Review

This Jane Birkin concert recording from 1987 features most of her favorites from almost two decades of exposure on the French music scene. The sultry vocalist gives an easily convincing reading of "Love for Sale," and reprises plenty of her Gainsbourg favorites -- "Norma Jean Baker," "Ex Fan des Sixties," "Baby Alone in Babylone," and "Le Couteau Dans le Play." Though "Je T'Aime Moi Non Plus" is a notable exclusion, and the band is MOR pap personified, it's a solid performance from the French pop queen. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
