In the mid-'60s, sex kitten Brigitte Bardot released a series of mildly popular pop records, the most interesting of which being her collaborations with Serge Gainsbourg. Early on in her singing pursuits, rock video-type films were generated for each of her songs. The tracks on Brigitte Bardot Show serve as a soundtrack to her long forgotten television show, which she produced and which served as a stage for her to perform her hits. The album, re-released on CD by the Japanese label Flavour of Sound, contains 15 songs, five of which are instrumentals. The vocal tracks range from gentle ballads to bizarre psychedelic romps, all with an over-the-top theatricality and sung with a humorous pop assault. For fans of hip obscure French pop there are a half dozen groovy go-go tracks like "Harley Davidson" and "Contact," while for those of us who have long been hopelessly in love with the lovely Bardot, there is the sultry and dreamy "Mister Sun." While there was never any expectation that she would be asked to perform arias at the Paris opera house, her recordings are very fun and certainly entertaining. ~ Zac Johnson

$22.85 Allow me to introduce to you the newest member of the Wellingtons catalogue Heading North For The Winter! We\'re really proud of this one, bursting with nothing short of the best ten songs we could come up with over the past 18 months or so. It was a lot of blood sweat and tears plus some major sleep deprivation in the studio but here it is! We thought we\'d stick with the ten song formula (U.K and Japan releases however have bonus tracks) that we\'ve done with the first two albums. I\'m sure you\'ll agree when you hear it that it\'s our bet effort yet! Everyone who has heard already heard it agrees, so it may just be all down hill from here, but let\'s worry about that later!Allow me to get serious for a second... The producer, Matt Maddock\'s done a great job with the production of this brand new album and the artwork\'s cute as hell right? Thanks to Vicki from Meomi design.In these tough times for record labels we\'re also SUPER excited to inform you all that we\'ve been blessed enough to have struck up record deals in FOUR new countries! We\'ll have a September release on U.K label Lo-Jinx (home of the most excellent powerpop band, Farrah) & Spain\'s Rock Indiana (home of so many great pop and rock records). Then the fabulous U.S label Zip records will follow in October and we\'re also very excited that we\'ll be releasing Heading North For the Winter later this year or early next in Malaysia! Unfortunately the Australian release is a work in progress so you\'ll have to be patient... We\'ll let you know when we confirm that!The album is again out on Thistime Record In Japan (July 9th 2008) and I want to send a big thanks to Fuji, Shizue and Koyo at Thistime records for helping us make the best possible record we could this year and for working hard with us to make this band a ...
