ANNE LONNBERG XCED 521 174 T (-69) FRANCE

American actress of Swedish descent. Multi-lingual and fluid in both English and French, she's done a number of supporting roles for TV-series and films in different countires - Woody Allen's "Love And Death", "Moonraker" and "The Unbearable Lightness Of Being" among others. Worked a lot in Greece and France with parts in a number of domestic movies and TV-shows. She also recorded this LP for the French Riviera label in the late sixties. Side one has English lyrics and side two is in French. Eight of the twelve songs are self-penned or collaborations. Her voice is natural, almost innocent, wich fits the albums soothing atmosphere. The genres are baroque, folk and ballads - most of it rather heavily orchestrated although never overwhelming. Very good listening and I'm surprised it wasn't released anywhere else or got a follow-up. Don't know if it's available on CD. This French issue came with label as shown here and thin, fully laminated cover. (FÄV*)(SYSÖ*)(MFÄX*) (GZÅ*)
