NUMBER 7 WITH A NEW RECORD COMPANY

(5 out of 5 stars)
"After 6 LPS with POLYDOR,RENAUD signed with VIRGIN and the first release became one of the biggest seller of his career.MISS MAGGIE became a hit and even had an ENGLISH version.The whole album is a catalogue of his familiar themes with a new maturity,probably because he became the father of a girl a few years before.For those who don't know this FRENCH folksinger and are allergic to greatest hits package,MISTRAL GAGNANT is the original cd to buy if you want only one.RENAUD's music is a cross between DYLAN and the MONTMARTRE populist songs of early twentieth century."
