About Robert Lelièvre

Robert Lelièvre was a French singer, songwriter and guitar player. He is best remembered as a member of the folk rock trio Cy, Maia & Robert, and for fronting the Danish progressive rock band Pan. Their eponymous debut album is considered amongst the best in the history of Danish rock music. Cy, Maia & Robert's first release was an album entitled On the Scene in 1966. Another critical success in Denmark, the reputation of Out of Our Times reached England, and the trio was invited to London to re-record "I'm on My Way" as a "business card" to bigger markets. While still in Cy, Maia & Robert, Lelièvre and Nicklin accompanied Scottish folk singer Alex Campbell on the live album Alex Campbell at the Tivoli Gardens, recorded in 1967 at Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen.
