Biography
Georges Brassens (1921-1981), born in Sète, was France's quintessential chansonnier: one man, one guitar, and songs of anarchists, lovers and petty thieves written with a poet's precision. Signed to #Philips Records# after Patachou championed him, he recorded standards including 'Le Gorille' and 'Les Copains d'abord'. His diction, swing and gentle subversion made him a national institution whose songs remain part of French daily life.
