Tracks :
1987 ... the Hot Chololate adventure ended, the singer now stands on his own feet and signs here a very successful first solo title. Successful to the point of offering him his highest ranked title of all his solo discography !
1987 ... a year 1987 which will remain as his best vintage in terms of solo career. In just 2 titles the singer will have succeeded in inscribing his name in the musical Pantheon of the 80s, just next to that of Hot Chocolate ...
1988 ... the years go by but are not necessarily alike. The proof with this title which will go completely unnoticed. Sometimes you don't have to try to understand ...
1989 ... business picks up slowly but surely in the year 1989. The singer finds the path to success, admittedly small, but it's always better than nothing as they say ...

1996 ... back to pure Dance mode in a perfectly trendy style. A title which will not be classified but which would have frankly deserved to be ...
1998 ... where the art of making something new with something old. He brings up to date one of the flagship titles of his former group Hot Chocolate and this version, very close to the old one, largely holds up. To the point of allowing him to find his way back to the Charts. Who would've believed that...
2001 ... a new dynamic of success that continues with this title. A totally improbable and above all unexpected return which shows that in the musical field, nothing is ever finished. Unfortunately, this will be the last time he will be successful ...
