Françoise Hardy, "Tous les garçons et les filles"

In case you were wondering about Noel Fielding’s jumper on the “Dessert Week” episode of GBBO, it’s the front cover of UK magazine OZ, issue 16, November 1968, by Martin Sharp. A trippy interpretation of the Magic Theatre from Herman Hesse’s then-hip novel Steppenwolf.
