Tuca is a personal favourite musical artist of mine - she is utterly unknown but as I plunged into the investigations into my two main music obsessions of the last few years - sixties/seventies pop from France and Brazil - her name kept coming up. Tuca put out a couple of records in Brazil in the sixties but then decamped to France, fleeing the dictatorship that took particular trouble to crack down...

They become especially grand as the Holiday seasons approach each trying to out do the next. Some of the coolest I have seen have been in the shop windows of London, New York and last but certainly not least, in Paris. Which brings...
Several years ago, my grandparents called me to ask if I'd look something up on the internet for them. As my grandfather started to spell out the url for me, "It's w, w, w, dot...", he was interrupted by my grandmother.

Jean Shrimpton - from the V&A Collection Following up on my post about Françoise Hardy , I thought I'd bring up another gal from the 1960s whose bangs are completely lust-worthy: Jean Shrimpton.
