Details:
Latest work from a true champion of the French tradition of song, "Chanson Francaise." For over three decades, Eric has traveled the world, performing in over 130 countries. His journey represents a life-long exploration of musical styles of the world.

Incorporating elements of native song from the Francophone tropics around the world (Caribbean, African, and S.E. Asia), Eric has fused these into a tour-de-force that still honors the rootsy folk traditions born in Paris in the 1960''s.

"Faut-il encore 2000 ans?" (Will it take another 2000 years) presents Eric in a new light). He has adapted many familiar James TAYLOR signature pieces to his own brand of witty, socially introspective, and insightful lyrics. The listeners will hear the familiar music of one of America''s songwriting legends, but this time, they will be transported to a new place, on a new journey with Eric.

This journey finally culminates in the beautifully serene, "Naissance d''une planete" (Birth of a planet), composed by his talented friend Jean BOUCHETY, where Eric gets to show off his classical training. The album underscores how good music knows no language barriers, and non-French speakers can enjoy this infinitely listenable album with full relish of the musical joy it possesses.
