Chicas Ye-Ye

Iberian actress Soledad Miranda, (Eugénie de Sade, Vampyros Lesbos) "also released a couple of Yé-Yé pop records in the mid-1960s with some success. Soledad was a well-rounded girl who enjoyed writing poetry, painting, and reading books."

Six tracks can be found on CHICAS YE-YE at ACM2 including a version of "Chim Chim Chery"

Tiny and Manfred

Tiny Yong, the tiny girl with the big voice--yes, I actually said it.....performs French pop numbers, mais oui.

Oh, Sheila.

"Bonjour, Monsieur Le Directeur"

The fine folks over at Blowupdoll are in the midst of a weeklong tribute to groovy '60s songstress Sheila. Appréciez!

Conchita Velasco put kind of an an interesting raspy little edge to her 60s pop songs, bordering on aggressive, really. Who knows, this chica yeye thing, it just might take off.

She's adorable, but he of the Francis the Talking Mule sweater is a total dorkazoid.
