Don’t call it a sequel, it isn’t a Part Deux, Pop Psychédélque: Les Extras is simply another slice of fine French Psychedelic Pop from Two-Piers, the label that brought you the groundbreaking compilation Pop Psychédélique in 2021. Les Extras is the perfect partner for the original and brings you a whole new bunch of quite simply brilliant pieces of French Pop and Psychedelic flavours from the 1960’s right up into the 2000s.
Pop Psychédélique: Les Extras features some of the finest French pop divas of the 1960’s and 1970’s such as Jacqueline Taieb, Brigitte Bardot, Christe Laume, Brigitte Fontaine, alongside artists like Marie Laforêt’s wonderful take on the Rolling Stones ‘Paint it Black’, and the brilliant ‘Les Cactus’ by Jacques Dutronc. Fast forward to the 2010’s and we have tracks from the French Psych scene and lush curiousities from Brigitte, Étienne Daho, The Limiñanas and Ricky Hollywood added into the mix. This Record Store Day Vinyl release includes hard to find tracks on vinyl for the first time. French Pychedelic Pop, a scene so joyous you can’t help but fall in love…. Les Extras anyone?
