Gold
The French pop-rock band Gold was formed in the early 1960s by a group of high school students from the commune of Gaillac in Tarn. Originally named Gold-Fingers, the group consisted of a revolving door lineup of musicians that began performing at local parties and events in the Toulouse region. After recruiting singer Émile Wandelmer in 1967, the band slowly but surely began professionalizing with the release of the singles "Souviens-toi" and "Love Is Here" in 1974. Gold, their studio debut, saw the light in 1982 and was followed by their first hit single "Plus près des étoiles," which reached Number 2 on the French charts in 1984. During this time, Gold enlisted singer and guitarist Lucien Crémadès, who would go on to become one of the group's major creative forces throughout its decades-spanning career. In the following years, the band scored a string of back-to-back Top 10 hits that included "Capitaine abandonné" (1985), "Ville de lumière" (1986), "Laissez-nous chanter" (1987), and "Calicoba" (1987), the title track from Gold's fourth LP. In late 1986, they were awarded a Victories de la Musique award right before embarking on a tour throughout French-speaking Europe that captured the band at their artistic peak. Live à l’Olympia, their gold-selling first live LP, documented one of their three performances at Paris' iconic theatre. Despite Émile Wandelmer's departure in 1990, Gold continued to tour record with a lineup consisting of Lucien Cremadès, Bernard Mazauric, Étienne Salvador, and David Bouad, who joined the band in 2007. Le Long Chemin, their ninth studio effort, was released in 2016 to commemorate 50th anniversary.
