Salut, Poupee

The pop culture Prague Spring that YouTube has brought us has just been crushed by the Copyright Tanks: Many clips have been knocked out of the system in the last few days (including my last French Pop Wednesday clip from Antoine, dammit...)

Well, let's see how long you get to watch such things as my latest finding, Michel Polnareff's amazing song La Poupee Qui Fait Non - on the original album track version of this song, the main guitar riff was supposedly played by none other than Jimmy Page, a session musician on a lot of the legendary french pop songs, many of which were actually recorded in London...

What the world needs now is a nice Polnareff boxset.

(Thanks for fighting the good fight, Citycab!)
