「您需要提取資金嗎？」超市的收銀員這樣問使用提款卡支付購買費用的女性。這個問題在所有類型的企業中越來越頻繁，在背景中隱藏了公司實際擁有資金的成本，例如，對於連鎖商店的分店來說，上述那筆手續的費用相當於他每月結算金額的1.1%。

就算阿根廷的中央銀行發行大面額的紙鈔，也無法降低各行各業的現金使用成本。從加油站到收費站、藥局、繳費公司甚至銀行。所有這些企業都受到經濟的影響，年度通貨膨脹率為47.6%，非正規性為35%，其中90%的交易是現金，物流成本非常高。

上個月，當包括Rapipago和Pago Facil的這些繳費公司（每個月收取900億元披索），威脅要向用戶轉移銀行所收取的佣金時，使用現金的不方便就變得更明顯。Western Union和Pago Facil總經理Maximiliano…

Edith Piaf and Theo Sarapo

Piaf and Sarapo at the Babino

@ 1963  US Pressing

********

This 1963 "set" recorded at the Bobino Theatre in Paris is a VERY SPECIAL recording. In it, there are selections recorded by her "then-boyfriend" Theo Sarapo, by himself, and in duet with her, along with solos of the Great Piaf herself.

It was near the very end of her career, but make no mistake...the lady "still had it" even then, although she was, of course, ill, and also heavily addicted to drugs and booze.

This live recording just "flows" and "breezes" along, wonderfully paced, and simply "full of life". A truly fabulous album...from the songs themselves, the immediacy of the sound, and presence of the Great Lady...AND, Sarapo is no "slouch" either, when it comes to "crooning"!

A wonderful 3/4 hour's entertainment, and also, a great "historical" document of the Great Piaf at the end of her career.

If you are not familiar with Piaf, then you MUST listen to, and get to know her wonderful, deeply moving recordings. There are TWO recordings that I ALWAYS recommend first, right away when I think someone would be interested in this Great Singer.....This One, and also the 30th Anniversary Collection, a two-disc set of all her great hits. These, together, make up a GREAT collection...the one being her best studio work, and this one, a truly WONDERFUL representation of the Great Lady live onstage.
