Au Revoir
I am leaving for vacation France on Thursday and thought it would be a good time to post this edit of a 1968 Serge Gainsbourg song. This cut was written for the soundtrack of the classic film La Pacha. I have no idea what he is saying, but apparently it is a funeral speech at the burial of an asshole and there are no holds barred. Let me know if there if something fun going on in Nice this weekend!

Hey LeBaron,
I love your blog. I live in New York and wanted to know of any parties you approve of here in the city. I can't find any place spinning music like this. I may have to take it upon myself.
best and have a nice vacation,

To Tom M.: Check out Ella @ 9 Avenue A (Corner East Houston) on Wednesday nights. The Boogie Brothers know their funk. Great mix of cheezy old school funk, soul, and disco played in a decadent decor.

if someone is interested, here is my own translation,
i did my best but my english level is far to be perfect
listen to the organs,
they play for you,
it is awesome,
this tune here,
i hope you like it
it's quite beautiful no.. ?
..it's the requiem for an idiot
- Yeahh ! -
i composed it especially for you
to your memory..
..of miscreant !
it's pretty theme don't you think so ..?
..similar to yourself, silly bugger !
Here are the organs which start doing this again
It's necessary to you to learn this tune here by heart
that you have not at all the least hesitation,
about the requiem,
for an idiot !
What (!) you're looking to me, you don't appreciate me ?
But what's there is inside,
which don't pleases to you
To me it's the same, that please you or not
i play it to you again, poor idiot !

On your pale face,
To the jail's walls,
