Bona Dish | The Zaragoza Tapes 1981-82 (CT10Edition LP) - Pink LP
To celebrate Captured Tracks' 10th Anniversary, a limited edition pressing of the vinyl is now available on pink vinyl. Limited to 500 copies.
Bona Dish were a scratchy pop punk group from Hertfordshire villages, brought together by their love of the Velvets, Supremes and each other. They were cool, handsome and gorgeous. The songs are simple, but at the same time complex. The two girls, two boy's line-up added a tension that was both sexual and musically fragile. You felt it might all fall apart any second, but it rarely did. After their "cassette in a tube" ploy worked for John Peel play, the band released a cassette on InPhaze and disbanded not long after. Collected here is a rediscovered gem showcasing the zest and spontaneity that gripped the UK DiY scene of the time, standing up to contemporaries like Television Personalities, The Homosexuals and Marine Girls.
This release marks the first vinyl and CD release for Bona Dish, their complete recorded output compiled and newly mastered.
