Un Jour Parfait

Un Jour Parfait (French for "a perfect day") is the second solo album by the Stranglers' bassist Jean-Jacques Burnel, released on 23 September 1988 by Epic Records.

[3] The album was aimed at the French market[4] and its release limited to certain territories,[5] but was available in the UK as an import.

[1] Pat Gilbert of Record Collector magazine described the album as a "collection of melodic pop songs ... including a number of Latin-tinged tracks which faintly echoed the light, whimsical strains of the Stranglers' Feline album.

"[1] In his book Peaches: A Chronicle of The Stranglers 1974-1990, Robert Endeacott described it as having "a gentle Euro disco vibe mixed in with a strong sense of melancholy, soaked in majestic keyboards.

"[4] The track "Weekend" is a reworking of "Les Dames de Rochefort", a 1988 song by Belgian band Glacier Georges.
