Following the global success of the song 'Je t'aime moi non plus' and inspired by his new muse and partner Jane Birkin, Serge Gainsbourg decided to 'get down to business.' It was with the collaboration of a very young musician, Jean-Claude Vannier, that the legendary album *Histoire de Melody Nelson* came into being. This opus would be hailed as one of the most remarkable achievements in orchestral pop worldwide. This album is available as a 2CD+DVD, 2LP, LP, and 7-inch single.
