La fille de paille
Sylvie Vartan reading guidebooks and browsing postcards in Paris, c.1964. Vartan was one of the first rock girls in France. Before her, it was not common for a French pop artist to sing and dance at the same time. Vartan was the most productive and active of the yé-yé girls; and her rock-and-roll voice and rhythms made her the toughest-sounding of those.
