Françoise Hardy, a French National Treasure, Is Back from the Brink
By Agnès C. Poirier
May 9, 2018
PARIS Bob Dylan refused to go back onstage unless I came to see him immediately, Françoise Hardy recalled in a recent interview. On the evening of May 24, 1966, Mr. Dylans 25th birthday, he was playing his first concert in Paris and wanted nothing more than to see the then 22-year-old French singer, whom he had dedicated a song to but never met.
I went and he agreed to go back on stage, she said. A few months earlier, while in London, Ms. Hardy had turned the heads of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, John Lennon and Brian Jones. Singing in French, English, Italian and German, the shy beauty and talented French songwriter cast a spell on many of her contemporaries and over France for nearly 60 years.

Yes, Sandy Denny, gone far before her time. Fairport and Richard Thompson, a whole other thread.
