I've always loved these spartan productions sung from Franco's soul like this and "La Vie Des Hommes," "Ida," etc.

  • With deep sadness.A helthy Franco,was just a year away to Pass on.I enjoy listenning to his Musical fire though can NOT decode a single word.Thanks Rahndi.

  • My unsolicited two cents. The human voice is an instrument. It has abstract qualities as well as literary qualities. The abstract qualities are an important poetry. People listen to opera and think nothing of the fact that they can't understand the language. They do pick up on the subtle emotions conveyed by the singer. Franco sure assembled talents that were the best that the human voice has to offer (on any country or continent). He also got the greatest uncompromised compositions from them.

  • Im figuring out where/when this gig happened.Salute rahndi.

  • When? The sign in back of the stage says 1987. Where? Twice the performers (once by Franco) say "Utrecht, O' Yea!" I take this to mean they are in The Netherlands (aka Holland).

  • Yes, I was there in Utrecht, 1987, in a giant dark factory hall, saw & swinged with Franco & his band before (in Delft, Amsterdam,The Hague) but now we knew his time was running out, so they were playing like crazy en with shivers & quivers we were swinging our brains out. Franco, pour toujours.

  • Is it possible to have a copy of CD and dvd pls?
