Michel Jonasz "Tristesse"
This great French singer has always been influenced by the Saint-Germain des Pres Parisian Jazz sound of the 50s and the classic US Black Music of the 60s. His music is a mix of both influences as well as an approach of Soul with beautiful background vocals and Jazz Fusion... Touches of West Coast music here and there!
