I FLUNKED French (and German and Spanish - and then we found out I was somewhat dyslexic with foreign languages) Anyway.... here it is from web translation service (some grammar not perfect, but hey the JIST of it is THERE!): Thanks Mondony for the headsup! - -- Bev Okin-Larkin ANNICK CLARISSE High choruses *She is on the point of leaving in round to the United States and Japan, with Basia, high-speed motorboat of pop jazz of the Eighties. New departure in its career of chorus-singer, after his passage successful with the concert of Linzy Bacbotte, Saturday.* Hardly a wink with the general public. Annick Clarisse thinks already of elsewhere. Accustomed to the cabarets, in front of the customers selects of Saint-Giran and Touessrok, she sees herself already in the United States and Japan. Saturday, Annick Clarisse was on scene with Pailles, for an energetic duet all in accessory glances and fingers intertwined with Linzy Bacbotte. On the album of Linzy, I made the choruses on Another chance, the song which we interpreted. The last time that Annick Clarisse is ridden on scene - except cabaret with the hotel - it was 17 years old. She still remembers that with her Veronique binocular - because at the Clarisse, the song is a business of sisters - they had interpreted, on the scene the theatre Plaza with Rose-Hill, a title of the Bananarama group. More than twenty years later, it is in its living room with the glazed roof, and the red cushions, that Annick Clarisse tells without hesitation, without coquettery its 40 years. While managing Zoe calmly, her daughter of three years and Lilo, the adorable bitch, it speaks about the excitation to leave, from here January-February, in round with Basia, singer of pop jazz, in vogue in the Eighties, for her come-back in the United States and Japan. Organization that requires. In particular of the mother-in-law, who is in France, and that it would have to be prevented, if From his/her husband, who often travels, and which, will try not to leave. Of its jobs. The day, as chief of a small company of dulled glass, Recto Back, which it manages at it, in its residence even. The night, as singer of cabaret, three to four times the week, between Saint-Giran and Touessrok. But especially of its house, that it will make us visit, of the room of billiards, that it is necessary to imagine. With its room to be slept and that of the children. To finish by its very favorite, which decided it to buy this house curepipienne: the river which runs just behind. Its steps stick to the paving stones which border the river. There one will be able to make barbecues. Space is not arranged yet, but Annick Clarisse sees itself there already. She worries about not have still found of gardener. We shows while sighing the three plastic bags, witnesses of its efforts to collect the sheets which make carpet at the edge of the river. One wonders how Annick Clarisse will remain two months far from the river. She says frankly, That pays well, it is a proposal which I could not refuse. On what its will spend seal? Almost without surprise, it D lays: There are so much things to make in the house. The walls are still white, it does not have there curtains. Nothing for it. It will be necessary to insist before it releases. Often, when I find a clothing sympathetic, there exists only in small size. I am not any more twenty years old, I do not have any more the size of an young girl. At least over there, I could buy tons of shoes and clothing to me. One believes it only in half. Its enthusiasm for this nearest departure is, him, quite real. Meeting again, not that with an employer, but with a friend. The meeting with Basia - singer of pop jazz of Polish origin, which was made known towards end of the year 80, in 1994. We are two years there after the chapter Erasure, group pop of the Eighties. /And a day, a call of the assistant was received/ /of Basia de Londres.C' was unthinkable, incredible that somebody/ /to 10.000 km calls us for a round./ Eleven years separate the first from the second round with Basia. However, the bond did not break. We became friendly, smiles Annick Clarisse. At the point where for Christmas, for example, as Basia likes the cakes peppers and the faratas, one sent to him a typical parcel of food products of Maurice. In return, Annick and her small family receive CD. But how was made the meeting with Basia? Us here vis-a-vis a case of good person at the good place. That of Dave Bascombe, sound engineer which worked on one of the albums of Erasure, pop duet in vogue at the end of the Eighties. Basia, which knows it, and which at the same time, seeks chorus-singers requires council of him. He, which has under the eyes of the images of the Clarisse sisters, proposes to him. And a day, one received a call of the assistant of Basia of London. It was unthinkable, incredible that somebody to 10.000 km calls us for a round, is still astonished Annick Clarisse. All the more, that the name of Basia is still unknown for him. When I heard Basia, that made me think of Amitabh Bachchan. The surprise passed, the chorus-singers send CV, and recordings of their voice to him. The easy way was to sing one of its songs. With by the way, the sisters choose Baby you' Re mines. Basia will say yes. Before repeating itself one decade later. In 2005, when Matt Bianco, the group whose Basia was member before launching out in solo, is reformed. New telephone call, new seal. New adventure for the singer who started towards sept-huit years. I remember that with Veronique, one put oneself where one passed by again clothing. There is had racks full with books. It was our public. In January, a new page will be turned. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2008 09:35:10 -0500 From: "Kitty Rosman" Subject: RE: Some news about the tour I sure hope they get a good opening performer for this upcoming tour.
