Title: French rock at its best
Review: This is rock'n roll like you've never heard before! Try to imagine John Fogerty singing in French and you will have an idea of what this album sounds like. It is no accident that Hallyday covers John Fogerty's "Fortunate son" and Joe Cocker's "Delta Lady". The guy obviously knows his classics. Recorded in 1971 at Olympic Studo in London, this superb album was produced by Chris Kimsey, the official Rolling Stones producer of the time and it features, Bobby Keyes on Sax, Gary Wright on Keyboards and Mick Jones and Jerry Donahue on lead guitar. The lyrics were written by the great French writer Philippe Labro and the songs include two great Hallyday-penned and Hallyday-produced accoustic numbers, "L'autre moitie" and "Tant qu'il y aura des trains" as well as a great stonesy number entitled "Oh ma jolie Sarah". This album is as good as anything produced at the time on this side of the Atlantic. Don't miss it!
