i was beyond thrilled to learn there a few extra genevieve waite songs around - they can be found on the 'andy warhol presents...man on the moon. a john phillips space musical! there are 5 new songs on the cd plus this little oddity which makes me laugh.
if you want to read about this disastrous - but i think totally wonderful musical read this
this was an answer to a quiz that was just on tv (i got the answer correct of course- would you expect any less?!) and it made me wonder if a video existed- and there are a few performances :) enjoy
just after 'laugh-in' in 72, goldie recorded a country album. not a musical highlight in any way, but in this curiously charming song she sings in french. check it out - what do you think?
FRANCOISE HARDY - BALD IST SO LANG HER
like many artists at the time, francoise recorded in other languages apart from french - including a fantastic german album in 1970. and it's nowhere near as unappealing as it sounds! - she makes a rather ugly language sound marvy!
DALIDA & ALAIN DELON - PAROLES...PAROLES...
oh my god - the second he speaks my legs turn to jelly. very sexy indeed. i was bought the dalida tv mini series for christmas- not watched it yet but cant wait!
LINDA PERHACS - HEY, WHO REALLY CARES
i know i've posted this before - but everytime i hear it, i feel the need to share! it's just gorgeous 1970s psyche folk music.
DEE D. JACKSON - RED FLIGHT
i've been painting the kitchen today - a totally boring activity that's been made bearable by listening the space age disco queen dee d. she recorded a handful of songs that are like a mini space disco opera - genuis! if you like this - check out automatic lover, meteor man, venus, goddess of love, cosmic curves and s.o.s.
JEANETTE - I AM A REBEL
i love jeanette in spanish, i love jeanette in french, i now also love jeanette in english (with the exception of her 'love is blue' cover which is very disappointing). i hope you'll love jeanettes 'soy rebelde' in english too!
GENEVIEVE WAITE - FEMME FATALE
is everyone familiar with g.w.? if not, you need to be. an actress in a few hip movies in the late 60's/early 70's and ex wife of john philipps from the mamas and the papas - she only recorded one totally amazing album in 73. think heroin betty boop, a drunken flapper, jodie foster as tallulah. mazing!
my personal faves worth checking out are pink gin and lime, girls and love is coming back.
JANE BIRKIN - KAWASAKI
jane goes all wild girl on us on this gainsbourg penned number from her 73 album di doo dah.
absolutely adore this picture too.
bang!
