An interesting album of French music. The singer is from France and has been around for a long time. Some songs are better than others. I would recommend this album as an easy listening record. It's something you can relax to in the evening.

beautiful love songs for his 'stepmother' Paris, ("Mes prčnoms de Paris") being ompletely

everybody know that for French people choices made in the name of love are the real essence of anything!
I could also tell you that the history of this artist was too much a brief one, as a crab carried him off too soon, but I should also tell you that he
knew how to speak about his illness and his near death with his usual, natural ironic sweetness and grace, of course mixed with a pinch of healthy malice.
