    do you like Cerrone's non-disco records?

    I've noticed that people here seem to rarely discuss them. I'm listening to two of them, "Your Love Survived" and "Where Are You Now"? I find them pleasant (as pop music goes) but they don't touch me the way his disco classics do.

    His 1982 opus is quite good but why the fourth side of the lp features just one song, the excellent "Call me tonight", while "Freak connection" (another excellent song) is not on the lp but on a separate 12"?

    It's Cerrone...:icon_rolleyes:
    I'd bet the 2nd LP for "Your Love Survived" was, much more a marketing decision, than a creative one.
    Though the remixes are really quite good, it's just Cerrone recycling old material, again.

    I don't consider it disco but 'Club Underworld' was a pretty good dance track in 1984. Ever heard it?

    I like a Cerrone's non-disco called ''Naked to You''. The song has a fantastic rhyme too:


    Between the ocean and the sky above
    I'm standing naked in the eyes of love.

    This is a very good one, it comes from the big events Marc started organizing over the last years.


    And of course his movie soundtracks which are not really Disco either:


    And his "operas" 'The Collector' and 'Orange Mécanique'.

    The "Brigade mondaine" soundtracks are three: the first one "Brigade mondaine", "La Secte de Marrakech" and "Vaudou aux Caraïbes" (1978, 1979, 1980). They are more or less the same: instrumental synth music, old songs recycled, 30 minute long each. Not the same level as the real Cerrone albums. There is a site called "disco2go" with infos on those lp's.
