The success of Un Homme et Une Femme

to Pierre Barouh, and he went on creating his own record label "Saravah"
and at the same time developing his own style with bossa nova and
other world's music influences.
Trivia:
- Sarava is a Brazilian word
that means "blessing for the living and the dead" and Barouh added
the additional "h" resembling his own surname. Also Barouh in Hebrew
means "Blessed". Source:
