So sadly, the new Outkast album that was Plan A for Assray's VD gift is not yet out in France. But the 6.99 rack at FNAC was stacked with some interesting choices for Plan B. I had a pile of about 10 that I whiddled down to 2. The final results: Jean Ferrat chante Aragon (chanson francaise from the 70s and words by one of the last great French poets) for the "rrrrrromantic side", complemented by James Brown: Sex Machine. I thought it was a pretty good pair.
