May 18, Antonomasia rated it really liked it Recommended to Antonomasia Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop Tosh. Shelves: scribdmusicfrancedecades, francophonie. First time Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop read a colour ebook on a recently-acquired second hand tablet. The reading process itself, complete with expandable pictures, had its own futuristic, impossibly shiny pop novelty to match the era. Also, this has probably the most pink text I've read in a book since my age hit double figures, used here for lyrics and headings. I'm Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop sure if the text is translated no translator is creditedor if the French author was himself writing in English. Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop one or the other, as there are a few odd word choices, Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop changes of tone and level of formality, as you might find in a blog - and things that don't make sense, but could conceivably do so rephrased, and in a different culture: e. Most of the book is phrased just fine though, and given the subject, there's an eccentric charm to its moments of broken English, as if one were listening to an interview with a French pop star. French culture has a more solid division between Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop Swinging Sixties and the late 60s than we do: is like a fault-line wherever it's mentioned. For the Goodreads friend who first made me aware of the book, whom I gather is a serious aficionado, most of the content was already familiar. With the proviso that it must have the odd inconsistency with other books, as is customary with rock biographies. There's a long discography of albums in the back, but specific songs are singled out in the text. A book you'd likely want to refer back to if you were interested enough to read it in the first place. I'd never have bought this on spec, and am very glad and surprised to have found it on Scribd. Deluxe concentrates on the female singers themselves. All the obvious names: Gall, Hardy, Vartan though not much on Sheila for some reason. Numerous lesser lights and one-hit wonders get their turn too, including Gillian Hills, whom I was interested to hear about because a friend is a fan and recommended her film Beat Girla wonderful bit of vintage trash, a few years ago. Her name could hardly be more prosaic, however, like many of the French girl singers, she had a glamorous family background with art and showbiz connections. Perhaps unfairly as info about him is so easily Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop elsewhere. Obviously his talent is acknowledged, whilst his unsavoury side is more in evidence here than in the biopic, e. People who've read many of my posts will know that I'm rarely taken aback by sleaze in art, and tend to judge changing social mores by their own time, but I was actually slightly shocked by two SG items. The odd sleazy sleeve aside, this book is a feast as far as record covers, magazine photos and fashion Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop concerned. Fascinating to see how some images from the same time age much better than others, which aesthetic influences we've taken up and which discarded. Other sleeves, often of little-known singers, also many of 's surprisingly - look dated, kitschy and square in a way that was, when I was growing up, more associated with 70s than 60s stuff. All those shots of people in their latest gear leaning on trees, oh dear. And I'm not sure toner for blonde hair had been invented then, so brassy. Pondered why I found the consumerist, future-minded s oppressive in Virginia Woolf's essays The London Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop recently, yet the s aesthetic and outlook always seems so lovely and charming. An interview here with pop star Stella says "one word sums up the whole era: carefreeness". Much novelty, of things now jaded. A playfulness now absent, as cultural discussion seems to constantly try and avoid walking on eggshells. And then there's the political egalitarianism, the post-war consensus in Britain. None characteristic of the 30s, a time of imminent war, growing fascism and associated strictness and formality in philosophy and art. An excellent, if sometimes eccentric, book - very much worth a look if you think you might be interested in it. View 1 comment. Nov 26, Tosh rated it really liked it. It is basically teenage music, but mostly written by older men, for instance . But beyond that it is a fascinating sub-culture to fish in, because the music, overall, is a the very least super interesting, and at its best- excellent records. In France, the arranger as well as the songwriter are part of the magic that makes a great record. Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop I check out who the arranger is, and then my money quickly goes to that relasase, especially if it is someone like Jean-Claude Vannier, who did a lot of classic recordings with Gainsbourg. His touch of genius always shows up no matter who the artist or singer is - so it is very much like following your favorite record producer - or am I the only one who buys records due to the production credits? Deluxe's book, which is also well-illustrated with both ads from that time as well as record covers, pretty much covers the basics as well Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop the odd releases that came out of this scene. So for sure its a good guide to have on your side of the table as one Ye-Ye Girls: Of 60s French Pop YouTube footage or online shops. He also covers current music figures like April March, who is fantastic by the way, and others who were influenced by the 60's scene. This book is designed for the beginner who is looking for hardcore information or names to get their listening habits in order. So yeah I highly recommend this book as a beginner's guide and if you want to get deeper into the subject do get the Verlant Gainsbourg biography. View all 5 comments. Dec 31, Amy rated it it was ok. Some great photos, but the writing is disorganized and clunky or perhaps badly translated. If you like French filles, this is the book for you! I think it is a good book, do like a lot of the French female singers from the 60's, and was curious about them, so I bought this book. I did learn a lot and learned about some that I did not know. Over all a good read, I recommend it. Apr 07, Wink rated it it was amazing. Mar 10, Rupert rated it liked it. So very much promise, such mixed delivery. Great subject that as far as I know has not had a lot of books written about it, but this will not be the go to tome on it. Deluxe seems to know of what he speaks, but maybe he's too close to the subject, so he can't present it in a clear, in depth manner. He writes as if he's assuming the reader already knows everything that he does. Still a decent book for refer So very much promise, such mixed delivery.
