According to Allmusic, "this collection of 12 self-penned tracks shows that the 87-year-old is still capable of cutting it alone".[2] Album cover photograph is taken by Karl Lagerfeld.[3]

History


The songs were written and recorded in France and Belgium. For the arrangements, Eumir Deodato (Frank Sinatra, Aretha Franklin, Björk) and Yvan Cassar (Mylène Farmer, Johnny Hallyday)[4] were invited and the album "travels to Brazil and Paris, with an occasional little trip to Broadway and even Spain for Flamenca, flamenco".[3]

One of the songs, "J'ai Connu" (Gypsy jazz), addresses the genocides that have occurred during Aznavour's lifetime.[2]

It was released digitally on August 30, 2011 by Capitol/EMI. After the release, Aznavour started his new Aznavour en Toute Intimité tour in 2011.
