La question

La question is the eleventh studio album by French singer-songwriter Françoise Hardy, released in October 1971 on Sonopresse. Like many of her previous records, it was originally released without a title and came to be referred to, later on, by the name of its most popular song. It is her second album produced under Hypopotam, a production company she established in 1970. The music on the album was almost entirely composed by the Brazilian musician Tuca, who supervised the project and participated as a guitarist.
Writing for AllMusic, Richie Unterberger lauded the album, choosing "La question", "Le martien" and "Bâti mon nid" as the album's most representative tracks, and writing: "As fireside romantic music goes, it beats the hell out of José Feliciano." In 2015, he also stated that La question is "easily her strongest post-mid-1960s album, not to mention one of the all-time makeout records."
