Details: Product Description Forester, Louise Amazon.ca Revisiting one's own repertoire can be a perilous undertaking. Louise Forestier takes up the challenge with flying colors and avoids, in Lights, the trap of nostalgia. Much more than a compilation, the album is a refreshing reinterpretation of the greatest hits of this singer-songwriter (and sometimes composer) among the most important of Quebec song. As a bonus, three new compositions: “Thank you”, “Lumières” and “Ah les mots les mots!” Recorded with an impressive line-up of musicians (Jean-François Groulx, Dan Thouin, Normand Guilbault, Éloi Painchaud, among others), Lumières is a brilliant retrospective of Forestier's 35-year career. If, from the first bars of “California”, we recognize the psychedelic atmospheres of Quebec rock of the 70s, the sequel brings us back to the 2000s, gently, in a resolutely contemporary journey. We feel here the path traveled by this free and whole artist, and the serene madness of a woman in full possession of her faculties. --Pascale Millot
