"Never one to settle on a single musical style, Brigitte Fontaine followed up her debut,
Est?Folle
, and her astonishing collaboration with The Art Ensemble of Chicago,
Comme à la Radio
, with the most eclectic release of her lengthy career, 1972's
Brigitte Fontaine
. It is telling that Fontaine chose an eponymous title for her third album, the sole release from her venerable '70s catalogue attributed to her alone. Here the actress-cum-singer has finally arrived. From the introspective opening track, simply named 'Brigitte,' seductive melodies perfectly hang above slithery bass lines and acoustic strumming. On 'Moi Aussi,' a sparse and trance-like duet with long-time collaborator Areski, Fontaine muses,
'They put me in a cage and after they told me 'You fly down.''
Brigitte Fontaine is an unmatched European art-pop masterpiece anchored by both vocal and lyrical dexterity?in many ways, Fontaine's most compelling work and an excellent entry point for those unfamiliar with this unique French icon."
