With "Le Bal des Laze", we are at the heart of his most creative period. Two years earlier, this pop genius, also a studio rat, had delivered the slow track "Love Me Please Love Me", among other hits. Inspiration was clearly far from having left him, judging by the eleven tracks on this album written alone or with Pierre Delanoë, Jean-Loup Dabadie and Franck Gérald: "Le Roi des fourmis", "Rosée d'amour", "Mes Regrets", "Oh ! Louis", "Y'a qu'un cheveu" or even "Âme caline" and "Le Bal des Laze", which, with its slow organ procession, is simply one of the most beautiful songs of the sixties, on par with the most sophisticated Anglo-Saxon pop of the psychedelic era.
