EL-G - VINYL TOUT PLOIE [VINYL]

Popis - TOUT PLOIE [VINYL]:
EL-G makes a strange mix of French ballads and avant-garde song-writing. A pig-headed approach of the French language and ingenious arrangments are the core business of this dude. Tout Ploie is a compilation of both the best tracks from previously released CDR's and new work. EL-G appears as a sort of modern day miniature version of Serge Gainsbourg on this debut-LP. The female singer, Charlene Darling, who accompanies him throughout the most part of the record only makes this comparison more apt. Gérard has never been afraid to buy records of Lee Hazlewood and late Fleetwood Mac. He extracted the right ingredients from those records and added some genuine French sensuality. "Tout Ploie" is the pop album that had to be made for a long time and doesn't fear experiment with guest appearances of e.g. Ignatz, Phil Todd (Ashtray Navigations), Mim and Foxy De Man. Collaborates with Ghedalia Tazartes.
