i'm getting rid of some doubles and no longer needed vinyl. is anyone interested in buying some or all of these at a great price. as a whole it's worth about £60 (partly due to rita pavone being worth £20, sandie £7, nicolettea £7, martine £5) - but i won't charge you £60!!! i'm open to any decent (or even a cheeky!) offer - i'd just be happy to get rid of them in one lot to someone who'd enjoy them as much as i have. email address to the left. x

livres: francoise
francoise par jean-marie perier
this gorgeous hardback features wonderful photos of francoise from the 60s to the present day. all taken the best and most creative photographer of that era: jean-marie perier. he couldn't take a bad photo of her- whether posed or candid - he manages to capture something that is just magical.
not much to read but a lot to look at and enjoy.

livres: serge et jane
jane & serge: a family album by andrew birkin
this must be the most intimate book available about jane and serge. lots of black and white family photos, serge pulling faces, having fun, the children at play - charlotte a cute little tomboy, jane laughing, behind the scenes snapshots - it feels like a personal insight in to their lives. also included is a short piece by jane to andrew and andrews memories of jane as a child and her life with serge - which i thought was just beautiful - and it's in english too!!! (which makes a nice change from having to slowly decipher a french text!). also included is an embroidered patch, stickers, a fold out poster full of candid photos and some contact sheets. wonderful
