Gainsbourg, Serge: L' Etonnant Serge Gainsbourg LP

C$46.99
Availability: In stock

Very early work from Serge Gainsbourg – but still every bit as wonderful as ever! The tracks have Serge singing with small jazz combo arrangements by Alain Gouraguer – tight and groovy, maybe not as funky as later work, but still with an odd twist that shows that he was apart from the crowd, even early on in his career! The arrangements mix together flute, piano, percussion, and a bit of guitar – working through rhythms that range from lightly Carribbean, slightly Latin, and sadly jazzy. 10 tracks in all – including "Les Femmes C'Est Du Chinois", "Personne", "Viva Villa", "Chanson De Maglia", "Le Sonnet D'Arvers", "Le Rock De Nerval", and "En Relisant Ta Lettre".
