Description
Yves Cloutier & Richard Toupin
" Yves et Toup "
Trans-World International T1-6024, 1975 Stereo (Canada)
Scarce undiscovered gem....pressed locally in very small numbers with only limited distribution. The short-lived Richard Toupin & Yves Cloutier collaboration resulted in only one obscure long play....this Xian folk-rock stunner….. a blend of smooth vocal harmonies, haunting acoustic guitars, flutes, & synths....all with great interplay.....swirling progressive arrangements and spacey psych-tinged vibes.
Sometines reminiscent of Harmonium's debut, but with a vibe very similar to the two progressive-folk gems recorded by the obscure Quebec bands Ajour and especially Shawi, which were both released around the same time (French lyrics, but with lots of long instrumental passages).
a "Dreamy artistic progressive folk masterpiece" .
Tracks/Pistes:
Emilie d'amour
Les trois frères
Pélerinage
Mon vrai destin
La moisson (Listen: HERE)
Le chemin, la vérité, la vie
Il était une fois
La rose et la souffle
Isabeau
Merci Seigneur
Très rare microsillon de la francophonie folk-rock acoustique (progressive) chrétienne.
C’est après avoir travaillé comme comédien et musicien à La Roulotte du Service des Parcs de Montréal ainsi qu’au Théâtre du Nouveau Monde que Richard Toupin est engagé comme bassiste et choriste derrière Robert Charlebois pour la grande tournée du Québec, la production d’un disque et des prestations en Europe. Après quelques expériences avec d’autres artistes québécois, il entreprend une carrière en duo avec Yves Cloutier. Résultat ! ....ce merveilleux bijou…..un folk acoustique progressif de toute beauté, et délicieux à l’écoute.
