R SolutionMen From Funkle
Serge Gainsbourg Air
Fesh LP
     
The French are not typically known for cracking tapes but the pop duo Air delivered this gem on BBC Radio 1 a while back. Taking a retro approach to the recipe, Air have gone for a rock'n'roll soundtrack. The Beatles go head to head with tracks from Rollerball, Sly Stone leads straight into a samba mode Sinatra. Sprinkle in a few countrymen in the form of Jean Jacques Perrey and Serge Gainsbourg and leave this eclectic brew to simmer....
