Gainsbourg remains the master of chiaroscuro, double meaning and a true poet with caustic irony.
In these eight moving songs, Gainsbourg adopts the figure of the disappointed lover as well as the one of the cynical disillusioned man, accompanied by notes of piano or by a guitar and a double-bass. These original recordings perfectly summarize the first decade of his career.
