A juggler of words and melodies, Serge Gainsbourg has left his mark in many districts of Paris. If Lucien Ginsburg's childhood takes place on rue Chaptal, the young man will later discover the left bank. Marrying all musical mutations, the singer follows its geography: Milord l'Arsouille, Trois Baudets, Mars Club, Calavados, Bus Palladium, Palace, Casino de Paris, Zénith… From the early 1960s to the late 1990s, no box, no restaurant, no bar was foreign to him. From Castel to the Élysée-Matignon, from Bus to Gibus, from the Alcazar to the Bains Douches, Gainsbourg was of all tribes. Prince of poets, he was also that of Parisian night.
