Serge Gainsbourg's remarkable pop hits are best represented on Comic Strip,
an indispensable set collecting 20 tracks recorded between 1966 and
1969. In addition to the lushly erotic "Je T'Aime...Moi Non Plus" -- Gainsbourg's best-known record -- Comic Strip includes the title track and "Bonnie and Clyde," his collaborations with Brigitte Bardot,
as well as "Initials B.B.," a sweeping paean to his duet partner, "the
most beautiful woman on earth." Other highlights include "Chatterton" (a
bouncy celebration of suicide), "Torrey Canyon" (a prescient warning
against threats to the environment), and the self-explanatory "Soixante
Neuf Année Érotique" ("69 Erotic Year").
