Discover a selection of the most iconic French albums of their era.
Bernard Lavilliers - Nuit d'amour - 1981: The 8th album on which the artist explores avenues that would lead him to reggae and a still powerful rock, but whose production was decidedly avant-garde for its time.
Gerald De Palmas - Marcher dans le sable - 2000: Surrounded by French Pop heavyweights like Jean Jacques Goldman and Calogero, he crafted the album that would solidify his position as one of the most important singer-songwriters of his generation. Find hits like 'Regarde-moi Bien En Face', 'Une Seule Vie', and the now classic 'J’en Rêve Encore'.
Eddy Mitchell - Rio Grande - 1993: The last "Sacred Monster" of the French scene, Eddy Mitchell. Rio Grande is his 28th studio album and continues to pay homage to the American influences that have accompanied the artist throughout his career.

Maxime Le Forestier - Mon Frère - 1972: Maxime Le Forestier's 1st opus when the young singer-songwriter was only 23 years old. Success quickly followed, and the tracks 'Mon Frère', 'Parachutiste' and especially 'San Francisco' would become cult to the point of embodying an entire generation.
