Details: Product Description France. Amazon.ca After spending the previous year getting France dancing to the sound of "Marcia baila," Les Rita Mitsouko returned in 1986 with The No Comprendo, one of their best albums to date and one of their most critically acclaimed. Produced by Tony Visconti, who had worked for Bowie in the 70s, this was a true hit-making machine created by Fred Chichin and Catherine Ringer. It is impossible to resist "Andy," a slice of baroque pop—bouncy and indescribable—that makes you want to say "yes," or the epileptic "C'est comme ça," on which Ringer plays the zany diva. It is also difficult not to have memorized the lyrics to "Histoires d'A," a series of bittersweet sentimental micro-catastrophes delivered over an infectious rhythm. Les Rita innovated, creating a new genre of energetic pop, full of improbable melodies and poetic-zany lyrics, and they were so creative that they remain unique and inimitable. --Isabelle Chelley
