22x2. Je me souviens.
Dans la boutique de René, l'disquaire disparu, il y avait toujours, à côté des bacs de disques,
des tonnes de catalogues. De jazz surtout. De blues aussi. C'est dans l'un d'eux qu'un jour,
le feuilletant, je suis tombé en arrêt sur cette pochette. Avec ce nom. Hound Dog Taylor
and the Houserockers. Attends un peu j'me disais, les yeux brillants, hound dog hound dog...
René, levant le nez, de son comptoir : "Ce n'est pas c'que tu crois, p'tit gars. C'est encore mieux.
Je t'le commande ?" Ces deux trois phrases, c'était la rengaine d'sa vie à René, disquaire
disparu.

22x2. I remember.
In late René's boutique, missing record dealer, there was always, next to the records,
tons of catalogues. Jazz, especially. And blues. It is in one of them that one day,
turning some pages over, I stopped and stared at this cover. With this name. Hound Dog Taylor
and the Houserockers. Wait a bit, I told myself, bright brilliant eyes, hound dog hound dog...
René, raising the eyes, over its counter: " It ain't what you believe, lil' man. It's still better.
I order it to you? " these two three sentences were like the personal theme tunes of late René, record
dealer, missing person.
