Monsieur Cote 1996 Hi8 Recording Copy Review
About
This early live version of Monsieur Cote was recorded with a Hi-8 Camera under very low light and is the only copy available. Reviewing version to eliminate some images, add historical images and other images out of my archives to take in account current issues affecting native people today. God bless you all as we carry the memories of our past and our ancestors into this brave new world. Early edit, recordings of my music, plus desktop editing with my old Amiga Commodore. B4 digital film so to speak. Images are varied. Voice Over of Jenny Jacks speaks about Oka at one of two Vigilant Performances produced by Gunargie O'Sullivan and myself August/Sept 1990 in Vancouver. We then hear a late Tom Goodtrack digital recording from a cassette from a wax cylinder disc, leading into an early version of Monsieur Cote recorded October 1996 with Glen Gould: Guitar, Laila Hansen: background vocals/rainstick, Nanu of Greenland (drum) Eric Gray shakers, and myself on guitar and vocals. Some montage images from Hull, Ottawa, Oka, Montreal, Neo-Nativist rehearsals at Pitt Gallery, Vancouver. Plus image from recent travels , postings and our Mother Earth.
