BOOK - Goldman - The complete

Regularly voted favorite personality of the French, Jean-Jacques Goldman is much more than an essential singer-songwriter of French song.   Isn’t he a bit of “family” to each of us?   With 9 studio albums to his credit and 156 tracks written or composed for others (Johnny Hallyday, Céline Dion, Florent Pagny, Patrick Fiori, Patricia Kaas, Marc Lavoine...),and especially for humanitarian causes (mainly Les Restos du coeur), the singer with legendary discretion and simplicity has infused his sensitivity, his revolts and his vision of the world into the collective imagination for nearly 35 years.   From his beginnings in the Montrouge gospel choir then within the Taï Phong group to his latest contributions for the Enfoirés, it is this formidable Goldman epic, electric and abundant, that Daniel Pantchenko retraces in detail and disc by disc, at with the help of testimonies from the artist and his professional entourage.
