Francis Lai on Video, Audio or Printed Materials

Francis Lai has that romantic sound from France, with his accordion and his lush compositions. His famous themes from movies such as A Man and a Woman and Love Story are worldwide known and now standards of popular music. His works extend however to a more wide catalogue with a great variety of soundtracks, but his TV or radio appearances are very rare. His concerts are more rare yet, but at least we have (so far) a couple of official recordings. If you have more information regarding his music or interviews, let us know.

This is a list of the appearances on TV or movies, concerts, interviews, books, article magazines and related material. I am still researching for his works so what you see here is a sample of what would be featured soon.
