Produktbeschreibung
Yé-yé is a delightful style of pop music featuring young female singers that influenced France, Québec and other European countries with its "camp” style throughout the 1960s. This collection by pop music expert Jean-Emmanuel Deluxe includes many interviews with the original singers and producers, and hundreds of visual examples of record covers, magazines, and a teenaged fan's scrapbook from the period. This book includes the famous Yé-Yé practitioners Sylvie Vartan, France Gall, Françoise Hardy, Chantal Goya, Brigitte Bardot, Jane Birkin and dozens of others, including perverse Serge Gainsbourg. Yé-Yé had secondary explosions in the 1970s and 1990s in Japan and Europe through the likes of Lio (who provides this book's foreword), and in the United States through singers like April March, whose Yé-Yé number "Chick Habit” was heard in the Quentin Tarantino film Death Proof. Interest in Yé-Yé exploded again when Megan Draper sang the Yé-Yé number "Zou Bisou Bisou,” originally made famous by Gillian Hills, in the 5th season of Mad Men. Be prepared to be immersed in this beloved but cruelly neglected pop music genre.
