French music a gogo : Clothilde

French yé-yé girl Clothilde used to say that she was more into painting than music.She worked with producer Germinal Tenas who had to practically force her to make more recordings since she hated all the agitation and performing in public (she was only 19 at the time). According to Germinal her voice was the best suited for the music he had in mind.Germinal also worked with Antoine et Les Problèmes, Christine Delaroche, Sullivan(?) and he later formed his own band, Chorus Reverendus.He enjoyed mixing traditional pop sounds with weird instruments (check out the rubber duckie at the end of this song).The result was a strange and wonderful baroque pop.Two ep's plus 2 Italian cover versions seem to be all that was released.
