(Copase Disques) Mid-tempo French pop influenced soul-rock, somewhat
restrained, but not Northern Soul-dull either. Cool keyboard and guitar
arrangements, and fine singing, but while many hommes will no doubt be enchanted by singer Gabriela, you should
all take a gander at drummer Zelda…ooh la
la…the French invented the Scopitone for a reason! Obviously this is an
image conscious band, but that never detracts from the music, as all the
cravats and mod gear in the world (of 1966) couldn’t craft mighty melodies that
both pick up steam and get steamy. This might not sound enough like bad
Supremes/Four Tops knockoffs to win all the Mods over, but I’m a lot easier.
And like the Coneheads, we’re not really sure if they are actually from France,
but I’ll take Serge Hoffman’s, and Beldar’s, words for it.
