Flash track of the day: Serge Gainsbourg 'Ballade de Melody Nelson'
Serge Gainsbourg - Histoire De Melody Nelson (1971)
Did you know that Trip Hop was invented in France in the early 70ies? If not, listen to this incredible concept album. I've listened to this record maybe a hundred times and I love all the music on it, but I still don't get the strange story of Melody. 🙃 Do you? This is a new mastering from the original master tapes from 2016. Comes in a gatefold jacket including a second LP with outtakes called "Les Sessions Melody Nelson". 🚀
Fun fact: this album was a very important inspiration during the production of this album somewhere in french nowhere land.
