I have spent about 1/2hr searching using Google, Yahoo and Alta Vista with no joy. My French is probably worse than yours but I even tried the French version of Alta Vista. Jon |

13 Oct 10 - 01:58 PM (#3006201) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Petit fleur by : D.Lindley From: Jim Dixon David Lindley performed PETIT FLEUR (sic) on his album "El Rayo-X" (1981). Authorship is credited to "Feldthouse/Lindley." That would probably be David Lindley and Solomon Feldthouse, who performed together as members of Kaleidoscope. Kaleidoscope also performed PETITE FLEUR on their albums— "Incredible!" (1968; reissued 1991 and 1997). "Blues From Baghdad: The Very Best of Kaleidoscope" (1995) "Infinite Colours Infinite Patterns: The Best of Kaleidoscope" (2001). "Pulsating Dreams: The Epic Recordings" (2004) On those albums, the songwriting credit varies, but it always seems to be various band members. I listened to some samples, but I was unable to understand any significant amount of the lyrics. (I am not that fluent in French.) The style is a Cajun waltz. You can hear Kaleidoscope's recording of PETITE FLEUR on YouTube. According to orthodox French grammar, the spelling should be PETITE FLEUR, that is, feminine. |
