Patrice Carré and Mario Bua form a complementary tandem, one bringing Mediterranean warmth, the other Parisian lightness. Their repertoire, made up of hit songs inspired by Italian, Greek, Swedish or American music, captures the spirit of an era when French popular song opened enthusiastically to the world. Étoile des Neiges, Arrivederci Roma, Les Trois Cloches, Come Prima — so many titles that marked generations of listeners and remain today classics of French popular song. The cover features a color photograph of the two artists strolling along the booksellers on the quays of the Seine in Paris, in a relaxed, smiling atmosphere. The back is dark purple with the track list in yellow. Period sticker indicating the original sale price. Records and sleeve well preserved for their age.
