The French Christian Boulé is the same as Daevid
Allen a real specialist of the "glisando" guitar whose sound was the
characteristic stamp of the rock cosmic French of the seventies. For that time Boulé
carried out a series of works in collaboration first with Steve Hillage, guitarist
of Gong, and later next to Cyrille Verdeaux (Clearlight), with who recorded
fundamental disks as "Symphony" and "Visions", among
other, and that they were good him to consolidate an unmistakable musical personality.
In the year 1978 Boulé their first album soloist published,
the one magnifies "Photo Musik" (reissued by Musea), and one year later "Non
Fiction" would take out, its second disk, which contained more varied and more
expansible atmospheres that its predecessor. This work teacher presented, mainly, a
burning cosmic rock deployed from Christian Boulé's expressive guitar, who had for
this company remarkable invited musicians, among those who Tim Blake and Jean-Philippe
Rykiel were to the front of the keyboards...
The result was a very eclectic music where combines the progressive
rock and the pop music with discreet very particular electronic touches.
"Non-Fiction" has just been reissued (the same as "Photo
Musik") for the label Musea with the attaché of two topics engravings in
1999, and that just as it is the habit of the French label, they don't make another thing
that to overcome the quality of the original.
