{"product_id":"various-artists-cest-chic","title":"C'est Chic!: French Girl Singers Of The 1960s","description":"\u003ch5\u003eMore Info\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* This time last year Ace were busy preparing for the release on Big Beat International of \"Nippon Girls\", a collection of female vocalists from Japan. It ended up drawing a very favourable reception, especially from hip young club-goers with a yen for something edgy and different to inspire them on the dance floor. For the first issue to carry The new Ace International logo, they stray a little less far from home, hopping just over the channel to France, home of the 1960s yé-yé girl phenomenon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Comprising 24 tracks by 20 acts - Françoise Hardy, France Gall, Jacqueline Taïeb and the country's top girl group Les Gam's are each represented by two titles - \"C'est Chic!\" features many of the premier female stars of Gallic pop, plus a few French-singing non-nationals for good measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* The majority of the songs here are French compositions, but astute listeners will recognise some others in their English language originals. `We Got A Thing That's In The Groove' (as popularised by US soul group the Capitols), `I'm Going Out With The Girls' (Barbara Chandler), `Laugh At Me' (Sonny Bono), `Around And Around We Go' (Lonnie Jay \u0026amp; the Jaynes), `Tiny Goddess' (Nirvana), `He's In Town' (the Tokens) and `The Sha La La Song' (Marianne Faithfull) are each given a distinctive French twist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* The compilers are currently immersed in the recordings of the yé-yé girls of Italy and Spain with a view to future Ace International releases. Also in the works is a collection of compositions by fabled songwriter Serge Gainsbourg, from whose vast catalogue `Roller Girl' by Anna Karina, `Laisser Tomber Les Filles' by France Gall and `Non, A Tous Les Garçons' by Michèle Torr are among this set's highlights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1    LE COEUR AU BOUT DES DOIGTS - Jacqueline Taïeb\u003cbr\u003e2    LAISSER TOMBER LES FILLES - France Gall\u003cbr\u003e3    ROLLER GIRL - Anna Karina\u003cbr\u003e4    JE SUIS FOLLE DE TANT T'AIMER - Arlette Zola\u003cbr\u003e5    NE ME LAISSE PAS L'AIMER - Brigitte Bardot\u003cbr\u003e6    LES FILLES C'EST FAIT POUR FAIRE L'AMOUR - Charlotte Leslie\u003cbr\u003e7    LE TEMPS DE LA RENTRÉE - France Gall\u003cbr\u003e8    L'ADORABLE FEMME DES NEIGES - Christie Laume\u003cbr\u003e9    JE NE SAIS PAS CE QUE JE VEUX - Françoise Hardy\u003cbr\u003e10    CE SOIR JE M'EN VAIS - Jacqueline Taĩeb\u003cbr\u003e11    TU LA REVOIS - Ria Bartok\u003cbr\u003e12    VOILÀ - Françoise Hardy\u003cbr\u003e13    A DEMAIN MY DARLING - Marie Laforêt\u003cbr\u003e14    C'EST LA MODE - Annie Philippe\u003cbr\u003e15    A LA FIN TU GAGNERAS - Jocelyne\u003cbr\u003e16    UN CHAGRIN A OUBLIER - Alice Dona\u003cbr\u003e17    L'AMOUR TOURNE EN ROND - Louise Cordet\u003cbr\u003e18    IMPATIENTE (D'ÊTRE SEULE POUR PLEURER) - Les Gam's With Annie Markan\u003cbr\u003e19    A LA MÊME HEURE - Sheila\u003cbr\u003e20    CHAQUE NUIT - Les Surfs\u003cbr\u003e21    NON, A TOUS LES GARÇONS - Michèle Torr\u003cbr\u003e22    DONNE MOI - Petula Clark\u003cbr\u003e23    L'ÉTÉ REVIENDRA - Les Gam's\u003cbr\u003e24    IL SUFFIT D'UN JOUR - Liz Brady\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ACE","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":39315974684719,"sku":"CDCHD1283","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/files\/7143YNBtZJL._AC_SX679.jpg?v=1780572133","url":"https:\/\/sisterray.co.uk\/products\/various-artists-cest-chic","provider":"Sister Ray","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
