MY 60TH
Impressed by the Shadows and Gene Vincent seen at the festival "Rock accross
the Channel" in Calais in 1961-1962, I decided to learn bass guitar and then I played with "Les
Costers" and "Les Beethoven's", Rock'n Roll groups from Boulogne-sur-Mer, in the north of France.
It was the time of many english rock groups, Beatles, Rolling Stones, Animals, Who, Kinks... I discovered the Swinging London with my girlfriend Brigitte who just came in England to improve her English. |
