Serge Gainsbourg – Best Of: Comme Un Boomerang (2022 reissue)

Description

On March 2, 1991 Serge Gainsbourg bowed out and left France orphaned by one of the most important singer-songwriters of French song. Thirty years later, his songs are still with us, proof of their quality. Indeed, beyond the many successes that have marked a career spanning more than thirty years, Gainsbourg’s repertoire is abundantly rich. Always at the forefront of innovation, he has been able to adapt his delicate and classical writing with the most modern musical styles: jazz, reggae, funk … without ever losing his eloquence or his soul. This 2LP is a very limited coloured vinyl (100 in UK) Reviews London Macadam+ R2, ADS -London Macadam+ R2
