BOOK - Renaud, the complete

From his youthful LPs to his last album in 2019, Renaud, without betraying himself, has always seduced the hearts of the French with his beautiful casualness, his suburban tone and his choruses cut with a knife. Poet, rebel and visionary, the singer imposed from the outset his language and his inflammatory formulas, steeped in slang, humor and verlan. He was quickly nicknamed "the Loubard of the song". Before becoming "the Star of the zone", "the irritating Singer", "the wild Chetron", "the Apache of varieties", "the Phoenix" ... In this book, there are more than forty-five years of creation which are analyzed and recounted, disc by disc, from vinyl to CD, in particular with unpublished testimonies from some of his closest collaborators. Rare photos and collector's sleeves will revive nostalgia for the Renaud years. Between success, drifts and flamboyant rebirth. Tatatssin!
