in and it's all here - a zillion fab photos of Francoise looking beautifully
cool and pouty, a clip of her singing "Mon Amie La Rose", lists
of Francoise related books, cover shots and even a decades' worth of scanned

She's still performing and releasing stuff today and has performed with Belle

want to visit - get a glimpse of Nancy's glamorous lifestyle in her photo
gallery which features some fantastic shots of her in the sixties; pick your
favourite Nancy tunes on her jukebox; buy Nancy records, dvds, videos and
postcards in her bootique and keep up with the latest Nancy happenings sadly

Ah we loved DDRR when it was held at Po Na Na in Islington and
now it's back on in bracing Brighton - as good a reason as any to spend a
weekend by the seaside. For the uninitiated, it's girl group heaven - you'll
never hear a male lead vocal at DDRR but you'll hear plenty of The Chiffons,
Maxine Brown, Brenda Holloway, Dusty, The Marvelettes, etc. Lovely!

If you have any of the Swinging Mademoiselles LPs featuring lovely French
chanteuses like Cleo and Delphine you will think you have died and gone to
heaven when you check out this site. It's in French but even if you scraped
a C in GCSE French you make your way to the Jukebox and download obscure classics
like Cleo's Parti-pris. Marvelleuse ma cherie!
