Fire & Water (Ecoutez Vos Murs)

Fire & Water, a collaboration between J. J. Burnel and Dave Greenfield of The Stranglers, is the soundtrack for the film Ecoutez Vos Murs directed by Vincent Coudanne. However, there is no evidence that the film was ever released. It is Greenfield's only solo album before his death in 2020.
