A sixties occasion black and white Blink and spot a young Serge grinning through the haze of Gitane cloud in a Paris night club The guitarist loose lipped drooped fag plunking along to a kind of beat
Jaerose entranced a cool cat in a hat perched on big sixties hair sitting in the front row a long cigarette holder protruding from her mouth ash dropping setting fire to the tulle skirt of the woman seated next to her :)
Sheilagh Lee said :you set the scene well kind of makes anyone want to be there.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great piece of nostalgia. I prefer trad jazz but this will do fine for today.
ReplyDeleteBut what about tomorrow oldegg?
ReplyDeleteAh! This was great - words and music. I used to smoke Gitanes (or Gauloises) and listen to this kind of music when it was new.
ReplyDeleteWow...I would have thought you were so cool!
ReplyDeleteJust as well we didn't meet, we would have married and been divorced by now:)
