Lizzy Mercier Descloux - Debut LP

Parisian poet, painter, actor, and musician, Lizzy Mercier Descloux was an influential character in the New York underground during the late seventies and early eighties. She blazed around the Lower East Side of NYC with her playful, effortlessly cool and loose punk music. Press Color, her first full-length album, was originally released on ZE Records in 1979. Today we present to you our newly remastered reissue of the cult classic as an expanded double LP pressed on Yves Klein Blue wax. The reissue features liner notes by Vivien Goldman and includes an 18x24 poster. Press Color is the first release of our five album series showcasing the impassioned work of Descloux. Available: August 14, 2015

Below, watch an incredible video from 1979 French TV of Mercier Descloux performing “Fire”, one of our favorite tracks on Press Color. The clip also includes a special cameo from Serge Gainsbourg!
