SERGE GAINSBOURG


SERGE GAINSBOURG
ROCK AROUND THE BUNKER (1975)
320 KBPS

A very controversial album in its time, and still disturbing. Gainsbourg, who during his childhood had to hide from the nazis and their French accomplices, dared to record this rock'n'roll album which mocks the nazis with word plays. He is probably the only person who could do this ... He used the same musicians than in Vu de l'extérieur, but the styles of both albums could not be more different. ... Not his first album to listen, if you are discovering him but still an enjoying experience.

L'HOMME A LA TÊTE DE CHOU (1976)
320 KBPS

Serge Gainsbourg has never been better in establish a concept thematicelly in terms of words and music. Each piece of this wonderful opus has a musical setting that is coherent in it's ensemble. 32 minutes of pure joy and delight. The famous Gainsbourg talking voice over was of course used before in recordings like "Je t'aime moi non plus", "Initiales BB" and the previous concept album "Histoire de Melody Nelson", but never with that panache with the lyrics. "Variations sur Marilou" can resume Gainsbourg's whole catalogue of themes and obsessions. Sit down,forget your presomptions about the often called dirty man of French music and listen to signifiant music by a creatively inspired artist. If you are wondering about the meaning of the lyrics of "Variations sur Marilou", it's actually about woman masturbation. No kidding here,just the truth.
