Thanks for your message.

I worte an article, and, even if I got an understandable english, I don't kown if I can publish it, that's why i would love if you read it and say how we will do!

So here it is:

Serge Gainsbourg's "Moi m'aime Bwana" (Unrealesed 1991 blues album demos)

Serge Gainsbourg was a French, songwriter, actor, and obviously a singer. He's considerer as the most important French singer of alltime.

The 2 March 1991, "Gainsbarre" die in his bed: with this death one last album will be doomed too: Moi M'aime Bwana.

On autumn 1989, a journalist interview Serge at his house,and a make a joke: - Do you like French singer ? - Only myself ("Moi même", wrote like: "Moi m'aime") And the journalist with an african accent said "Moi m'aime, Bwana!" Then Serge reply: - How do you spell that ?"

Years later, the journalist learn that this would be the album's title. (Some magazine also called it "Christian's Name's Christian")In an interview of one of his closet friend, Aude Turpault, we learn that; overwise that he wrote the album, he recorded on tapes piano demos: "Yeah, he played things on piano, there were no lyrics, or on paper sheets [...] the main character was named Abigail. A couplet said "Abigail, telle qu'en elle-même" (Abigail, like in herself), and her soul that goes and came back. Some things were really funky and a bit jazzy but, except that, I remember nothing. -He recorded some demos on tapes ? What's happend to them ?[...] Philippe Lerichomme probably got them.

Around 1 week before his departure for the "Nouvelle-Orléans", Serge died .There's no book, no article, no interview about this unrealsed album, the only things we know is that: The album would be a Blues album, with a main character (Like in "Histoire de Mélodie Nelsone"), and funky (Probably like on Love On The Beat/You're Under Arrest), and that songs were written. The demos were not publish on "L'intérgale de Serge Gainsbourg" because the discs were made before "Moi M'aime, Bwana".The tapes are probably with Philippe Lerichomme, his manager, and will be realeased soon I do think.

I even got all my sources:

So, that's all, thank for reading that ^^
