They don't make them like that anymore. Reminds me of living in Juan le Pins!

 

Closer to home BB is a sponser of Soi Dog animal hospital where there is the Bridget Bardot Sterilisation Centre. Always makes me snigger!

When you lived in Juan le Pins did you wear a carefully designed topless swimsuit to get an even suntan on your back and on your your legs (rhetorical) ha ha ha

American blues in French just never sounded quite right to me. Creole may be..

 

 

 

You are right, I love american music ( Rock and blues ) and it's true that English language is much more adapted to rock and blues sonorities

you can't sing every thing in French, that's why Johnny Hallyday didn't get a big success in Usa 

 

Edith Piaf was also a singer that French loved because she sings with her heart

This is great!

 

Eclectic selection of French music!

 

Hallyday would be delighted I'm sure.

12 bar blues in French! (This is interesting, there is no French translation; how ironic!)
