Bontempi, Marcel
Crawfish, Troubles, Cats & Ghosts
With the subtitle "The (second) single compilation 2015 - 2021" this record is released exactly 10 years after the first, the extremely successful Witches, Spiders, Frogs & Holes album. At this moment, most people in our retro scene have common knowledge and informed opinions about this strange musical alchemist known as Mr. Marcel Bontempi. His phenomenal career, from the debut of 1960s-beat band The Montesas in 1998 to his 2013 "Monster" solo hit "Dig A Hole" (on Sleazy Records), has seen Marcel's star rise ever higher and his popular and clever Recordings were grabbed by an ever-growing fan base (SOLD OUT!). Live stage performances by Marcel & his friend "Friday", the bubbly Miss Ira Lee, and Marcel's own "hillbilly" gang, Dr. Bontempi's Snake Oil Company, in clubs and festivals across Europe (and even in Nashville and Las Vegas, USA!) have rightfully helped spread the Bontempi name around the world. So HERE is the second compilation of the rhythm?magician - packed with his 7" output (all limited and now sold out) from 2015 to 2021 and some unreleased songs and musical themes for plays, among other things. The CD comes in a digipak and 16-page booklet with all information and all tracks.
