Salut Les Copains (radio Program)
''Salut les copains'' was a famous French variety pop music radio program broadcast between 1959 and 1969, from Monday to Friday for 2 hours (5 to 7 pm) on French radio station ''Europe 1''. It was known to have originally promoted and launched the success of the French musical genre of yé-yé. Background The program was created by Jean Frydman and presented by Frank Ténot and Daniel Filipacchi on ''Europe 1'' and was launched on 19 October 1959. The program enjoyed a huge following, with a survey saying more than 40% of French youth between 12 and 15 years listened to it at its peak season. The name of the program is taken from a 1957 song by Gilbert Bécaud called "Salut les copains". The lyrics had been co-written by Bécaud and Pierre Delanoë. Delanoë at the time was the director of programming on ''Europe 1'' and named the program after the song. The program, initially (and for a brief period) a weekly broadcast, was soon turned into a five-days-a-week show. The prog ...

Yé-yé
''Yé-yé'' () (''yeyé'' in Spanish) was a style of pop music that emerged in Western-Southern Europe in the early 1960s. The French term "''yé-yé''" was derived from the English "yeah! yeah!", popularized by British beat music bands such as the Beatles. The style expanded worldwide as the result of the success of figures such as French singer-songwriters Sylvie Vartan, Serge Gainsbourg and Françoise Hardy. Yé-yé was a particular form of counterculture that derived most of its inspiration from British and American rock and roll. Additional stylistic elements of ''yé-yé'' song composition include baroque, exotica, pop, jazz and the French ''chanson.'' History The movement had its origins in the radio program (loosely translated as "hello mates" or "hello pals"), created by Jean Frydman and hosted by Daniel Filipacchi and Frank Ténot, which first aired in December 1959. The phrase "''Salut les copains''" dates back to the title of a 1957 song by Gilbert Bécaud and Pier ...
