In the great traditions of French bi-lingual balladeers, Louis Philippe's dreamy and fantastical first album evokes Debussy at his most turbulent and the vivid colours of Provence under a broiling Mediterranean sun. |

Diamond Did you say her name was peg? She's great Endless September A vision Goodbye again Anna s'en va Jean and me I collect stamps Sunday morning Camden town Another boy yuri Gagarin Diamond (Karaoke) Jean and me (Karaoke)/ |
The vocal, jazzier phase of Louis' career finds beautiful expression on Yuri Gagarin's Forever Desireable, gaining deserved attention for the sheer class of the man's beautiful voice. His last recording for él, it stands as suitable tribute to a unique talent. |

The sunny pop simplicity of this album harks back to Appointment With Venus, but demonstrates a growing maturity in Louis' work as he presents an irresistible mixture of innocence through experience. Includes the majestic single Guess I'm Dumb, an excellent shoice of cover from the Beach Boys' vast catalogue of hits. |
