Jacques Brel was one of the most intensely dramatic singer-songwriters in the history of popular music, H is audiences were held spellbound by the sheer ferocity of his performances and by deep, dark lyrics that seemed to widen the definition of what a popular song could be about, Ne Me Quitte Pas (If You Go Away) is Brel's most famous song and the beautiful, first recording is included here alongside his most powerful, Le Mort (My Death) and the singer-songwriters first hit, Quand on n'a que l'amour. |
