Francoise Hardy | Francoise Hardy (180 Gram Vinyl, Deluxe Gatefold Edition) [Import] | Vinyl

The original Yeh-Yeh Girl, Fran?oise Hardy's singing career began with a brilliant self-titled debut in 1962. The album encapsulated Hardy's coy, dreamlike, and beautifully melancholic sonic persona with a collection of 11 mostly original songs. The album featured a few hits, including the particularly notable "Tous les Gar?ons et les Filles," which sold millions as a single. This repackaging of the original album also includes Canta per Voi in Italiano, an album issued shortly after the debut with some of its songs and additional numbers re-recorded in Italian. While the original album is a classic of French pop, '60s AM magic, and of course a forerunner of the yeh-yeh (aka y?-y?) sound, the additional tracks in Italian are a sweet counterpart. ~ Fred Thomas
