For some reason I found myself, this morning, recalling French singer and performers Christine and the Queens and their rather stunning appearance on Later a couple of years back, just after Prince died. That's French Wednesday for you.

I remember an old girlfriend of mine listened to George Moustaki a lot. This great bit of film turned up tonight on YT with him singing to Françoise Hardy - she looks great...he sounds just like I remember him, and the minders round about look v. cool!

Thank you to my chum, Mr Global Truth, for alerting me to the appearance of the great Michael Marra on Spotify. So to celebrate this French Wednesday here is the great man with Dundee's Hazey Janes with 'Ceci n'est pas Une Pipe' - that's French, is it? (A bit of Dundonian in there!)

French Wednesday this week comes courtesy of new French blues outfit, Delgres, who seem to have a touch of the North African and a spot of swamp in there - swampy desert...now there's something!
