He was the first chansonnier, acknowledged as such, to be accompanied by the electric guitar or to sing with a group, and he was succeeded in this by Claude Dubois, Jean-Pierre Ferland, and Jacques Michel and a new generation of singer-songwriters.
Younger chansonniers of the group type of the 1970s, such as Harmonium, Les Séguin, Jim et Bertrand, Beau Dommage, and Garolou, recalled the early chansonniers by their vitality and abundant skills in performance.

 Peraino, Judith Ann (1995)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
This dissertation considers thirty-seven unique monophonic pieces recorded in mensural notation by ten different scribes to the thirteenth-century chansonnier Paris, Bibliothèque Nationale fr.844.
Ironically, what relates these added pieces to one another is their lack of relation to the genres, notation, and format of the original corpus, which includes both monophonic songs and polyphonic motets.
The purpose of this dissertation is to gain an understanding of the musical impetus that lay behind the recording of these thirty-seven idiosyncratic examples of mensural monophony in an elaborate chansonnier, and to use that understanding to evaluate present-day ideas about thirteenth- and fourteenth-century notions of genre.

Shailor's 1988 exhibition “The Medieval Book,” are MS 18 (a fourteenth-century French missal), MS 42 (a late fifteenth-century Florentine gradual), and MS 205 (a mid fifteenth-century processional that originated from a Dominican nunnery).
