    Ηer albums with Areski are considered as solo. cause she is the main driver of everything going on the process. all of them are edgy and genuinely experimental..If you wanna listen exclusively only her voice, the most experimental one (maybe one of the most..) is the one released in 1972. it was untitled. and therefore it's only her name... Brigitte Fontaine.. its a true masterpiece.. like an experimental film.. Try this one.. .

    WHAT THE PARADISE is La Caravane featuring Grace Jones? OMG, I'm really FUCKIN' EXCITED listening this music over and over again. That's, absolutely, the best duet that Brigitte and Grace has ever made (and, maybe, ever do something like this). It's a masterpiece! The voices of Grace and Brigitte combine to form an absolutely stupendous combination! I LOVE duets with both, and I hope they stay together recording more tracks! ♥
