En Direct de L'Olympia (1966) Made in France (1967)

En Direct de L'Olympia was the first album released by French singer Mireille Mathieu after her television amateur contest success in November of 1965, and debut performance at the Paris Olympia in December.

The arrangements and musical direction for this album were provided by the orchestra leader and composer Paul Mauriat. Together with song writer André Pascal, they contributed Mon credo, Pourquoi mon amour and Viens dans ma rue.

Singles, and EP's from this album appeared in gatefold format. These records made Mireille a huge star in France, and Europe, and also a big star in North America and Mexico.

All of the songs were in French, and thus limited its success in English speaking countries.
