SLEEVE NOTES:
Love is Blue:
It is this music that made Paul Mauriat the international star he is today. The Paul Mauriat Grand Orchestra was formed in 1965 in today's style. The song "Love is Blue" was recorded in 1967, the orchestra's second year, and was originally a prize-winning hit sung by Vicky, an idol singer from Greece who represented Luxembourg in the Eurovision Contest in the same year. It was a hit song. Initially, Vicky's recordings were very successful in Europe, but when the Paul Mauriat Grand Orchestra performed the song, people turned their attention to Paul Mauriat, and in 1968, the song dominated the U.S. hit charts for 18 weeks. As mentioned in the beginning, the song made Paul Mauriat's name known all over the world. For Paul Mauriat and for many Paul Mauriat fans, this song "Love is Blue" is unforgettable.
Nocturne:
This song was recorded in 1966, a year before "Love is Blue." It was Paul Mauriat's first hit song. Composed by Paul Mauriat himself, Paul Mauriat's beautiful sound has remained consistent from that time until today.
