Details: Product Description Piche, Paul Amazon.ca Paul Piché had gone on a journey deep within himself, with his words, his notebook and his pen as his only baggage. The backpacker returned with a ninth album, Le Voyage, which retraces his quest for the absolute. Calm, contemplative and humble, the artist no longer chants. "I write at my height / I become who I am / I see life at my height", he sings softly, in his warm voice. His nine songs certainly evoke his personal concerns, but his speech is not devoid of social criticism. If the poetic verve of Paul Piché remains, the musical arrangements have evolved. His old traveling companions – Rick Haworth on guitars, Claude Castonguay on keyboards and composition, and Pierre Duchesne on bass and production – nevertheless followed him on this journey where he sometimes borrows from Latin rhythms (success " Don't do that"), sometimes with electronic sounds ("Bad Calculation"). By breaking with his traditional airs after having abandoned the creative scene for six years, and by recording, in addition, a song of nearly nine minutes (the title track), Paul Piché was taking a risk. Le Voyage, a gold record, was ultimately a great risk. --Marie-Eve Cousineau
