Album Description2008 three CD set. The music that was heard on the boulevards of the French capital in the period from the 1920s to the 1950s evokes a special atmosphere impossible to reproduce today. It was an intimate scene, and for every Chevalier or Piaf there were a dozen less well known yet enormously talented boulevardiers whose work awaits your discovery. Here we present a glorious, wide-ranging selection of the capital's favorites from the golden age of chanson. Features 64 tracks from the likes of Piaf and Chevalier plus Yves Montad, Charles Trenet, Corinne Lesage and many others. Introducing.
