Apparently a track from my 2009 CD 69 Année Érotique (the music of Serge Gainsbourg) made it onto Une brique dans le ventre, a program on French national TV this month (it starts around 4’50”). Unfortunately, the licensing bastards won’t let us view it in the US- “you find yourself in a country in which the diffusion of this program is not authorized”, it informs me. If anyone is able to view it, and is adept at ripping video from sites like that (they have Firefox plug-ins for that), please let me know…
This is a good time to mention that purchasing the CD is a great way to support the blog. It’s been played on the radio in the US, the UK, Canada, Australia, Japan, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany, and made a few jazz writers’ “best of 2009” lists, supported me through two Europe tours, yada yada yada… if you like the content I’m providing free of charge, please consider it.
Oh, and I also have some extrêmement sexy ladies t-shirts featuring the “soixante-neuf” design from the CD cover. I’m blowing them out, so they’re the same price as the CDs. If you would like one, hit the purchase link and specify t-shirt, color (red or black, with the 69 in gold) and size in the “notes” box.
