Details: Product Description The Final Recordings from the Late French Singer and Songwriter. Amazon.ca Gilbert Bécaud, simply. Though the artist is gone, his work lives on with this posthumous tribute. Gaya Bécaud wished to continue what her father had begun; despite being weakened, he had the strength necessary to finish recording one of the tracks ("Le Cap") from this eponymous opus, which includes new songs as well as new versions. Notably those that "Monsieur 100,000 Volts" had written with Louis Amade ("Viens nous aider") and Serge Lama ("Le Train d'amour"). In this final album, the artist shares his fears, as in the moving "Je partirai," but also his messages of hope ("On marche," "Faut vivre un peu") and his outbursts ("Bravo"). And the song "Au Revoir (Adieu l'ami)" takes on a particularly special resonance. Devoted fans and others alike will undoubtedly appreciate this highly anticipated record. --Valérie Dupouy
