      Hey,

      Thanks to great comps like Transworld Punk Rave Up or the Peace, Love & Poetry series, we now know there were great 60s garage bands all over the world but what about 50s R'n'R?

      I know of 4 great songs composed by French writer, poet and jazz musician Boris Vian and performed by Henri Salvador around 1956-57 (he meant them as a joke but they were brilliant wild rock'n'roll songs).

      I know there were lots of great bands in Mexico: los Locos del Ritmo, los Boppers, los Apson...

      I know of the incredible Tielman Brothers (Indonesian band who had a career in the Netherlands) but they sang in English.

      Any others?
