Yves Vessière - D'une chanson à l'autre ... (Rare 1979 French Folk Singer-Songwriter LP on Kiosque d'Orphée)

 

 

Rare and excellent French Singer-Songwriter LP released in 1979 on Kiosque d'Orphée.

 

Né et vivant à Montluçon (Allier), Yves Vessière écrit des chansons (paroles et musiques) depuis les années 70/80. « Dans les chansons qu'Yves Vessière écrit et chante, comme dans les textes qu'il met en musique, il y a, dit l'écrivain Jean Anglade, un accord parfait entre les paroles, la musique, l'interprétation. » Et celui-ci d'ajouter : « J'aime la variété de l'inspiration qui passe de l'humour à la poésie, de la gravité à la tendresse ».
