Samedi, Dimanche et fetes - Carene Cheryl

Isabelle Morizet became known in the mid-Seventies as Carene Cheryl, singing romantic songs. When the years progressed she abandoned this pseudonym, and started calling herself Karen Cheryl, recording disco-oriented material. Using her real name she started presenting programmes on the French national radio stations and on French TV. 

Back in 1976, she was quick to realize the potential of Abba's 'Mamma Mia'. She recorded a version of the song and stuck it on the B-side of this single, 'Samedi, Dimanche et fetes', which managed to chart in Belgium, peaking at number 23. Whether it was a hit in France remains unknown to me.
