Ultra hard to find 1st album by French caribbean singer, choreographer, guitarist, pianist, percussionist, actor, judoka and composer, Frantz Charles-Denis better known as Francisco. "La Biguine-Lélé" is certainly one of the most beautiful authentic biguine jazz album from Martinique. Includes "LéLé A" a captivating biguine flirting with mambo. In a very similar feel "Ah ! Catel" is also a monster tune straight out of the jungle. "Fileo" is also influenced by afro-cuban music with biguine rhythm ...
"Jou A Lili Te Batte Moin Yan" is another deep biguine from the traditional folklore.
A must have for caribbean jazz collector.
