I don't know what was more subversive on Serge's part, doing an album lashing out at the Nazis or doing an album about the life of a serial killer. Or even "Lemon Incest". Sure does make "Je T'Aime Moi Non Plus" seem tame by comparison.

Not to mention a concept LP about the joys of sex/merdaing/farting.
And a songcycle about an underage groupiegirl.
See the Je T'aime movie he directed. Wow.

What's the deal with that movie, Ian? I've heard so much about it, but can't find it available to buy.

Interesting. The album for that movie sells on Amazon for over $50, must be only a few copies left unsold in this world.

The film he scored with Anna Karina, Anna, is amazing too.

I gotta see some of these movies he did, man. I heard the soundtrack to Anna was something ELSE.

I have the separate CD's.
Check this out from the Anna soundtrack. Anna Karina singing Rollergirl. I used to have a band called Rollergirl and I used this cut, in it's entirety, as entrance music for our live shows.

I've heard that! Heard it on a compilation of French rock tracks. Serge features prominently on them.

Man I'd kill for some Serge vinyl. Pressings of his stuff must be REALLY hard to find.

Now they are. Thank God I was hipped to him before the trendoid wave of the last 10 or so years. I've managed to keep all the Serge vinyl I acquired cheaply in the early 90's.

'Sous le soleil exactement' as sung by Anna Karina is my favorite Gainsbourg track.

Does any of you have that album he made with Isabelle Adjani, Pull Marine? I would love to hear that.

I've not heard that album. I can't even lay claim to having heard 90% of the man's work. But I'm working on that. I'm planning on spending $250 for his complete works box set.

Percussions without a doubt. Love em all, though. The Couleur Cafe comp is maybe the most groovy and listenable in some ways.

You don't have the box set of the complete recordings, do you?
