Born 17/12/1946, Menilmontant, France.Philippe was discovered when she was around the age of 17; it has variously been reported that at the time she was a disc jockey in a Paris nightclub called Twenty-One discotheque or that she was working in a record shop by day and as an exotic dancer at night. At any rate, she began releasing discs in 1964 under the direction of Paul Mauriat, arranger for Charles Aznavour, and famed in the U.S. a few years later for his huge easy-listening instrumental hit "Love Is Blue." Mauriat also co-wrote a couple of Philippe's discs, which went all over the map as far as '60s pop went.

You just can't go wrong with Annie 'Yes, I Look Like Phoebe Buffay From "Friends"' Phillippe. She's almost up there with France Gall, as far as my personal yé-yé pantheon goes... thanks for these!
