Saw Phillipe at DFNW maybe 2010... He did one of the scats I have ever heard live.....

Yeah, I think it was 2010 and he was amazing. I think he surprised a lot of people with his singing. Excellent.

Thank you very much for your contributions so far, everyone. This is a world I know so little about, but want to learn more.

Reading Delaunay's bio tonight - coincidentally came across mention of Tino Rossi. Anyone listen to him much? Favorite albums?

Edit: Just came across Henri Crolla's Minor Swing, youtube, selected by Thomas Dutronc for Jazz Manouche V. 3. Man, that is just too cool.

His album of George Brassens songs is one of my faves.

I've got that album. What a trip. Listening to Le Bistrot now. Without knowing more, brings back memories....Brecht...

Playing catchup - Eddy recommended a wonderful album, p'tit coin de Paradis, Patrick Saussois and Koen de Cauter, another hommage to George Brassens that I didn't know.
