Musically, the album did not particularly surprise Dutronc although there has again taken relative distances with his usual British-produced étasunienne influences and ultimately his most Gallic album ... But not the most inspired alas . Moreover (is a sign?), For the first time, Lanzmann is not the sole author of the lyrics. Fred, the comic illustrator known for the character of Philemon is credited twice (The bottom of the air is fresh, the donkey is the oven and the beef is cooked) and Dutronc himself wrote those I have brains that is making waves. Standard side collection is skinny, has just does one's Arsene (first generic of Arsene Lupin adventures with Georges Descrières) has to put in their mouths. This is not to say that the selection does not have its beads (rock with The Parasites, the French on the bottom of the air is fresh, etc.), just as they are more watered down than in Previous offerings of the Dandy grinning.
Not a bad album, the album five Dutronc suffers especially from the comparison with the beginning of a virtually faultless. A quality album, so that if he does not exactly reproduce the successes of his predecessors deserves all the more that it looks like it finds here beautifully remastered and with some tasty bonus.
