Album Review: Speedy Gonzalez
The mechanisms for self-identification of that band have always interested me. What do they think? It can't be `kill your idols', otherwise their cover versions would not have that boy-scout touch. A lovely collection of everyone's favourites, with Ayers, Dylan, Reed (Lou) and Speedy Gonzalez . My mentor from the record store found it at an exhibition at "Harrys Hafenbazar" (remember?). Now it is mine. The world is a village. cruftily translated from semi-german to semi-english by alex[at]-remove-miles.vmars.tuwien.ac.at
Speedy Gonzalez
Acoustically and lively delivered cover tunes. Essential.
