"The fine songs of MAURICE VIDALIN who died in 1986,plus some other good ones by PIERRE DELANOE make this another good tribute to GILBERT BÉCAUD.The original BECAUD LPS are still not available on the market(maybe next year)for the cd crowd.Highlights here are LA GROSSE NOCE(a typical VIDALIN song that seems to be improvised)and UN PEU D'AMOUR ET D'AMITIÉ.LA FILLE DE NATHALIE is the follow up to BECAUD's classic NATHALIE ,about a guy who falls in love with a RUSSIAN student who works as a city guide.As late as 1997,BECAUD was still singing this song in concert."
