Originally released in 1973, Je Ne Connais Pas Cet Homme is their first record billed under both names.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"break\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"break\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDeeply rooted in North African and European folk traditions, the album features evocative vignettes with breezy vocals and minimal accompaniment of classical guitar, strings and woodwinds.\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"break\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAs always, there is a mercurial quality to their lyrics. The title track (translated as “I Do Not Know This Man”) suggests at once Apostle Peter’s denial and a poetic acknowledgement. On “C’est Normal” Fontaine playfully questions the status quo while Areski offers satirical answers. What makes Je Ne Connais Pas Cet Homme one of their best-loved albums, though, is its remarkable sense of intimacy—as if Areski and Fontaine beckon listeners into their strange and beautiful world. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"break\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis first-time domestic release continues Superior Viaduct’s reissue campaign of Fontaine’s classic ’70s catalog.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"break\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSuperior Viaduct, 2015\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"naturestripstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44304135618801,"sku":"","price":46.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/8859\/0065\/files\/areskifontaine_jeneconnais.webp?v=1707528384","url":"https:\/\/naturestripstore.myshopify.com\/products\/areski-et-brigitte-fontaine-je-ne-connais-pas-cet-homme-lp","provider":"naturestripstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
