This broadcast is about Serge Gainsbourg (1929-1991). Fifty years ago, his epic album ‘L’histoire de Melody Nelson’ was released; thirty years ago, the icon died, who is still a great influence on contemporary chansonniers and pop artists. Part 1 of a triptych.
Featuring Britta Maria & Maurits Fondse, Jane Birkin, Brigitte Bardot, Juliette Gréco, Régine, Catherine Sauvage, Isabelle Aubret, Liesbeth List & Su Kramer, Nana Mouskouri (!) and special recordings of the fascinating Gainsbourg herself.
