The legendary poet, singer songwriter, Gilles Vigneault, belongs to the generation of chansonniers who assured the Quebec chanson of its own identity while giving it, at the same time, a universal dimension.
This memorable collection of Gilles Vigneault’s recorded works was released by Sony Musique in 1995 and embraces the first ten years of his exceptional career.
The 49 live and studio-produced recordings are drawn from 9 Vigneault albums starting with his first, "Gilles Vigneault", produced in 1962, and closing with 3 songs from his 1969 live album recorded at Theatre de l’Olympia in Paris.
The historical and cultural significance of this compilation recording is reflected in its inclusion as a "Masterworks 2000" selection. |
