Format:Audio CD
Though this is obviously a "cheapo" release with very sparse information about the tracks and the artist, it is actually a pretty well compiled CD of some of Hardy's best early recordings.
Containing most her of biggest hits like "Ce Petite Coeur", "Tous les Garcons et les Filles", "La Maison Ou J'Ai Grandi" and her only British top 20 hit-single "All Over the World", the CD gives a fine introduction to the most melodic and catchy side of Hardy.
A few harder to find tracks have also been included, among those English versions of some of her biggest hits in France.
For those who are not familar with Hardy's Vogue recordings or who just like intelligent 1960's pop, this CD is highly recommended.
If you want more of the same there is double CD called "The Vogue Years" covering her 1962-67 period brilliantly.

This is the first album I reach for when the weather is cracking the pavement! It has such a warm light touch and is one of the best 'feel good' albums you could hope for. Everyone who hears it wants to go and buy a copy.
It doesn't matter in the slightest that most of the tracks are in French, whether you understand them or not, the feeling comes through. Infact, if the whole ablbum was in English it would probably be too syrupy for words.
The simplicity of the tune on Tous Les Garcons (either version on this cd)is one of those catchy numbers that will haunt you for days and you will find yourself humming it at the most embarrassing moments. Others have more depth and do bring back memories of what it was like to feel that young!
This is a great primer for the talent of Francois Hardy, and should give you the incentive to unearth some of her other recordings.

Arguably, this album comprises 22 of Francoise's most beautiful 1960s recordings, including a couple of English/Italian translations, just for good measure. From the pastoral 'Le Premier Bonheur Du Jour', through the playful 'Ce Petit Coeur' to the heart-wrenching 'Voila', this compilation should appeal to any fan of bitter-sweet (though never sickly) love songs. You don't even need to understand French - her voice says it all!

Excellent CD for Husbands Birthday
My husband has been carrying around an old tatty cassette of Francoise Hardy for over twenty years, but did not know her name. He played it in the car - with many crackles!! Read more

Sunlight after the dark
Francois Hardy sings with the majestic beauty of a canary trapped in a cage. 60's french chansons sound bitter sweet and never treacle in the language d'amour. Read more

A collection of her best 1970s work

Beautiful
This CD is beautiful. If you love female vocalists and are not worried about whether you unerstand the lyrics (or you speak French) then this is a must have.

Disappointed compared to other recordings of hers of the same songs
I'm surprised this has got such superb reviews and bought it on the strength of these.

Une belle fille
The perfect music to listen to in an empty beachfront cafe near Bayonne and dream of your first kiss with a french girl who perhaps looks a little like Francoise. Read more
