Product description

Serge Gainsbourg's 1973 album "Vu de l'extérieur" is a captivating journey into the personal and artistic evolution of one of France's most iconic musicians. As his tenth studio album and second concept album following "Histoire de Melody Nelson," this release offers a unique glimpse into Gainsbourg's life and creative process. The album blends genres such as chanson, variété française, French pop, French jazz, and French house, showcasing his versatility and innovative spirit.

With a runtime of just 28 minutes, "Vu de l'extérieur" is a concise yet powerful collection of tracks that delve into themes of transience and introspection. Songs like "Je suis venu te dire que je m'en vais" and "Vu de l'extérieur" highlight Gainsbourg's signature lyrical depth and melodic charm. The album's playful and sometimes provocative titles, such as "Panpan Cucul" and "Des Vents Des Pets Des Poums," reflect his characteristic wit and irreverence.

Recorded under Universal Music Division Mercury Records, this album marks a transitional period in Gainsbourg's career, where he strips away his usual cynical persona to reveal a more vulnerable and introspective side. The result is a body of work that feels deeply personal and authentically Gainsbourg. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to his music, "Vu de l'extérieur" is a compelling listen that underscores Serge Gainsbourg's enduring influence on French music.

This LP was released in 2025.

Judging by the dead wax markings:Matrix / Runout: Disc1 - Side 1 : 0600753718xxxx452A MPOMatrix / Runout: Disc1 - Side 2 : 0600753718452B MPOMatrix / Runout: Disc2 - Side 1 : MPO 0600753718513 AMatrix / Runout: Disc2 - Side 2 : MPO 0600753718513 BSo, i guess it's pressed by MPO...I couldn't update the release due to a clash with another Gainsbourg release.The audio quality is fantastic on both records. It's crisp and detailed. The discs are super quiet. A top-notch édition. BACK TO BLACK has really outdone themselves this time. Gainsbourg merrits it for one of his greatest albums. His vocals are at their peak here.
