 1961 is his first live album. Also known as A L’Olympia, the album was reissued in October 2003 under Jacques Brel’s reissue campaign, and year later as SACD.
The 1961 gig offers the premier recordings of “Madeleine” and “Les Bourgeois” in addition to 13 hits. Brel’s humor is sharp, like a stiletto. His reading of his hit “La Valse à Mille Temps” reveals him to be in great spirits and apparently included a bit of theater with a prop. In addition, the reading of his classic “Ne Me Quitte Pas” (Please Don’t Leave Me) is perhaps his finest on record. Accompanied by an accordionist and pianist as well as a drummer and a brass section, the sheer joie de vivre of this performance is over the top. This is a brilliant set, and a great place to start for anyone wishing to encounter the seductive and dark power of Brel for the first time.
