Les Apaches - Colorado c/w Blue Stringsdotdotdotdot
artworkThis 1962 single is very nice. Its a-side is nearly surf, and both sides are quite enjoyable. "Colorado" is a gentle surf number you'll like.
Picks: Colorado, Blue Strings

Track by Track Review


Colorado dotdotdotdot
Surf (Instrumental)

Semi muted notes lightly reverbed provide rhythm behind an echo swimming melody. The drums are distant, but that aside, "Colorado" is a very interesting song that straddles the gap between The Shadows and surf. I like this a lot.

Blue Strings dotdotdot
Rock (Instrumental)

Soft, shallow whammy chords and echo provide an island image as "Blue Strings" evolves. Gentle and vacation easy.
