История

Jean-Michel Delpech (26 January 1946 – 2 January 2016), known as Michel Delpech, was a French singer-songwriter and actor. Jean-Michel Bertrand Delpech was born the 26th january of 1946 in Courbevoie, a city located nearby the parisian suburbs. Born during the baby boom, he’s the son of Bertrand Charles Delpech, a metal chrome plater and Christiane Cécile Marie Josselin, housewife. He has got 2 little sisters: Catherine and Martine. His maternal family (Josselin) is a winegrower family, owner and harvesters of champagne in Gyé-Sur-Seine in the Aube department. His father's ancestral home is in Sologne, more especially in Dhuizon, where his hairdresser grandfather lives and also in La Ferté-Saint-Cyr, where live his uncles and cousins grocers, loggers and farmers. The young Michel spends week-ends and holidays in his provincial family, sometimes working in the grocery store of his aunt. Its parents having moved to Cormeilles-en-Parisis in Seine-et-Oise (today known as Val-d’Oise), Jean-Michel Delpech studied in the Chabanne college and in the Pontoise’s Camille-Pissarro high-school from 1961 to 1964. As a teenager he got passionate about famous classic fingers such as Luis Mariano, and then for the great names from the 1950s such as Gilbert Nécaud and Charles Aznavour. In 1963, in high school, he created a little orchestra with his schoolmates. Before attending his final high school exams, he left high school in january 1964 to focus on singing. He took a chance by attending an audition in Paris to join the disque Vogue record company. Just aged 18, he released his first disc named Anatole, and met the composer Roland Vincent. While going to Roland’s house based in Saint-Cloud for a working session, he rethinks about his highschool years and about the coffee he used to go with his mates after the school day. In the train, between Saint Lazare and Saint Cloud train station, he writes the lyrics of Chez Laurette, for which Roland Vincent felt seduced and inspired and quickly found a melody. Released the 1st of May 1965, during the yéyé period, this nostalgic teenager music wasn't a success at its release but thanks to the numerous radio streams, started to experience a slight celebrity. In 1965, Michel Delpech attended a musical comedy Copains-Clopant, which was featured for 6 months, before at the Michodière theater and then at the Gymnase Theater in Paris: the integration of the Chez Laurette Music helped him to be famous. During this musical comedy, Delpech meets Chantal SImon, who he sang a song with. Then he’ll marry her at the age of 20 in 1966. The same year, under the Festival Label, he recorded its 2nd 45 laps: Inventaire 1966, new stepping stone towards the star status. As Jacques Prévert and as a tribute to the poetry, he compiles in the verse of the music, a list of news such as the Vietnam war, the minijupe, the Courrèges boots, the Cacharel trend, the flower shirts,etc. Still in 1966, he made the first part during 38 shows of Jacques Brell who said goodbye to the Olympia. ...

La TV des 70's : Quand Giscard était président
Self (archive footage)
In May 1974, Valéry Giscard d'Estaing became President of the Republic and wanted to bring about a new era of modernity. One of his first decisions was to break up the ORTF with the creation of three new television channels: TF1, Antenne 2 and FR3. Three new public channels but autonomous and competing. It is a race for the audience which is engaged then, and from now on the channels will make the war! This competition will give birth to a real golden age for television programs, with variety shows in the forefront. The stars of the song are going to invade the living rooms of the French for their biggest pleasure. This unedited documentary tells the story of the metamorphosis of this television of the early 1970s, between freedom of tone, scandals, political intrigues and programs that have become mythical.
