Our Take

If Johnny Hallyday and Valerie Lagrange's "Dansez Le Twist Avec Valerie Lagrange" were a dance move, it would be the awkward shuffle you do when you forget the steps but try to play it off cool. Hallyday, the French Elvis Presley, and Lagrange, the sultry songstress, come together for a collection of twist tunes that flicker like a faulty neon sign. The album opens with the toe-tapping "Twistin' USA," a track that evokes images of poodle skirts and greased-back hair. Hallyday's smooth vocals are juxtaposed with Lagrange's breathy whispers, creating a dynamic tension that is as enticing as it is confusing. "Ya Ya Twist" amps up the energy with a frenetic beat and swirling guitars that will make even the most reluctant wallflower hit the dance floor. Lagrange's vocals shine on this track, adding a touch of mystique to the groovy proceedings. However, the album falters on tracks like "Viens Danser Le Twist," where Hallyday's over-the-top delivery feels more like a parody than a sincere homage to the genre. Lagrange's presence is sorely missed on this track, leaving a void that even Hallyday's charisma can't fill. Overall, "Dansez Le Twist Avec Valerie Lagrange" is a mixed bag of retro charm and missed opportunities. While the album has its moments of brilliance, it ultimately falls short of capturing the magic of the twist era. So grab your dancing shoes, but be prepared for a few missteps along the way.
