Le chant de Mallory - Les compagnons de la chanson

Les Compagnons de la chanson were a French vocal group from Lyon, France, founded during World War II. Before 1946, they were part of a larger choir, the Compagnons de la musique. In 1946, they recorded a French language song, 'Les trois cloches' along with Edith Piaf. Rewritten in English as 'The three bells', they managed to reach the UK singles chart in October 1959, peaking at number 21. 

This EP features a cover of the French entry to the 1964 Eurovision Song Contest, 'Le chant de mallory', originally performed by Rachel. Through the years I've seen this single numerous times, but I never saw it this cheap. It was part of an online order of singles which were only €1 each - a price you can't beat.

My collection: 7" single no. 6548
Found: Marktplaats.nl, received 30 November 2021
Cost: €1
Tracks: 'Le chant de Mallory', 'Le refuge de tes bras' / 'Belle petite ville', 'En d'autres mots'
