    The results are what you would expect given its pedigree. In fact, it's hard to imagine Gainsbourg and company pulling this off any better. [#17, p.85]

    How does such a rich soup of chromosomes and hired help come together? In a tinkly, whispery trinket that deserves a place on the stereo of every right-thinking beatnik.
