DEDICATESSEN Vol. 9
Limited Edition 500 copies in transparent brown-coloured 7" vinyl, including a download coupon of this album in digital format (MP3 - 320 kbos).
After their successful third album, "Herreros y fatigas" (Jabalina 2012), Klaus&Kinski are back with this brown-coloured 7" vinyl single as part of our DEDICATESSEN collection, which contains four new unreleased songs.
Saying that Klaus&Kinski is a different band is almost a cliché these days, but records like this one contribute to make them an even greater band, and are new evidence of their originality. Alejandro and Marina have used "Klaus&Kinski a cuatro reinas moras" in the same manner of their previous 7" single (“Amor A, amor B”, from our Jabalina Love Songs collection): as a vehicle to explore their most intimate and acoustic side, almost verging into Folk music, and have proved that they will always remain faithful to themselves.
The premise of our DEDICATESSEN collection is to choose a topic and dedicate the songs to it - in this case Klaus&Kinski have chosen to record an EP inspired in four women, four peculiar 'moorish queens' which link thematically this single. And the songs have been born in that style close to chamber music in which Marina really shines when singing the band's characteristically witty observations of life.
First off is the temperamental “Rosarita”, a "copla" (Spanish traditional song), or at least the closest to one that a pop band can get (although Klaus&Kinski had already trodden this path with “El Rey del Mambo y la Reina de Saba”, featured on their second album “Tierra, trágalos”). Side A is closed by a contrasting “Encarnación”, the poppiest song in the EP, closer to Klaus&Kinski's usual songbook. Side B is dedicated to two Marías: “María Ascensorista” and “María Escupefuegos”. Both have romantic reminiscences and make full use of the piano as the main instrument.
To record these four songs Klaus&Kinski have adapted their line-up to fit the required acoustic approach. The musicians featured in "Klaus&Kinski a cuatro reinas moras" are: Marina Gómez Carruthers (vocals), Alejandro Martínez Moya (Spanish guitar, mandolin), Antonio José de Vicente–Yagüe Jara (grand piano), Pilar Crespo Amador (violin and viola) and Alfonso Sánchez Laffage (concert flute).
