This is a list of released records by and with Michel Portal. It is ordered chronologically where the year refers, in general, to the recording date. All items are in LP format unless stated otherwise. CD re-issues are preceeded by an asterisk '*'. In those cases where the catalog numbers of LP and CD issue are essentially the same it is not repeated after the *. Releases from 1988 onwards are all available as CDs and therefore no special indication is made.
Michel Portal played as session musician on many more records by French singers in the 1960s and early 1970s. Also, he was involved in several releases of CBS (and Epic) France as musical director in 1966/1967. If anyone can provide pertinent information here please contact me.
Note that compilations of otherwise available material and repackages are, in general, not included in this list.
