Released in 1971 the album failed to convince both
critics and public but became since the most
revered and influential French album ever made.
Hardcore fans of Melody Nelson include, among
others, Portishead, Beck, Sonic
Youth, Air or Jarvis Cocker. The
album was re-released on Cd in the USA earlier this
year to a huge critical acclaim.
Jean-Christophe Averty's musical film,
featuring both Serge Gainsbourg and Jane
Birkin, reflects
the crazyness of this eccentric video maker, between
pop art and psychedelia. This is a
very rare document not to be missed by music fans! |
