Gouts de Luxe is a French group originally from Brest and created by Jacques le Honsec and Jean-Eric Monfort in the mid-1980s. Group which will be joined later by Marianna Kliska. The name of the group would have been simply inspired by a Chanel show ...
Group that will remain mainly in French musical history for the title "Les yeux de Laura" which came out in 1986.
Huge single which will be a hit this year throughout France and which will remain as his main hit.
He produced other well-made titles during the 1980s that it would have been a shame to ignore.
To discover or rediscover.

1986 ... just a single title, THIS title, was enough to bring the group One Shot into the musical legend of the 80s. A title which will undoubtedly remain as one of the biggest dance hits of the decade on the French side. HU-GE !
1987 ... a truly extraordinary group, which will have passed like a shooting star, but with obvious talent. And who will have produced several titles of more than certain quality !
1987 ... titles mostly gone unnoticed but the point of this blog is precisely to bring them up to date. Quite simply...
1989 ... surely one of the best dance sounds of recent years on the French side and despite this, the group did not know how to impose himself as heavyweights in the music scene. Pity...
1989 ... a last title which shows a slightly darker side of the group. Anyway, a group that really deserved to go further ...
