Gol Gappas

Gol Gappas were quite possibly the best jangle that Él ever had going for it, and as such, it’s quite a terrible shame that all they left was one EP ('Dinner with Nougat’, 1986) and one single ('West 14 / Roman’, 1986) -a grand total of only six songs. Each of these songs are pretty much perfect slices of classic mid-eighties pop, and “West 14”, as well as another, “St. Lucy”, appeared on volume one of Él’s singles compilation 'Bellissimmo!’ in 1993. They sound like a cleaner Bodines. Really great jangle sounds to cherish. [SOURCE: LA VARIETE]
