WILLIAM SHELLER


WILLIAM SHELLER
LUX AETERNA/
LES PECHES DE JEUNESSE (1972)

REMASTER
320 KBPS

This is Sheller's debut album and it's quite atypical too. While his following works will mostly consist into a mix of pop, classical, chanson and rock this is a pop-oriented mass he wrote for a friends wedding hereby demonstrating (from the start!) his classical training and composing abilities. It's quite an astonishing work of art both those wanting something pop (in the 60s/70s sense of the word) and classical will enjoy.
The bonuses displayed here are a whole other thing. Those are the beginings of the man's work. It sometimes is clumsy but still enjoyable. Mostly pop songs, these are the first step of a true artist on the way to perfection.
Together, these two works do not really fit together and demand to be listened separately. Other than that, you just cannot not enjoy it.
