With his 7th album, Alain Souchon gets closer to rock than he ever did before. The arrangements of Michel Coeuriot perfectly fit the sensitive, elegant songwriting of Souchon. As usually, his friend Laurent Voulzy wrote a few musics in here like, for example, "J'veux du Cuir", one of the album's winner. Other highlights include the cinematic "La Ballade de Jim", the Loui Chedid co-written "Vous êtes lents" the gorgeous "Portbail" or the title track, "C'est Comme Vous Voulez" but all the songs are actually quite good.
While he was already well known and successful with his previous works, this album surely defined What Souchon was to become: a leading figure that ultimately influenced the new chanson scene which appeared in the 90s. A must try.
