AIN'T I'M A DOG

It just occurred to me that there have been a disproportionate amount of black and white images in recent posts, so I figured that I'd find a really nice looking color photo. Why Brigitte Bardot came to mind instead of a waterfall I have no clue. But I'm sticking to that image because A) The waterfall doesn't have any records out, and B) I'd be a liar if I said that I've never thought of Bardot for something other than her music. Be that what it may, bow wow.

BARDOT DEPOT

Fuck. Just a quick listen to a Brigitte Bardot song, that's all it was going to be. It was okay, one more can't hurt. An hour and a half later I'm reminding myself to limit casual clicks. When I can get all wrapped up for an hour and a half of Brigitte Bardot's music, I'm spending way too much time online.

HIPSTER MEAT, BUT I LIKE IT TOO

Say what you will. Go ahead, get it out of the way. (Blabbady blah blah blah.) As I was about to say, I rarely listen to Serge Gainsbourg, and have a general impression of him as a total asshole. But, you know what? He did a lot interesting stuff, a lot, without ever kicking rock 'n' roll ass. Dude barely raised his voice. Which might normally be terms for exclusion here. He did have relationships with beautiful women. Some might consider that bonus points. The real reason why, asshole or not, I marvel at the dude's whole schtick? He made records with Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot...and Nico..and Rita Marley. Landslide. He's in.

L.L.COOL S

Compared to Serge Gainsbourg fans, the French, or even your average hipster, I know very little about Serge Gainsbourg, and I like it that way. He's always been just an often referenced acclaimed musician. A once controversial, disheveled guy, who didn't give a shit, was big in France, and knew how to charm the ladies. (Which of course, makes him a perfect candidate for a post.) And one thing that can be said about the French, when they do unremarkable looking and off color, they do it right. Dude had style. When it comes to male swagger, the French got Gainsbourg, and we get Charlie Sheen burning bowling shirts. America has yet to find a way to mix Bernard Herrmann and Johnny Thunders.

Here's a few, the first four from soundtracks, which were the impetus for my buckling. A couple of them kinda remind me of Ennio Morricone, but that might just be the soundtrack thing.
