Product description

Serge Gainsbourg's 1968 studio album "Initials B.B." is a captivating journey through the world of French pop, chanson, and jazz, all infused with Gainsbourg's signature charm and wit. Originally released by Philips Records and later reissued by Mercury Records under Universal Music, this album is a tribute to the iconic French actress and sex symbol Brigitte Bardot, with the opening track "Initials B.B." being a notable highlight.

The album spans a concise yet engaging 32 minutes, featuring 13 tracks that blend various genres, showcasing Gainsbourg's versatility and creativity. From the playful "Comic Strip" to the dramatic "Docteur Jekyll et monsieur Hyde," and the rhythmic "Ford Mustang," each song offers a unique listening experience. The collaboration with Brigitte Bardot adds a layer of intrigue and allure, making this album a standout in Gainsbourg's discography.

"Initials B.B." is not just a collection of songs but a testament to Gainsbourg's ability to weave storytelling, humor, and sophistication into his music. Whether you're a longtime fan of Serge Gainsbourg or new to his work, this album is a delightful exploration of his artistic range and enduring influence on French pop culture.

This is a 2025 Reissue Remastered released as a LP.

How do we keep reviews authentic?

Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.

  • Poor Sound Quality Disappointment

    Sound quality on this version is really poor. What a letdown. I'd never buy it once more.

    The sound quality on this version is really poor. What a letdown. I wouldn't buy it once more.

  • Fair Pressing, Needs Volume

    4 out of 5 stars
    cekinukrarenSeptember 25, 2025United States🇺🇸

    The first two reviews seem way too critical. This pressing sounds pretty good to me. Maybe they got defective copies or something? The mastering here is clearly limited in terms of compression... so yeah, you'll need to crank up the volume a bit... but once you do, it's dynamic and well-balanced. I think it sounds great - but I don't have any other versions to compare it with.
