Made in France (also issued as Mireille Mathieu or Magnifique!) is a studio album by French singer Mireille Mathieu, released in 1967 by Barclay Records. It was the second Mathieu's album released in the United States, by Atlantic Records.
The single "La Dernière Valse" became a European hit, reaching leading positions in Belgium, Switzerland, and France proper, where it was number one for three weeks in a row.[1][2] With this single, Mathieu also entered the UK chart for the first time, at number 26.[3]
American music magazine Billboard's reviewer wrote that this record's appeal should reach far beyond the French speaking market.[4] In a review of Cash Box said that "the artist waves a powerful spell with her dramatic, dynamic delivery."[5] The reviewer of Record World magazine stated: "The acknowledged successor to Piaf's sparrow, Mathieu is a soaring dove. She's superb."[6]
