FST 001 Bazooka Cain   -  Viele Grüße

 

There was a time when the world was full of sunny Sundays, when the Italian Riviera was the hottest spot, when Catherine Deneuve was considered the most desirable woman in the world, only surpassed by the new sensibility of Jean Seberg, a time between Gainsbourg and Mantovani, between the Champs Elysées and Saint Tropez. Bazooka Cain have preserved this time musically as well as stylistically. Viele Grüsse" is their debut album, and one of the most appealing 60's albums recorded in the 90's. Now in their eleventh year, the quartet, featuring German/Spanish singer and author MARCEL VEGA, is probably the sole gentlemen band that can claim the word elegance their own.
"They are cosmopolitan and polyglot - in other words: convincingly smart! At home in the world of popular music they present an exciting selection of sounds: chanson, beat, orchestral crooning and much more. Kindred spirits with Joe Dassin, Momus and Bill Pritchard they have a talent for exquisite and piquant entertainment. The lyrics, sung in German, French, Spanish and English tell a story of life's and love's twists and turns; euphoria, tragedy, and bitter sweet melancholy described with charm and finesse.
