"Quebec has always endorsed its culture, upholding its folklore and traditional music as well as its popular variety genre. Two eminent historians from Montreal (Martin Duchesne and Robert Therien) have decided to create a descriptive catalogue of successful songs from 1900 to 1960. This 4 CDs boxed set features 100 titles which were all well-received at the time and which belong to the history of Francophone songs in North America." Patrick Fremeaux & Claude Colombini
