about

Hace ya casi 15 años que se grabó el segundo disco de The Tea Servants para Grabaciones en el Mar. El disco más irreverente de toda su carrera. Steven Munar recuerda perfectamente el momento; recién llegados a Barcelona, con 25 años, con ganas de ser diferentes, de romper esquemas y con el choque que supuso para unos isleños encontrarse en la gran ciudad. Por aquel entonces sus gustos giraban entorno a Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart, Soft Boys, Talking Heads, Xtc... lo que les alejaba totalmente de la música que se hacía en el Estado por aquel entonces.
Es un disco muy energético, con un ritmo frenético casi de principio a fin, con ideas realmente extravagantes e incómodas. Nunca después volvieron a sonar igual.
La remasterización de Francisco Vich hace justicia a una grabación que fue realizada en los comienzos de la explosión independiente y con medios muy humildes. Ahora, por fin, se puede escuchar con la calidad que se merece.
Complementan esta edición 4 bonus track; dos canciones inéditas y dos versiones, una de Iggy Pop y otra de David Bowie que formaban parte del repertorio de la época.

And now for something completely different!

Recorded in the old style... ... more
