"y a deja beaucoup des disques-compacts de Murat, et les tous ont leurs delices; mais celui-ci, qui s'est lance' l'annee derniere, est le meilleur. Blues profondes, ritournelles ecorches de guitar, un bon basse accompagnant, et la voix inoubliable de Murat -- dure, pleine d'emotion, moitie Gainsbourg, moitie Bryan Ferry, et la plupart la sienne seul. Faut l'acheter tout d'suite!"

Brilliant French Rock album . Perfect intro for Americans!

"I was first introduced to Jean-Louis Murat on the Leonard Cohen tribute album "I'm Your Fan". I've since become a huge fan of Murat and other French singers. "Le Moujik et Sa Femme" is the perfect introduction to French Rock for Americans. The songs are heavily acoustic with a nice mix of jazz and blues. The arrangements conjure up comparisons to Neil Young, Chris Whitley and other alternative, folky rock singers. Murat's voice has a sensual quality to it that make the vocals interesting even if you can't understand a word."
