cho Posted March 4, 2005 Report Posted March 4, 2005 Greco is a French actress & singer who was with Miles Davis for a while in the 60s. Just come across a 18 CDs box from France. Anyone has any comments on Greco as a singer? Quote
Claude Posted March 4, 2005 Report Posted March 4, 2005 Her first name Juliette is also worth mentionning http://www.rfimusique.com/siteEn/biographi...raphie_6308.asp Quote

brownie Posted March 4, 2005 Report Posted March 4, 2005 I like Juliette Greco. The singer, the actress, the woman. But I would shy away from getting an 18-CD box of her songs. That box is mainly for fanatics. Her autobiography 'Jujube' was on the best-sellers list in France when it was published in 1993. And what a life she has lived! Even Jean-Paul Sartre wrote a tune for her 'Dans la Rue des Blancs Manteaux' with music by Joseph Kosma! The photo of her with Miles Davis that Bentsy posted was taken shortly before she had a nose job done. That nose job was national news at the time! Quote

cho Posted March 5, 2005 Author Report Posted March 5, 2005 Thanks for the information. Of course, Juliette won hands down on her looks. So long, Buddy. Quote
Claude Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 (edited) Juliette Gréco was in Luxembourg last weekend, where she participated in the local V-Day, a world-wide event to end violence against women. http://www.wort.lu/articles/4556430.html She is also currently touring with jazz accordeonist Jean-Louis Matinier: http://www.enjarecords.com/tourdates.php#68 Edited March 7, 2005 by Claude Quote
