Details confirming the title of Johnny's posthumous collection have been confirmed. The album will be called Mon pays c'est l'amour, the songs recorded in the months leading up to the legendary singer's death in December last year.
The album will be his 51st studio album, and features ten songs including Back in LA, J'irai parler au diable, Je ne suis q'un homme, and Made in Rock 'n' roll as well as the title track.
Johnny's widow Laeticia says that in the album there is a lot of what he wanted to say before he left. It will be an emotional listen for his fans. Hopefully it will live up to their expectations, there's a tendency for such posthumous releases to disappoint.
The cover picture by Dimitri Coste looks a close relative of his portrait used on the cover of Johnny's 2012 album L'Attente. While the new album features a black and white portrait, it seems to originate from the same photoshoot.
The ten track album will be released on October 19.
