I Was There! Sparks at Carling Academy Islington London

Sparks Mania in London Part 2

Some of the things that relates to me with respect to Sparks and their series of shows are locations around Islington London where they are doing their series of shows. For instance the Collins Music Hall, where Charlie Chaplin often performed on its stage in 1916. This theater is two blocks away from the Carling Academy, the venue that is having the Sparks shows.







These videos that I am sharing with you is in a sense to amuse myself with while writing. As I mentioned I am in London to see all the Sparks' shows in Islington.


"When I am With You" Promo video


"Singing in the Shower" Sparks with the fantastic and super great Les Rita Mitsuoko. From a TV show? Looks like they just filmed it off their living room TV set.

"La Dolce Vita"

Sparks Mania in London

Well, I am in London and in London for one purpose - and that purpose is to go to all 21 shows to hear the 21 albums (live of course) by Sparks. So far it has been beyond fantastic. Almost dream like experience. I am writing a book about it, the experience as well as the shows. But anyway I want to share some images of this great band.

TamTam Books (In Paris at the moment) Tribute to Michel Legrand

Since I am staying in Paris right now I want to share with you what's in my head and heart. In two words: Michel Legrand. Do listen and see.



Legrand Jazz


Michel Legrand "La Valse des lilas" 1955


Legrand with Hef and Bunnies. "What Are You Doing The Rest of Your Life"


Michel Legrand with his fantastic sister Christine Legrand


"Les demoiselies de Rocherfort" Jacques Demy film with Legrand music


My favorite Legrand song from "Peau d'Ane" Jacques Demy's tribute to Cocteau - with music by Legrand of course.


"fee des lilas" from "peau d'ane" This is truly my favorite piece of music of all time. It's beautiful! My life in music form!


Trailer for Cléo de 5 a 7 (Agnes Varda) Legrand did the music and also is in the film.


Another beautiful song by Legrand, with him on the piano and singing. From "Cléo de 5 a 7"

"In order to judge what has happened, or even what will happen, one need only examine what is happening. ... Events which occur every day, movements which succeed each other and repeat themselves without interruption, constant and constantly reiterated operations, these are our causes and our reasons."
