I was just listening to these unreleased soundtrack bites from the 1969 film Slogan, on the set of which Serge first met his sex-kitten protege and paramour-to-be Jane Birkin. They are smoother than The Island Of Al Jarreau. For whatever reason these songs really remind me of The Go! Team, the great UK band with their Pro Tools and their Pro Keds. Once you get past Go! Team's nostalgia for Seasame Street pattycakin', you find an even stronger nostalgia for Gainsbourg's languid french funk.
