Various - Souvenirs Ye ye

Review by Erhard Küster

Souvenirs Ye ye is a compilation album featuring various artists and their interpretations of the Ye-ye music genre. The album takes listeners back to the 1960s, a time when Ye-ye music was at its peak in France.

The album showcases the diverse range of styles that Ye-ye music had to offer. From the upbeat and catchy tunes of Jacqueline Taieb's "7 Heures du Matin" to the slower, more contemplative sound of France Gall's "Laisse Tomber Les Filles," Souvenirs Ye ye has something for everyone.

The album also features lesser-known artists such as Clothilde, who brings a unique and quirky sound to the mix with her song "Saperlipopette." The compilation also includes tracks from more well-known artists like Serge Gainsbourg and Françoise Hardy.

Summary by Erhard Küster

Souvenirs Ye ye is a great introduction to the Ye-ye genre for those unfamiliar with it. The album is well-curated and the songs flow seamlessly from one to the next. Fans of 1960s French pop music will find much to enjoy here.
