Jean-Jacques Goldman Biography

Jean-Jacques Goldman is one of the most popular and richest Singer- Songwriter who was born on October 11, 1951 in 19th arrondissement of Paris, France.

Born in Paris to an immigrant Polish Jewish father, Alter Mojze Goldman (born in Lublin) and a German Jewish mother, Ruth Ambrunn (born in Munich), Jean- Jacques Goldman was the third of four children. As a child, he began his music studies on the violin, then the piano. In 1968, he abandoned his classical music studies for “American Rock & Roll” as well as folk music, listening to The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix or Aretha Franklin, and emphasizing the guitar. He also earned a business degree from the École des hautes études commerciales du Nord, commonly known as EDHEC, in Lille. In 1972, he met Catherine, his first wife, with whom he had three children. He first entered the French music scene as a member of a progressive rock group named Taï Phong (“great wind”, “typhoon” in Vietnamese), which released its first album in 1975. Their first song to be a moderate hit was “Sister Jane”. After three albums in English (on which he sang and played guitar as well as violin), Goldman was determined to write and sing in French, which led him to leave the band.

His half-brother Pierre Goldman, a left-wing intellectual and convicted (though later acquitted) robber, was murdered in mysterious circumstances in 1979 in Paris.

From 1990 to 1995, he went on to perform in a trio called Fredericks / Goldman / Jones with Carole Fredericks (an American singer and chorist who had settled in France in the 1970s, the sister of Taj Mahal) and Michael Jones (a Welsh guitarist and singer who had settled in his mother’s native France, whom Goldman knew from Taï Phong—actually he joined the band when Goldman decided to stop touring—and with whom he had a hit in 1985 with “Je te donne”). Together they recorded two studio albums, Fredericks / Goldman / Jones in 1990 and Rouge in 1993 (inspired by the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of the USSR—the title song features the Red Army Choir), one live album, Du New Morning au Zénith, and released several successful singles, such as “Nuit”, “À nos actes manqués”, “Né en 17 à Leidenstadt” (another song about war and how it affects people’s lives), “Juste après” (inspired by a scene in a TV documentary about the work of Médecins Sans Frontières in Congo showing a missionary sister’s harrowing struggle to reanimate a newborn) and “Tu manques”. Several of these songs were later re-recorded in English, but did not find much success in England or the United States.
