Vamps Et Vampire
If Pitchfork reviewed the album, it might go something like this: As if the world needed another compilation album of Serge Gainsbourg covers, British ensemble Various Artists have swooped in with "Vamps Et Vampire - The Songs Of Serge Gainsbourg." It's like a musical love letter to the French provocateur, but with a British accent. The album kicks off with a cheeky rendition of "Bonnie And Clyde" by the always enigmatic Jarvis Cocker. His dulcet tones effortlessly capture the playful, yet dangerous nature of the original. And let's not forget the sultry sounds of Beth Ditto on "Initials B.B.," giving the track a modern twist while still paying homage to the original. But it's the unexpected gems on this album that truly shine. Enter Kate Tempest's haunting reinterpretation of "The Ballad of Melody Nelson," a track that will send shivers down your spine. And who could forget the surprising collaboration between the legendary Brian Eno and the up-and-coming Arlo Parks on "You're Under Arrest"? Overall, "Vamps Et Vampire" is a delightful romp through the world of Serge Gainsbourg, with each artist putting their own unique spin on his iconic songs. It's a must-listen for fans of both Gainsbourg and the British music scene. So grab your beret, pour yourself a glass of wine, and let the seductive sounds of Various Artists transport you to a smoky Parisian cabaret. Sant!
