5.0 out of 5 stars possibly the mose authentic french music around, October 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Hors-Saison-New 1999 (Audio CD)

Hors-Saison is a colorful medley of authentic French blues. Cabrel is one of the most famous French musicians around. Every emotion comes out in this album. Hors Saison is a sweet mellow and sad song. La Belle Debbie is a rythmic danceable tune. Cent Ans De Plus is an original song about slavery. The CD is a must buy for all french-enthusiastics. It even comes with a case\book with the words to the songs and pictures. of course, the words and tunes are in french, so it's good to have some background in the language.

I love Francis Cabrel and this album is no exception! ~ His wonderful voice and beautiful music style make this album pure joy! ~ I recommend Francis Cabrel whether you speak French or not...if you like Gordon Lightfoot, James Taylor, Eric Clapton.... and the words are always included (in French of course) so you can attempt to sing along! ~ :) Ecoutez-vous! ~ Jody Secker

I bought this looking for some French music to help me learn the language. I LOVE this CD. Track 9 is especially good, but the whole CD is enjoyable. Not one bad track on the CD. The style kind of reminds me of Chris Isaak with a little Billy Joel mixed in. Even if you don't know the language, this is a beautiful CD, including it's packaging which opens like a book, with the lyrics written inside and the last page a sleeve containing the beautiful music. Enjoy!
