A Mama's boy in shorts... I knew early on I had a prettier mother than others and hanged-on pretty much to her skirts in the early days (see, I was a premature born child and almost didn’t make it so… naturally she cherished her first born child she almost lost, having previously lost an unborn girl the year before to my dad’s carelessly draggin’ her to a mountain tour! We had a special bond… ); I also sensed these were special times and golden days during my diplomat dad’s career, never to return : it was a GREAT time then livin’ in Singapore 👦🏻🐒🐉🩳🚲❤️🇸🇬❗️#singapore🇸🇬 #singapour #singapore #singapourboy #momasboy #orchardroadsingapore #motherandson #singaporeschool #singaporeschoolboy #yamahaschool #yamahaschoolofmusic (à Orchard Road) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUGlGF3ItkM/?utm_medium=tumblr

RIP Jean Paul Belmondo (1933-2021): I don’t think I’m overstating when I say the French New Wave of Cinema influenced the world and particularly the early mods, hence the Original Modernists and the "Absolute Beginners" in the late 1950’s, igniting one of the decades we all love and are nostalgic about, a golden era : from the golden fifties to the silver sixties… And Bebel was one of it’s absolute icons, the Ace-Face of the "Nouvelle Vague" 📽🎞⭐️🇫🇷❗️😢#breathless #àboutdesouffle #jeanpaulbelmondo #frenchnewwavecinema #frenchnouvellevague #absolutebeginners #absolutebeginner #originalmodernists #originalmodernistfashion #originalmodernist #frenchstar #frenchsuperstar🇨🇵🌟 #newyorkheraldtribune #unefemmeestunefemme #ledoulos #lestribulationsdunchinoisenchine #lhommederio #lhommederio1964 #soitbelleettaistoi #pierrotlefou #taxipourtobrouk #peursurlaville #unsingeenhiver #lecerveau #lemagnifique (à Neuilly-sur-Seine, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTfjnlWgPpA/?utm_medium=tumblr

Bye Bye Don Everly, so sad : the Everly Bros are my absolute favorite rock’n’roll duo, thee original blue print for me; their harmonies went on to influence the Fab Four and especially the Hollies, which in turn influenced the whole of 60’s Pop, from British Beat to Sunshine Pop; I love the Everlys (RIP Don 🎸🎼🎙⭐️ Jan. 19th/ 1939 - Aug. 21st/ 2021, 7 years after Phil on Jan. 3rd/ 2014 😢) 🎸🎙📀⭐️🎼#ripdoneverly #ripdoneverly💔 #doneverly #everlybrothers #everlybrotherschildhoodhome #everlybrotherstribute #byebyelove #cathysclown #hardhardyear #problems #wakeuplittlesusie #wakeuplittlesuzi #dontrunandhide #twoyanksinengland #doneverly #manwithmoney #allihavetodoisdream (à Brownie, Muhlenberg County, Kentucky) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTACCwaNQNk/?utm_medium=tumblr

"Charlie Is My Darling", the Stones movie that should’ve been an answer to the Beatles’ "Hard Day’s Night" in the mid-sixties but never was : originally a Jazz drummer (never a rock’n’roll drummer! ) hence his subtle style in rock drumming full of timing, economy and restreint, never overdoing and flamboyant (as opposed to the Who’s Keith Moon! ) Charlie was not the oldest Stones, he became the oldest when older original member, Bill Wyman quit… but he was the first Stones to go after Rolling Stones’ founder Brian Jones; RIP Charles Robert Watts (June 2, 1941 - August 24, 2021) 😢🥁#charliewatts #charliewattsorchestra #charliewattsdrums #charlieismydarling #charliewattsphotography #charliewattsquintet #rollingstonesoriginal #bluesincorporated (à Islington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CS_ooD5Afmu/?utm_medium=tumblr

Covid holiday part 2 : the hippy village of Trentemoult, near the port of the same name beside the French city of Nantes, is one colorful town much like Sausalito Heliport near San Francisco bay… (no wonder, Agnès Varda, Nantes native Jacques Demy’s wife, also a filmmaker in her own right, shot a documentary movie of this flower-power village port during the couple’s journey in California : "Uncle Yanco" in 1967 ) 📽🎞🏡 🌺🌸🌼🌻 #trentemoultvillage #trentemoultstreetart #trentemoultnantes #agnèsvarda #jacquesdemy #uncleyanco #uncleyancomovie #uncleyanco #sausalitovillage #sausalitocalifornia #sausalito #trentemoultstyle #1967 (à Village De Trentemoult) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSw8x9BNDMz/?utm_medium=tumblr

My current Asian favorite is Douyin (original Chinese Tik Tok name! ) ⭐️star : 李小野 (Li Xiaoye) "the lovely girl with a great smile” also nicknamed "Happy Smile” : she’s adorable, her little video snippets are pranks she throws on her friends and she always comes up with a laff 😂and her smile is devastating 😀 always putting everyone in a good mood. She’s also a lovely street fashion model for the millenials and Gen. Z 💝💖… She looks Korean, but she’s apparently Chinese from Guang Zho. A refreshing change from the usual Westrn Bimbos with sillicone breasts and butts, and collagene plastic faces… 😉 Love her now! #lixiaoye #lixiaoye❤️⚡ #douyin #happysmile #happyface #李小野 #thelovelygirlwiththecroocketsmile a great smile (à Guangzhou City ,China) https://www.instagram.com/p/CStmeAbgqO1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Groups!!! I can’t emphasize enough the power that bands have (especially garage-bands ) for me; it helped me lift my spirits and live thru dull, boring and sometimes depressing times, pushed me to carry and move on… some examples here :🎸🎤🎹🥁💥🎶✊❗️#garagebands #groupsounds #garagepunkunknowns #theseeds #thewho #theaardvarks #questionmarkandthemysterians #thespiders #theknaves # (à Garageland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSrX6UAtX0H/?utm_medium=tumblr
