In 1976, {|Robert Charlebois|}' former label, {|Gamma|}, released a second two-LP set of material from the singer's five albums from 1967-1971: {|Robert Charlebois|}, {|Robert Charlebois Louise Forestier|}, {|Quebec Love|}, {|Un Gars Ben Ordinaire|}, and {|Robert Charlebois [aka Le Mont Athos]|}. There is not a repeated track between the two sets and together they comprise all but seven of the songs released during that period. Most of {|Charlebois|}' radio hits were included in the first collection (released in 1972). So paradoxically this one lacks some of his best-known songs, but it includes the most interesting material from his {|psychedelic|} period: album-oriented pieces like {|La Marche du President,|} {|Engagement,|} and {|La Fin du Monde,|} including a healthy chunk from the 1968 {|Robert Charlebois Louise Forestier|}. Still, this is a hodgepodge quickly and carelessly put together. The track sequencing is aleatory, the pressing cheap, the graphics sloppy, and information limited to song titles. ~ Francois Couture Less
