chinese 1972 - "Look" (in English) never appeared on a any officially album release of Barbra's. But "Look" was the B-Side of the 1967 single "Stout Hearted Men," which was probably why it wasn't widely heard. "Stout Hearted Men" was one of her least successful reworkings of popular songs, not nearly as effective as "Happy Days" "Tomorrow" or the whimsical "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf." But SOMEDAY, SOMEHOW, we'll find a new way to hear it. We'll find a loud voice to cheer it. Someday!
Yes, the song "Le Mur" appeared on the All-French EP (Extended Play, an LP but with limited tracks) entitled "En Francais," and contained this lovely song entitled "Et La Mer" in French, and "Look" in English. It is beautiful, and it's a shame the EP has never been officially released (in the USA) in it's entirety...as a bonus feature as least. (What a fantastic way to remaster and rerelease "Je M'Appelle Barbra.") "Martina" was also recorded in all French as "Les Enfants Qui Pleurent."
Prrobably Michel Legrande who did her Je m'appelle Barbra album arranged it ????? Love the songs want to learn them like when I was a kid:)...

Apparently this EP was only released in Europe...
By the way, I was born after the vinyl era, so what does EP stand for?

I was able to buy this ep in the 4 song version, Non, c'est rien, les enfants qui
pleurent, le mur et la mer. I think those were the 4 songs. The cover of the ep is
very elegant.
