A propos de la présentation des albums de 1987 à nos jours par Bruno Fabriguès

L'année 1986 vient de s'achever et la Westcoast Music commence à décliner...

L'âge d'or de la Westcoast est passé et malgré tout la Westcoast Music continue de perdurer tant bien que mal... et d'exercer une certaine fascination pour une nouvelle génération de musiciens (essentiellement américains, australiens, japonais et européens).

Par conséquent, nous allons retrouver les incontournables : Toto, Jay Graydon, Eagles, Bill Champlin, Doobie Brothers, Richard Page, Robbie Dupree, Bobby Caldwell parmi tant d'autres ainsi qu'une nouvelle génération emmenée par Venice, AOR, Peter Friestedt, Jeff Larson, George Grunwald, Marco Taggiasco...

Bruno Fabriguès vous présente une liste complète d'albums à partir de 1987 jusqu'à nos jours. Nous allons trouver des albums que l'on pourrait qualifier de "pure" Westcoast ou tourné vers l'AOR voire Soft Rock ou Smooth Jazz avec des réminiscences Westcoast.

Cette liste sera exhaustive mais aussi très complète (avec les Best Of et les rééditions comportant des morceaux inédits ainsi que les versions "Jap.").

***

The 1986 year just ended and the Westcoast Music begins to decline.

The golden age of Westcoast is past and still continues to persist somehow ... and exercise a certain fascination for the new generation of musicians (Americans, Australians, Japaneses and Europeans).

We will find some absolute must like Toto, Jay Graydon, Eagles, Bill Champlin, Doobie Brothers, Richard Page, Robbie Dupree, Bobby Caldwell and a new generation headed by Venice, The AOR project, Peter Friestedt, Jeff Larson, George Grunwald, Marco Taggiasco...

Bruno Fabriguès presente to you a complete albums list from 1987 until today. We will find some albums that could be described as pure Westcoast Music or AOR oriented, even Soft Rock or Smooth Jazz with some echoes of Westcoast Music.

This list will be exhaustive and complete (Best Of...).
