Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: One of the original members of Les Chansonniers, the simple but profound Quebec minstrels, Gilles Vigneault sees his influence waning. Even though every song is a political statement, Vigneault calls himself garbage for the English. Today, money influences popular music more than les chansonniers.
