L’Album De Sa Vie

A new 3CD compilation, brings together the major titles from Alain Bashung from the beginnings in the 80s through around forty titles that have left their mark on French music. The last CD, dedicated to the numerous covers with which Bashung has punctuated his career, also shows the extent of the inspiration (from Léo Ferré to Manset, from Elvis to Leonard Cohen) which has influenced his unique work. The new anthology also features a very special unpublished piece, On n’a pas l’air…, which dates from 1981 and which was unearthed and mixed forty years later by Mitch Olivier, the sound engineer of the sessions at the time.
