"Love that lovage, baby"

Of all the finds in my evercontinuing search for sexy/sexual music, this album is so far the gem in my collection. I discovered it about three years back, when information about it was much harder to find... (before wikipedia came of age).

Here's the original link where I found out about it.

Here's the wikipedia entry for the album


...for the band/project

Featuring the participation of homeboy Montreal DJ Kid Koala

...and for the creator behind it all.



Here are a few samples you can listen to or download.

Stroker Ace



And here's an interesting little factoid that I just discovered while researching for this post and that now makes me feel like a really sophisticated insider: It turns out the album cover is a pastiche of Serge Gainsbourg's second album, published in 1959.



He wrote and published in 1969 what, as far as I know, could be considered the first ever widely played sexy/sexual song (God bless the French!) titled: Je t'aime... moi non plus ...which literally translates as "I love you... me neither"

Here it is for your listening (or downloading) pleasure:

Je t'aime... moi non plus - Jane Birkin & Serge Gainsbourg
