Description
Two Tapete Records acts who know and appreciate each other are releasing a split 7" on which they cover each other: Pete Astor and Die Liga der gewohnlichen Gentlemen. While Pete Astor conjures up a heartfelt psychedelic moritat called "Amber Lights" from the DLDGG hit "Alle Ampeln auf Gelb", DLDGG transform the ballad "Like Frankie Lymon" by Astor's former band The Weather Prophets into a Modern Lovers-esque uptempo song including a saxophone solo ("Wie Frankie Lymon"). Fun fact: Pete Astor often spent his summer vacations with his aunt in Pinneberg near Hamburg. Just a few miles away, presumably at the same time (!), one of Die Liga der gewohnlichen Gentlemen was sitting in his room listening to the original version on the Creation Records compilation "Purveyors Of Taste" and of course had no idea that the interpreter and author of The Weather Prophets song, a genuine British (indie) pop star, was spending his summer holidays in the neighborhood. This split 7" somehow closes a circle. The single is limited to 500 copies -
