A prize for the brilliant De Palmas!

I had to let go one day inadvertently I liked Gérald De Palmas (which is true) and presto! it was enough for someone to offer me his latest album for my birthday! And it is true that in the kind electric variety, De Palmas is perhaps the very best in France. This guy loves guitars and it shows! Moreover, it has a lot of listening to rock in his youth as found on his albums, and particularly this one, that feel of compo classic rock of the 70s (Free, Bad Co, Cactus ...) And then I like her voice ...

The 16 titles of which 15 personal compositions enchainent well without downtime, some sung in French, others in English, and sometimes both at the same time. Among the strong titles include "I remember everything" or "Forget your name" which were particularly successful. The 16th song "Jolene", sung in duet with Elisa Jo, is a cover of Dolly Parton, the same one that was interpreted there not so long ago by the White Stripes. A nice version, but that of Jack White is still better. That said there is still another side to the coin. The production is a little too polished, too radio, it lacks teeth, but this is also why it remains the variety and not rock. It is also regrettable that De Palmas write a little always the same songs still using some of the same recipes over her albums This is often successful, but we can not help but say that this is the heard . Finally, it sometimes flirts dangerously with the stereotype of the singer babes. Be careful not to become a kind of Roch Voisine in French!

A good disk (almost) French as'd like to hear more often!
