I am not visiting a pastry shop, boarding a ‘bateau mouche‘ or viewing one of the wonderful flicks by Truffaut.
Both The Cake and Paris Sisters rank amongst The 10: classic girl groups according to Sarah Boden on Abba to Zappa, a new music slice courtesy of The Observer.
I have to confess I never heard of either band.
According to Sarah, the Paris Sisters (pictured here) got the Phil Spector treatment. They were from San Francisco and the result of their ambitious ‘opera singing’ mother.
As for their look, it is more Parapluies de Cherbourg than anything.
No Bananarama in Sarah’s Top 10 and her taste and selection gets heated criticism from some readers.
My contribution to fluff for the day.
A little fun piece!
