HIS FIRST ALBUM (1968) WAS AN INSTANT SUCCESS IN FRANCE. IT MADE HIM A STAR. I WAS ALREADY A FAN! 33 YEARS LATER HE IS STIL AS GOOD, AS ORIGINAL, AS CHARMING AND INTENSE. THIS ALBUM HAS IT ALL: THE FIRST SONGS:(LA CAVALERIE/IVANOVITCH/LA CALIFORNIE),
THE "ROMANTIC" JULIEN:( MA PREFERENCE/THIS MELODY/FAIS MOI UNE PLACE), PASSINATE:(JALOUX), OUTRADGED:(L'ASSASSIN). IT'S IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO FEEL ENERGETIC LISSENING TO "MACUMBA/QUAND JE JOUE/SI ON CHANTAIT".
JULIEN WRITES MOST OF THE MUSIC, RODA-GIL WROTE THE LYRICS FOR 13 SONGS. LISSEN WITH ATTENTION TO DABADIE'S LYRICS: THAT MAN KNOWS A LOT ABOUT LOVE!
GREAT COPULATION ALBUM. GREAT AS ALL JULIEN CLERC ALBUMS.
TAKE FRENCH LESSONS IF YOU HAVE TO! IT'S WORTH IT!

When i was a teenager girls were crazy about him, and now that he reached 50 they still like him.But don't get me wrong, JULIEN CLERC is a good singer with a distintive style that only belongs to him.His most prolific lyric writer ETIENNE RODA-GIL is the co-star of the album here along with JEAN-LOUP DABADIE. The two of them wrote great songs for him and the most surprizing is L'ASSASSIN ASSASSINE, because you do not expect a song like this from JULIEN CLERC. You can buy that one with eyes close ,and enjoy it with your wife or girlfriend.Who knows what may happen next!
