    SLEEVE NOTES:

    Paul Mauriat has reigned supreme in the world of popular music for 18 years since he formed the current Grand Orchestra in 1965. During his long career, Paul Mauriat has had many big hits, including "Love is Blue" (recorded in 1967), which dominated the top spot on the U.S. Hit Parade for five consecutive weeks, "El Bimbo" (1974), which spread the Latin disco rhythm throughout the world, “Aegean Sea Pearl” (1969), "Penelope" (1966), and "Love is Blue" (1967), which was the first song to reach the top spot on the U.S. hit parade. He has also had many original songs and movie music hits, including "Penelope" (1969), "Nocturne" (1966), and ......etc. He has also had a brilliant career as an artist himself. Not only did he continue to be active as an artist himself, but he also nurtured Mireille Mathieu, who is now a top star in France, and Alcione, who has become a popular star in Brazil, leaving a first-class mark as a composer and arranger.

    With his delicate melodies and brilliant orchestral sound, Paul Mauriat has won the hearts of many fans, and is unrivaled in the number of hits he has had, the number of records he has sold, and the length of his career as a top artist, which continues to grow steadily even today. In 1965, Paul Mauriat was born.

    Since the formation of the current Paul Mauriat Grand Orchestra in 1965, the orchestra has performed in Japan 12 times in the past 82 years, with an audience of more than 2.2 million people up to last year, which is also a remarkable record.

    Paul Mauriat was born in Marseille, southern France, on March 4, 1925. His many hit songs include "Nocturne," "Love is Blue," "Penelope," "Toccata," "Petite Mélodie," "Minuetto," "El Bimbo," "Pegasus," and "Pobre Diablo."

    Hot on the Scent:
    Paul Mauriat, well-known for his many hit melodies, expands his rich world of imagery with new sensory arrangements year after year. This new song is inspired by the image of coffee, a perfect fit for French easy listening. Paul Mauriat's easy listening world is the perfect image for coffee. Enjoy it with ease. Music and coffee - coffee is like background music in our world, whether you are relaxing alone, drinking coffee with your lover, or enjoying a chat with your close friends. Please enjoy this song over a cup of hot coffee. This song will be introduced on TV from September as a TV-CF song for "UCC Coffee".

    Love is Blue '83:
    It is said that it was his big international hit "Love is Blue" that created the mother of today's Paul Mauriat. Originally sung by Vicky, a female singer representing Luxembourg, in the 1967 Eurovision Song Contest, the following year in '68, Paul Mauriat's rendition soared up the U.S. hit charts and stayed at the top for over two months. Since then, Paul Mauriat's name has been heard around the world, and in 1976, he made another appearance on the U.S. charts with a new disco arrangement of the song, this time recording a performance for the third time. This time, the recording is based on the image of the 1967 performance, but the classic song, which is said to be the root of the Paul Mauriat sound, has been brought back to life with a vivid brilliance.
