Search - The Art Ensemble of Chicago :: Can't We Fall in Love

2008 reissue of the soundtrack to this long lost cult classic of French New Wave cinema Les Stances a Sophie has been out of print for over 30 years and this is its first release ever outside of France. Filmed in Paris in 1970, this fully-subtitled film features killer music, groovy clothes and post-1968 revolutionary ideals. This super-rare film is now perhaps best known for its soundtrack from the legendary Art Ensemble of Chicago (who also feature in the film). The album features the epic 'Theme de Yoyo', the Art Ensemble of Chicago's finest ever moment featuring the soaring vocals of Fontella Bass and the super=heavy Funk drums of then current newcomer to the Art Ensemble Don Moye. The Art Ensemble of Chicago were living in Europe in 1970 when the film was made along with a host of other U.S. Jazz ?migr?s such as Archie Shepp, Ornette Coleman and more. Seven tracks. Soul/Jazz.
