The album market as we know it didn’t exist in France before 1968. Given the chance to stretch out on a full-length album, and given the political climate, musicians quickly began to think in terms of song cycles. It made sense that the more adventurous acts working in French pop would want to expand their musical palette in the new era, moving closer to both the literary bent of chanson and the progressive and psychedelic sounds of Anglo-American rock. The album was seized upon as a means of expression for already established acts; the result was such era-defining records as Michel Polnareff’s Polnareff’s, Françoise Hardy’s La Question and Serge Gainsbourg’s Histoire De Melody Nelson. The unsettled national mood also dictated more darkly accented music for films and TV.

Paris In The Spring is a collection of the new music, put together by Saint Etienne's Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs, that emerged from France between 1968 and the mid-70s, an extraordinary blend of several previously independent strains French chanson and yé-yé, American jazz and funk, British chamber pop shot through with the era's underlying mixture of optimism . But this is one of the few tracks on Paris in the Spring which seriously pushes any boundaries or is in keeping with the radical times celebrated by the album’s theme. So, Paris in the Spring is not an album to challenge preconceptions of French pop in the way that English Weather did with British rock, but it’s actually a more coherent listen, more elegant if not as arresting, and makes a robust case for reassessing a wonderfully evocative period in French music.

St. Etienne’s Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs have put together a number of excellent releases over the past few years, and the latest is a continental cousin to their 2017 Ace compilation, English Weather. A picture from the time makes an unappetising but evocative cover image for Paris In The Spring which documents the simultaneous cultural revolution, which as Bob Stanley observes, ‘allowed the previously separate worlds of chanson, jazz, pop and film soundtracks to blend into each other’.

Paris In The Spring, attentively compiled by RC columnist Bob Stanley and his Saint Etienne colleague Pete Wiggs, records a momentous era when French pop/rock was driven by circumstance to grow up, and the hitherto strict demarcations between the immediacy of the former and the poetic substance of chanson began to blur and liquefy. The inference is that in the aftermath of May 1968, many performers were stunned int. ot silence, exactly, but a thoughtfulness, a fatalism, a newfound solemnity that framed their output in an autumnal light. Significantly, not one of the compilation’s 23 selections is in a major key – or at least, not for longer than a few bars.
