Artist: Gilles de Bins Dit Binchois
Franco-Flemish composer who was a contemporary of, and as important as, Dunstable and Dufay.

However, his music gave the identifiable characteristics to what became known as the Burgundian style of music. Binchois'... [+] Read More

Sla er ‘s maandags de krant maar eens... [+] Read More

Artist: Jacques Dutronc
Singer/songwriter Jacques Dutronc gained popularity in his native France with his provocative songs that matched the rebellious spirit of the '60s so well.

Artist: The Raindrops
The Raindrops are, on one level, little more than a footnote in the much broader musical careers of Ellie Greenwich and Jeff Barry. On the other hand, as a studio singing group, they assembled one of the more impressive bodies of popular vocal music of the early '60s to come out of that edifice known as the Brill Building, the early-'60s...
