The French twist

Every twist band needs their very own twist theme and Viens dansez le twist is what the guys from Les Chaussettes Noires cooked up back in 1961. Watch lead singer Eddy Mitchell move all over the place for the folks at home. Look at that saxophone player go! Oh, and a “pick-up” in French (and in a bunch of other languages) is a record player.

Peak-a-boo

Pierre Cardin

As Radio Oh la la marches on in its own style, more and more people are tuning in to the webradio. What am I on about? Well, the webradio actually maxed out today for the first time since it has been hosted on a proper server. Of course, I need to keep an eye on the situation so that when the time comes to expand and improve, I’ll be ready. In the mean time, I’d like to consider this a nice milestone. Vive Radio Oh la la!

turntable

Back to business with some groovy, jazzy and twangy tunes! Podcast No. 16 goes from modern to old and from one country to the next, like a get-in-your-car-and-drive musical roadtrip. Did I say trip? Jenny Rock pleads her case, while 5 Gentlemen make theirs. Next stop, a request for some Marie Laforêt, an uppity visit with Joël Denis and a pit stop to shake your limbs with Ariane. Listen for that scrumptious drum intro by Les Champions at the end of the road.

Playlist
Jenny Rock – Donne-moi ta jeunesse
5 Gentlemen – Si tu reviens chez moi
Marie Laforêt – Ivan, Boris et moi
Joël Denis – Hey, hey Lolita
