CHARLELIE COUTUREPOCHETTE SURPRISE (1981)
320 KBPS
First artist to ever sign to the legendary Island label, CharlElie Couture records his third album in France before flying to Nassau to mix it. That tell you how much the record company believed in his potential considering he was not yet the famous artist we know today.
"Pochette Surprise" doesn't mark a great chance of pace for CharlElie but confirms and expends his peculiar mix of poetic chanson and rock. He sings about the doubts and little pains of everyday life like no else affirming himself as a truly unique artist. His nasal and low voice inhabits the songs perfectly and you can tell the man has a universe of his own that it's only willing to develop.
We now know it did and "Pochette Surprise" maybe was the first album in which we were certain a long and fruitful career was ahead of him.

merci pour cet album qui pour moi reste le meilleur de Charlelie, avec poemes rock bien sur.
Merci encore et longue vie a ton blog
J'approuve Anonymous : c'est du bon CharlÉlie et une opportunité vraiment agréable de le rencontrer ici. Merci, merci de représenter de tels artistes.
(Et vraiment, bravo pour tes sélections tantôt pointues, tantôt grand public : je découvre les yeux fermés plein de choses nouvelles et en suis profondément ravi).
