Mermelada - Coge el train (1979)


double 7"
1 A - coge el tren [take the train]
B - dime cual es tu comision
2 A - es mejor asi (down the road apice)
B - O.M.

This was their second release (1st under their shortened name )

Musically they are a Spanish "Dr Feelgood" giving some great R&B

From what I could gleam from other sites they are from Madrid & began in 1977 as "Mermelada de Lentejas" [lentil jam]
the band were

Javier Teixidor (guitar)
Daniel Montemayor (bass)
Antonio yen (drums)
Javier Encinas 'the Moor'(tenor sax
)


Javier Teixidor also produced & played bass on the 1st "los elegantes" 45 for the same label (chapa discos) - great Spanish Mod/new wave band
