This CD had a huge impact on my collection. I was always a huge fan of the American 'Golden Songbook' (Rodgers, Berlin, Gershwin) and this was my introduction to what was happening in France with the same kind of music. Fabulous songs and interpreters of great character.

I have gone on to purchase collections of Trenet, Sablon and Mireille....there's no end in sight!

You will love this album

if you like french music, and even if you dont, you should try out this disc. it is beautiful! you know the song"beyond the sea" by bobby darrin? of course you do! and find here the original french mega success hit "la mer", from which it originated. how about the latin favorite "isle of capri"? here is the french version, also beautiful "c'est a capri." or how about "the three bells?" hear edith piaf's original version "les trois cloches". this is the perfect disc to put on at night and put yourself to dream with

This is the best CD ever made. It has a different beat than most music. It has a unique style that I have never heard before. I highly recommend it. It should apeal to all people interested in techno music.
