BRIDGE - POUPÉE DE CIRE, POUPÉE DE SON CDEP (POLYSTAR [PSDR-5037], TRATTORIA [MENU.26], 1993) [JP]

Bridge - Poupée De Cire, Poupée De Son CDEP
(Polystar – [PSDR-5037], Trattoria – [Menu.26], 1993) [JP]




A CDEP from Japanese indie pop group Bridge featuring a cover of the popular France Gall ye-ye song! The third track states (Stereolab Mix), but from all that I have read it's just the title -- no involvement from the group Stereolab in the making of the mix.
