Concert à Tokyo

Description

The year 1977 marks a turning point in Yves Simon’s life and career. He completes a five-year run of flawless success that established him as an essential artist of the new French scene. It was during this year that he would write the biggest hit of his career, "Diabolo Menthe," the soundtrack to Diane Kurys’s film, a huge popular success. He also kept up a frantic pace of concerts in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Canada, and Japan. Yves Simon decided to take a break from an already very rich but exhausting career. Without leaving music, he decided to leave the stage. This live record, recorded in Tokyo, is therefore a document featuring the tracks: "Raconte toi", "Manhattan", "Les héros de Barbès", "Le joueur d'accordéon" and the essential "Au pays des merveilles de Juliet".
