Is it sure it was Dougie Wright ????? And Herbie Flowers HAS NEVER PLAYED on STUDIO's cessions but : DAVE RICHMOND who had his cspecial sound on his Black Burn Bison.

This is my Dad 'Dougie Wright' on drums. He was the original drummer on Gainsbourg's recordings and was invited with the other original musicians who recorded with Gainsbourg to re-unite for this gig. The other guys...Herbie Flowers (Bass), Vic Flick (Guitar), Big Jim Sullivan (Guitar).

Marvomat!

Your dad is my favourite drummer of all time! (Alongside Mitch Mitchell!) Glad to finally know who played on Histoire de Melody Nelson! I wish I'd known about this gig. Cheers, Tom

I was there and it was terrible. Cocker mumbling, reading from a piece of paper, didn't lift his eyes to the audience once. He looked like he couldn't be bothered.

Have you ever seen some Gainsbourg TV clips where he is doing the exact same things?

[hagicomplex]

Great stuff, thanks.

You forgot Vannier, who's maybe, probably in fact, THE genius around.

[watoowatootheband]

Gainsbourg was a god before, with, and after Vannier

[zeguitarman]

why after ?? Vannier is still alive and well i just saw him in paris next sundy in the ' cité dela musique ' his talking was great !! he is a music genius

[DESMYTTER]

[carnationsoul]
