Quebec folk legend Richard Séguin is from a bygone age, devoid of bells and whistles, when singer/songwriters sang their truth because its all they knew. He brings that era into the present with his 14th album, a rootsy gem bearing hard-won insights on life and the world around us. His voice exudes a weary warmth on heartrending opener Quand on ne saura plus chanter, in which he imagines how stories will be told when there are no more songs. The softly strummed Au bord du temps finds a touching way in to the plight of refugees, while Séguin taps his inner rocker on Le manteau, about an old coat and new beginnings.
