On 21 October, the Barbican in London will feature Jean-Claude Vannier playing the music of Serge Gainsbourg‘s Histoire de Melody Nelson & L’Enfant Assassin Des Mouches, with special guests Jarvis Cocker, Badly Drawn Boy, Mick Harvey, Gruff Rhys & Laetitia Sadier.
“On the 21st October Finders Keepers and Andy Votel will play a key role in the assemblage of a 40 piece orchestra, a 30 piece choir and one of the finest British rhythm sections from the annals of rock history for a one-off special event which fans of conceptual Gallic psych-rock probably never thought they’d experience in this mortal lifetime.”

We enter the double digits with Podcast No. 10, which features a few unfamiliar faces. We’ve got Maurice Zanini who’s not sure what he wants and Moïra who praises love above all (and doesn’t like goodbye letters). The elusive Les Firemen warns us of fire hazards and Claude François throws in the cover. Last but not least, there’s the smooth Nancy Holloway and part-time rocker Danyel Gérard.
Playlist
Maurice Zanini – Tu veux ou tu veux pas
Moïra – Tant qu’il y aura l’amour
Les Firemen – Attention
Claude François – Dis-lui
Nancy Holloway – Tu n’es pas venu
Danyel Gérard – D’où reviens-tu Billie Boy ?
