This is a strange album. It is France Gall’s psychedelic record, since it was obligatory for all musicians to release one during the late-1960s. I haven’t heard many others from French musicians, except for Bonnie & Cylde by Gainsbourg and Bardot, so I don’t know how prevalent the trend was over there. But I hope there are more of them, because this is astronomically cheesy and leaves me wanting more (it’s only 31 minutes long, an ideal album length). You can probably get some idea of what it is going to sound like just by looking at the artwork, which is a ridiculously typical late-’60s psychedelic album cover.
Being a France Gall album, it is not all psychedelic pop; there are, as always, some extremely cheesy string-based pop songs, and I think that is part of its appeal. It’s very fun, and there are a few S. Gainsbourg-penned songs here, which is always good.
