Gainsbourg, Serge: N. 4 LP

Serge's 4th album – and another wonderful gem from his early years! The record's like some of the others from the time, mixing together jazz, Latin rhythms, and all the offbeat existentialism of the postwar Paris scene – all with Gainsbourg's inimitable style, as cool as ever. The record was originally only ever issued as a 10" LP – and it's been wonderfully redone here, with the original cover art. Titles include "Les Cigarillos", "Intoxicated Man", "Les Goemons", "Baudelaire", "Black Trombone", and "Requiem Pour Un Twisteur"
