The Aristocrats with Primuz Chamber Orchestra

I think this is the best combination of a hard rock band with an orchestra (pace Metallica and Deep Purple fans). This is stunning integration, and the whole album is a corker.

Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot - Bonnie and Clyde

The irrepressible Gainsbourg and the stunning Bardot. And a charmingly bonkers backing track. I reckon Serge is amongst the most talented musician, composer and epically rogue to have been largely ignored by us Brits until recently.

A true babe hound.

Recorded by Todd Rundgren to let Fee Waybill know exactly how he wanted Fee to do the vocals.
