Each, strictly speaking, was eponymously titled, and each was collected from a series of contemporary four-track, seven-inch, picture-sleeve EPs–pop music’s main format in France, known as le super 45. In them, we see the maturing of one of the decade’s most singular talents–a pop singer with the heart of a chanteuse, a singer-songwriter in an age before such a thing was known, and a style icon who valued privacy and modesty. Remastered from the original tapes, we present the first five Françoise Hardy albums in their original French format, on deluxe LP and CD. By 1965, Françoise Hardy was truly international. She’d hung out with The Beatles and The Stones, played high-profile shows in London, established a working relationship with British producer Charles Blackwell, and appeared in the film What’s New Pussycat? She was also a fashion icon seen in the pages of Marie Claire and Vogue and on the cover of Elle, and her first US album was issued that year. In France, Hardy was to release album number four, the second album to be recorded in London, where her celebrity was rapidly growing–at odds with her natural shyness. “In London, it was the first time I’d been made to think I had a certain charm or charisma,” she says now. “Thanks to the time in England, I became aware I could be seductive.” L’Amitié, with its evocative, close-up album cover and late-night sound, is the result. Produced by Jacques Wolfsohn alongside arranger Charles Blackwell, the sessions were notable for some distracting visitors. “Mick Jagger was there a few times with various entourages of his at Pye [Studios],” recalls Blackwell. “There was a long seat in front of the mixing desk where they used to sit.” Hardy was, however, not the epitome of the swinging ‘60s idyll; she was an intellectual, into yoga and Buddhism and astrology, and she still noted French chanson singers George Brassens and Jacques Brel as favorites alongside Elvis, Dionne Warwick, and The Rolling Stones. Despite her new links to the world of fashion, the tentative steps into film, the growing international awareness, and the attention she brought sheerly through her presence, music remained Françoise’s focus, and her fourth album more than demonstrated this. A mix of Hardy’s own songs, Blackwell’s songs, and tracks from writers including Jean-Max Rivière and Gérard Bourgeois (who wrote the title track), the sound focused on stirring, heavy pop, not least in the yearning “L’Amitié.” “I’m still very proud of ‘L’Amitié,’” says Françoise, who’s wont to undervalue her own work. “The French lyrics are so very moving.” Artist Francoise Hardy Genre Rock And Pop Label Future Days Recordings Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings 1 Ce Petit Cœur 2 Il Se Fait Tard 3 Tout Ce Qu'on M’A Dit 4 L'Amitié 5 En T'Attendant 6 Je T'Aime7 Non Ce N'est Pas Un Rêve 8 Quel Mal Y A-T-II À Ça? 9 Tu Peux Bien 10 Le Temps Des Souvenirs 11 Je Pensais 12 Dis Lui Non Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Francoise Hardy and more from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View Francoise Hardy Tous Les Garcons Et Les Filles Rock And Pop | Future Days Recordings | 180g, 1LP Released 29th January 2016 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Francoise Hardy Tous Les Garcons Et Les Filles £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Future Days Recordings SKU: FDR614LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 29th January 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Francoise Hardy ‘Mon Amie La Rose’ Rock And Pop | Future Days Recordings | 180g, 1LP Released 29th January 2016 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Francoise Hardy ‘Mon Amie La Rose’ £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Future Days Recordings SKU: FDR616LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 29th January 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Francoise Hardy ‘La Maison Ou J’ai Grandi’ Rock And Pop | Future Days Recordings | 180g, 1LP Released 29th January 2016 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Francoise Hardy ‘La Maison Ou J’ai Grandi’ £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Future Days Recordings SKU: FDR618LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 29th January 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Elvis Presley Moody Blue – 40th Anniversary Rock And Pop | Sony Music | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th November 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Elvis Presley Moody Blue – 40th Anniversary £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Sony Music SKU: 88985446191 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 20th November 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Beth Orton Weather Alive Rock And Pop | Partisan Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 23rd September 2022 £20.00 -
