… I mean, I knew (about) the album, of course, but somehow it’s been mainly ‘Machine Gun’ that’s been on my mind when I think of late Portishead, but man, this whole thing!

Ignoring Serge Gainsbourg’s dodgy old man fantasies there is some very fine music in his 1971 concept album L’histoire de Melody Nelson. Alan Parker is on guitar and he provided some of the best gun for hire guitar breaks on record like “No Regrets” by Walker Brothers and Donovan’s “Hurdy Gurdy Man”.

I wonder how many “song X written as answer to song Y” there have been, and I’d discount ‘diss’ raps because they’re ten a penny. I know “Sweet Home Alabama” has lines suggesting it was written as a counter to Neil Young’s “Southern Man” for example.
This is more laid back, BB King’s “The Thrill is Gone” prompted Don Henley and Glenn Frey to write the Eagles song “After the Thrill is Gone”.
Good to know there’s a name for the phenomenon. Cheers
