Cigarettes Et Whiskey Et P'tit's Pepees

Old chum A-Bone McCabe forwards some video of Belgian chanteuse Annie Cordy, a popular entertainer in Europe for over 50 ans.  Here she is belting out "Cigarettes et Whiskey et P'tit's Pepees" on French TV in 1957. Turns out "P'tit's Pepees" has nothing to do with poorly endowed Frenchmen -- this sounds to be a cover of the old Country Western standard "Cigarette and Whiskey and Wild Wild Women."

A couple decades later: Annie does a disco / Carmen Miranda bit, "Tata Yoyo," on a 1980 French variety show.

And for our old pals Mark, Xeni and David -- Annie and a puppet pal rock out to "Boing Boing."
