Comme un Boomerang: Best Of Gainsbourg is a 2011 career-spanning compilation released to mark the 20th anniversary of Serge Gainsbourg's death. It serves as a comprehensive introduction to his "shape-shifting" musical journey, moving from early jazz-influenced chanson to psychedelic pop, reggae, and electronica. Critics generally view the album as a definitive retrospective that prioritises his musical genius over his scandalous public persona. Highlights the "stunning pop" and argues that the compilation persuasively proves his musical canon is more important than his notorious reputation.
