ALAIN SOUCHONLUX, CALME ET VOLUPTES
(COLLECTION 1974-2008)
Widely considered the godfather of contemporary French pop, singer/songwriter Alain Souchon captured the precarious masculinity of postmodern man with uncommon tenderness and whimsy. Often working in partnership with composer Laurent Voulzy, his music explored themes both personal and political with poetic grace.
You won't find all of Souchon's singles in this compilation covering his 12 studio albums. Some of them weren't good enough to be included here. On the other hand, you'll have songs that are not usually featured in the man's official compilations but deserve their place here. Get a taste of one France's most influential and acclaimed artists, one that is still very popular among people of all ages.
