Between the middle of the '70s and the early '80s emerged a new generation of French singers-songwriters, musically highly influenced by American and British rock, pop, and folk music. This new scene was called "Nouvelle chanson française" (which means "New French song"). A good period in the history of French pop music, imho.
Here are 30 tracks among my favourites.
