I was ignorant of this French dance and its songs before receiving the Les Moineaux de Paris recording Javas. Then I discovered I had a few more. (Les Moineaux de Paris, Charles Trenet, Édith Piaf, Richard Galliano, Léo Ferré, Ibrahim Maalouf/ Juliette Gréco) Playlist in Comments.

Thanks for introducing me to this, Patrick - I was also ignorant of the dance, which was apparently considered less than respectable by some establishments due to men often placing their hands on the buttocks of their partner while dancing:) You learn something every day!
Yes, scandalous! I didn't come across a photo of said practice though. Cheers and thanks for listening, Simon!
Cool Cover art. Très amusant.
Merci! And thanks for listening!
Fresh and different! Thank you Patrick! :-)
Yes, fresh to me too! Thanks for listening, Maria.
