Le Pop 3
LP & CD / 12 tracks
Nach dem letztjährigen Erfolg von "Le Pop En Duo" nun
der brandneue
Sampler, der die wichtigsten, schönsten und innovativsten aktuellen
Songs der "Nouvelle Scène Française" vorstellt.
"Le Pop 3" ist eine Dokumentation der Breite und Stärke
der neuen Chanson-Szene in Frankreich, dort längst integraler
Bestandteil des musikalischen Alltags geworden ist. Auf "Le Pop
3" gibt es wieder viele neue Namen zu entdecken. Mit zwei Ausnahmen
sind alle Stücke bisher in Deutschland unveröffentlicht,
