"SUZY & LOS QUATTRO have returned to SCREAMING APPLE to offer their fans the opportunity to get some of the stuff they have released in the past few years on CD only for the first time on vinyl. This compilation contains the whole ‘Freak show’ MCD, all their sold out 45s and other hard to find goodies recorded by the best REAL power-pop band in Europe besides the mighty YUM YUMS. The origin of the band from Barcelona, Spain is a truly romantic one. B.B. (bass, guitars, keyboards, backing vocals) and Suzy(vocals) were about to celebrate their anniversary as a couple, and they decided that they could not find a better present for the other than booking a weekend at Coky’s (former Shock Treatment member) Rockaway Studios and record several tunes B.B. had in the can with Tomás, former singer of the sadly missed pop-punk legend DEPRESSING CLAIM on drums. They take all those sounds we’ve loved for so many years (RAMONES, BLONDIE, NIKKI & the CORVETTES, DWIGHT TWILLEY, PHIL SEYMOUR and so many more) and blend them with a style that is both pure, lovely, sweet, sexy and exciting. They show incredibly good songwriting (for a band that was never intended to be!) and the production and vocal arrangements are superb. Finding the right combination of energy and sweet melodies is hard to do, but SUZY & LOS QUATTRO certainly discovered the perfect way to pop heaven. Get this platter and you can be sure to survive even the longest and coldest winter, just to be perfectly prepared for the next summer!"
