Christian Escoude combines elements of gypsy jazz, bop, and a contemporary flavor during these 1989 sessions that also include fellow guitarists Paul Challin Ferret, Jimmy Gourley, Frederic Sylvestre, accordion player Marcel Azzla, cellist Vincent Courtois, bassist Alby Cullaz, and either Billy Hart or Philippe Combelle on drums.

L'histoire est un récit écrit par lequel des hommes et des femmes (les historiens et historiennes) s'efforcent de faire connaître les temps révolus. …
