Title: Sarbacane / Communique
Post by: JF on January 02, 2016, 11:29:52 PM
have you ever noticed a small similarty between the riff from "Sarbacane" (Francis Cabrel, french singer, 1989) and the one from Communique ?

Communique is in A and slower, while Sarbacane is in B, but played with a capo in A shape, and a bit faster

Of course the Cabrel riff is very common, as a typic A shuffle, and can be found in many folk-rock american songs, but every time I hear it, I think to Communique which is by far more subtle and more complex, but in the same vein imho

Yes JF I have always wondered why I loved Sabarcane so much,  now you gave me the answer!!! It is one of my favourite song of Francis Cabrel!! I saw him on stage couple of years ago. It was also one my dream... But JJ Goldman also got very much inspired by MK!!

I think that this is actually  Michael Jones who is an heavy DS fan, and seen several times attending  MK french concerts.

Great to know that Michael Jones is a Fan of DS. Thanks  for this info as well. I like him also as a  Musician. Too bad that his solo career doesn't work so well. He made an album and a Tour 2 years ago!! People always see him as the guitarist of JJG!!!
