    Ms. Bardot is most successful on this album singing sad melodies in french, and I rather enjoy her fifties' jazz take on 'Everybody Loves My Baby'. The paean to 'The Hippies' is really lame, but not any lamer than say, George Harrison's 'Blue Jay Way'. The french, it seems to me, truly misunderstood rock and roll, and the pop music on this album was silly even at the time.

    Of course, at the end of the day, it IS Brigitte Bardot. I catching the original TV special these songs came from back in 1968. Ms. Bardot's sultry voice can carry an awful lot of dreck!

      Interesting LP for Gainsbourg and Bardot european fans. It features tracks unavailable anywhere else :
      - "Comic Strip" is sung in english. But Bardot isn't singing on that song, 'though she's doing a playback of the song in her TV show ; actually it is the english chorist Madeline Bell who is singing with Gainsbourg.
      - "Hippies" sung by Bardot and Sacha Distel wasn't issued on vinyl in Europe at that time, probably due to contractual problems.
      The LP has a mastering defect : certain tracks play too slow (it is obvious on "Bonnie And Clyde" which is a fantastic track, not "lame or silly" at all) and you must pitch them.
