French

The history of French TV is complex, filled with lineup changes, missed opportunities, delays, and disillusions. And yet, a growing body of work testifies to one man's sagacity and stubbornness. In the middle of French TV's chamber of 32 revolving doors stands bassist/composer Mike Sary. Blending elements of prog, fusion, cartoon music, and Rock-in-Opposition, the music of his group can be simultaneously hilarious and highly challenging, making it one of the most original American prog rock outfits.

For the 2001 CD The Case Against Art, French TV consisted mostly of Sary, keyboardist Warren Dale (of TRAP), and drummer Chris Vincent, with many past and new friends sitting in.

Everyone knows a few French phrases, but au revoir and bonjour can only get one so far. "Learn French in a Hurry" is the perfect pocket language primer for a student traveling abroad to a French-speaking nation, a professional doing business in Paris, or someone who just wants to lay a foundation for learning the beautiful French language…
