Miss Yeye
"It looks that men who know how to play the saxophone - she gives her heart and her kisses to anyone who will make her dance ... "
forgotten piece of garage rock yéyé Miss French is from the 45 rpm single sung Jaguars, the masters of instrumental rock from la belle province.
The Jaguars came into being in 1962 in Saguenay on the north shore of St. Lawrence.
The group is composed of: Jean Guy (Arthur Cossette) (guitar), Gilles Morissette (rhythm guitar) Doris Thibault (bass) Reynold Morissette (drums).
As in France, Quebec then saw a time of instrumental rock and the Jaguars are playing tunes inspired by the Shadows. The group is fortunate to have among its members an outstanding guitarist Jean Guy Cossette occurs in in night clubs. They recorded a debut album for the label in 1964 Sunflower, the melancholy Dead Sea ideal for slow dancing. The B side Supersonic Twist with echo effects is in the tradition of the great instrumental themes about space initiated by the Tornadoes.
Jaguars Supersonic twist
The disc is pressed on the same label REO for the rest of Canada and distributed in USA by Dot.
The 45 towers are selling well and their record company Sunflower offers them to record an album. We will return on this record the two titles of their first 45 laps and covers of standards like Maria Helena exotic or Watermelon Man songs but also more sophisticated as the tortured Arvida That which we must more than Shadows Link Wray. The second 45 laps
reproduced the same pattern as the first with a slow rock Solitude where the air accurately reflects this sentiment coupled and a tonic and innovative Jaguar Shake.
A second LP will follow even in 1965, The Jaguars Vol. 2 with some gems like Guitar experimental jet or Honky Tonk, but unlike the first album the disc does not sell!
In mid sixties it is now the English beat groups that lead the dance by systematically shade for instrumental groups, the same mediocrity! to survive you have to sing! The Jaguars record
then Miss yéyé (an instrumental theme of the same name appears on their second 33 laps with no obvious link)
It seems to be some Tommy Manderson is on vocals,
spontaneous interpretation is sometimes rough but lacks maturity, other musicians to vocalize the Beatles music instead eyeing the side of the Mersey as the St. Lawrence!
The influence of the four boys from Liverpool is still felt on the B side a rather nice ballad Beware
While the Jaguars were a leading group of the instrumental, they will suffer the same fate as our Champions Socks or separate at the indifference of young people who now prefers the British beat combo
Jean Guy We find another group in the legendary Canadian Sinners this guitarist emeritus after a few solo escapades endorse his jacket Jaguars synthetic skin from the '90s to revive her pearls instrumental
