To be honest I'm not sure if it was 1994 - could have been any point between 93 & 99! I'd go for 94/95! No record of it on line. You could try contacting Folkworks who ought to have it on their books:

http://www.sagegateshead.com/about-us/folkworks/

The only thing I remember about the concert is that he sang Pierre de Grenoble.

Sorry, I haven't a clue. I guess the Fylde organisers would have access to old programmes. Worth while contacting the festival - probably Alan Bell (his email is on their web page). It would probably be the end of August.

Gabrielle Yacoub appeared as part of a 'Ballad Concert' present by Folkworks at the Caedmon Hall in Gateshead in a stellar line-up that also featured Evelyn Giradon, Martin Carthy and Maddy Prior around - 1994? The concert was effectively an informal 'singaround' between the 4 performers with duets between Yacoub & Giradon and Carthy & Prior. Did they all do something together? Maybe they did. Great fun as I recall - I've still got Yacoub's 'Bel' CD that I bought that night, which, although very nice, isn't half as much fun as his full-on 80s synthpop 'Elementary Level of Faith' (ELF) from a few years earlier (which debuts his 'Les Choses les Plus Simples' very much as a pop song).

Thanx in advance for digging them out!

Indeed, Malicorne is currently touring France. Hope they'll tourother countries such as UK, Spain, Canada, US in 2014, why not?...

As far as I know, the concert at the Fylde folk festival occurred in September 1991 in Fleetwood, Lancashire, UK.

I know nothing about a possible concert in Manchester...

I saw Gabriel a number of times in the southwest with (at different times) Jean-Pierre Rasle and Nikki Matheson. If guest Lurulu is interested in those dates for some kind of calendar I can dig them out.

I note that Malicorne have a number of French gigs lined up soon. It would be great if they could get over here. Love the live video but really would like to seem them 'for real'.

Nice to see all those YouTube links I posted a few years back are still active down there. From hippy folk to 80s synth-pop - the Malicorne journey was never less than astutely observed. As Folk Roots once said - in the realms of Folk Rock Malicorne always knew what decade it was. I think they were unique in that respect alone!

I've always loved this - not least for the hurdy-gurdy solo; not the sort of thing you'd hear these days & more's the pity really! Not strictly speaking Malicorne, but they did feature a similar arrangement on their live album, although with a lower crumhorn that the one used here.

I hope some of you who are more local than California is (sigh) will be in attendance -- and that there will be a recording to be had here, later on. Had I but world enough, and time...

Pierre De Grenoble is not a Malicorne recording but a release from Gabriel & Marie Yacoub before Malicorne was formed. They did however subsequently recycle some of the material into the band's set. See my post of 9 February above.

Was a huge Malicorne fan ...also a fan of le Grand Rouge, when I lived in Lyon. I'll have to check out my vinyl and find out what I have and what I can now transfer to CD to listen to again in the car.

As to the Time Has Told Me blog ...we've already had this discussion several times over, but if the bloggers would only ask the makers of the music whether they wanted their back catalogue music to be available for download it would make their actions more acceptable. It would then give the makers of the music the chance to make their own choices about free downloads instead of feeling ripped off. When we contacted them about the Burnt Feathers album they were decidedly unpleasant and unhelpful, and considering they were supposed to be fans of my music this left me somewhat baffled.

I have only just "discovered" the blogspot called "Time Has Told Me". It's been going a coupla years and presents old and obscure folk and acoustic LPs for download (and also some more recent CDs! :~)

I noticed a fair swag of Malicorne, Yacoub and Quebecois, French, Breton, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian and other European folk-rock bands, amongst the selections.

Whether or not you agree with the poster's actions, there is a wealth of folk info about the artists and recordings offered, which I really appreciate.

Definitely a site in which to pleasantly lose some time!!

"Also nice are La Chifonnie and Le Grand Rouge..."

La Chiffonnie were absolutely amazing. Among the musicians were Diane Holmes-Brown (from England!), her husband Hal Colombes and two young brothers, Patrick and Serges Desaunay. La Chiffonie broke up; I think Diane and Hal parted. Hal reformed La Chiffonie, and they did a CD called Nouvelles Escales (EPM 983432). Among the tracks was a pretty stunning "Dans la Ville de Paris".

Guitarist Serges Desaunay recorded a solo LP, and accordionist Patrick Desaunay delighted the Llantrisant Folk Club crowd when he played, with vielle musician Patrick Bouffard and a bagpiper - I'm sorry, but I have forgotten his name.

No drums? I'm confused.

When I saw Malicorne live, there were certainly drums. In fact, as I recall, there was a drum set as large as my bedroom, plus the odd conga and hand drum. That was on the rock and roll side of the stage, where the electric guitar and bass players were. On the other side (what I thought of as the early music side of the stage) were the violinist, a woodwinds/reeds player, and Marie on vielle-a-roue and dulcimer. Gabriel stood in the middle.

Frankly, I don't agree with the Steeleye comparison. I'm far from fond of Steeleye...I never felt they brought much to the music beyond mere electrification, which was never enough for me. Malicorne, on the other hand, brought a wonderful, twisted sense of harmony and some really interesting instrumentation, not to mention brilliant arrangements. And although I don't actually adore the voice of Gabriel Yacoub (and found Marie's downright grating much of the time), I found that the sum was much greater than the parts.

I've never had an opportunity to hear the other bands you recommend, but I will look them up, assuming I can find them in the wilds of California.

Cheers,
Claire

Malicorne is all right but you have to like the voice of Gabriel Yacoub. Yacoub was a member of Alan Stivell's band before he founded Malicorne. Stivell was a rocker amongst the folkies and also Malicorne used electric insruments (but no drums!) For me, Malicorne sounds like a French Steeleye Span. Personally I like La Bamboche better.Their first three records are great. Also nice are La Chifonnie and Le Grand Rouge.

I came across Malicorne when I was a founder member of Swansea Jack in the seventies. The BBC invited us to appear at the Brest festival, and the sight and sounds of Breton and French bands playing traditional music just totally amazed and delighted us. I brought a Malicorne album (old man and child gazing up in the evening with a starry 'M') and I treasure it to this day - "La Blanche Biche," "Quand Je Menai Mes Chevaux Boire"... I just wept with joy. I saw Malicorne at the Pembroke Festival after that - it was sheer magic.

I saw Jean Blanchard in Brittany on Swansea Jack tours; he and our agent were an item. Beau Temps Sur La Province played twice at Llantrisant Folk Club, once with accordeon diatonique master Michel Pichon joining Jean and Evelyne Girardon, and once with Bruno Le Tron on the melodeon. (Which reminds me: I have a CD which Bruno produced, and on it is is a Bruno-written tune called Vals de Noel, or the Christmas Waltz. Players know it as a session tune, but Bruno holds the original melody!) Bruno had a excellent band called Maubissons, with Serge Liorzou the Breton bombarde player and Ti Jaz drummer Olivier Le Gallo. Serge still holds workshops at the annual Grand Bal, held in Bath.

I think Jean is living near Lyon and is totally immersed in French bagpipes. If you see him, tell him that Mick Tems says "Bonjour"!

Battle of the Field I'll accept; quite possibly the only album of the Hutchings school of the four-square thump that actually maages to find the groove. I must confess to a certain nostalgia bias here, but everything I heard in the Albion Band / Hutchings name thereafter left me cold (including No Roses). I'm not one for quoting Folk Roots, but in their review of the (admittedly shite) Cathedrales de L'Industrie album (1986), they pointed out that at least Malicorne knew what decade it was.
