This time it's you who was faster, Jams. :) Good on you ... and Jacques Brel!
You've introduced to some singers I know little about. Thanks.
Haha beat ya Sean! Great stuff eh?
Glad to be of service Brenda
There is some serious Déjà vu happening here.

Ah the great Jacques Brel. I haven't listened to him in ages. I used to have vinyl discs but I should look for CDs. No doubt they have released some.
Deja vu Ardent? I've seen it all before!
His worl is very easily available on CD jmb
Very Frenchy! I couldnt' stop watching his gargantuan Adam's Apple when he sang.
There's a French Pop station and a French classics station on my XM Satellite radio. I bet they play Jacques Brel on it.
I bet they do play Brel (even though he's Belgian!)
