Marc O's mesmerising title "Le Test De La Femme À Barbe" gives us a unique opportunity to hear once more the legendary bassist Dave Richmond collaborating with a french artist since his iconic performances on Serge Gainsbourg's recordings such as ‘Histoire De Melody Nelson’ and ‘Je T’aime…Moi Non Plus’. The idea behind the test is to visually disguise an individual who would tend to abuse their physical advantages to achieve their ends, and then to see what happens. Does his charisma resist the distortion of appearances, in other words, does it come from within? In general, it does not deceive. The song is built with two successive monologues. Two versions of one and the same song. Here, we do not seek to explore the feminine and masculine sides of human nature, but rather, the humanity common to both biological sexes.
