Clips :
1969 ... a first title which already shows the full potential of the artist. Of course, there is still work to be done but what is looming on the horizon is already shaping up to be super ...
1969...at least what is looming in about ten years because for the big take-off it will not be for right away. So let's be a little patient...
1978...we find him 9 years later, transformed to say the least. The evolution of style and sound is impressive and necessarily augurs very well for the rest of the events...
1979...then comes THIS title ! An enormous title that will bring the artist One Shot into the musical legend of this end of the 20th century. He simply signs here one of the biggest Dance hits of the decade, just that. MAS-TER-FUL !
1979 ... an astonishing and so British sequel. Of course, this title will not be able to equal the colossal success of the previous one, but it has the merit of existing and of being of a certain quality
1980 ... a passage to the following decade which is done without much change of musical orientation. There are even some influences that made the success of Pop Muzik. The result will still be slightly different ...
1980 ... this time, however, the change in tone is obvious. And unfortunately, it's not necessarily going in the right direction ...
1981 ... the artist has gone into a 'wacky' side which is struggling to find a sound balance worthy of the name. It is borderline experimental and is even limited out of play ...
1982 ... well, it's not really getting better. Even if the influences this time are no longer Celtic but Slavic, that does not change the problem much ...
1982... it's already a little better with this new opus. But the delay with the competition is now too great and the artist will never return to the race...
1982...certainly he will never return to the front of the pack but what he offers in this year 1982 is not devoid of interest, it is clear...
1982...he was able to find a level of inspiration worthy of the name, but that was not enough. He will therefore have to settle for places of honor as they say...
1982... he will even try the adventure with 2 and not with anyone. Despite the addition of these 2 certain talents, success will not be there again...
1983... he will have really missed very little for him to be able to catch up with the leading pack. But his dropout at the beginning of the decade will have really penalized him to the highest degree...
1984...here he arrived in Afro-Caribbean mode. An astonishing musical reorientation on his part but concerning him everything is possible so we are no longer surprised by anything...
2003...while we could imagine that the previous title had been the last of his career, here he reappears 19 years later in an unexpected way to say the least. Who would've believed that possible...?
2003...a return which will not allow him to reverse the course of time but which at least has the merit of showing that he still exists. It's already that...
2003... a return where he is far from being ridiculous, it is clear. There is quality in what he offers even if all this will not bring him more than that...
2013...we will lose sight of him again for almost 10 years and here he is back in...instrumental mode. Surprising strategy that will only delight the basic fans necessarily...
2013...even in the purely instrumental domain, he is not that ridiculous. It's a good attempt on his part to vary the pleasures but it will produce little effect once again...
2014...back in sung mode the following year. He clings on by all means and tells himself that in music, nothing is ever finished, so might as well try everything for everything...
2018...new 4-year air hole and here he is back again at the end of the 2010 decade. He will go to the end of the adventure, regardless of whether he is successful or not...
2021... and here he is starting his 7th decade of career, who would have thought that possible when he started his career in...1969 ?! Not many people, that's for sure...
2022...impossible to stop him at this stage ! Like many old glories of the 80s, the 2020s is the decade of renewal, or so we hope...
2022 ... so we imagine that this title will not be the last because we now know, with him, nothing is ever over. To be continued...
2023...
