€12.90*
1956 hat Screamin’ Jay Hawkins “I Put A Spell On You” veröffentlicht.
Ein Wahnsinns-Tune, der unter die Haut geht und mit bedingungsloser
Liebe nicht viel zu tun hat. Hier wird dem oder der Verflossenen mächtig
zugesetzt. Viele Interpret*Innen haben sich in der nachfolgenden Zeit
diesem Tune angenommen, u.a. Creedence Clearwater Revival, Nina Simone
und Annie Lennox. Das spanische Label Cool Up Records hat sich nun an
eine Reggae-Version des Liedes gemacht und eine feine 7 Inch auf den
Markt gebracht.
Die spanische Sängerin Sailor Smile legt sich auf einem äußerst
angenehmen Reggae-Riddim mit ihrer tollen Stimme mächtig ins Zeug. Die
ursprüngliche Wahnhaftigkeit des Originals dringt dabei durch und macht
diese 7 Inch zu einem angenehmen Release, das gut produziert ist und
Freude macht. Das gilt ebenfalls für die mitgelieferte Dubversion auf
der B-Seite. An der Leadgitarre zaubert Javibi Martin Boix einen feinen
Gegenpart zu dem kräftigen Gesang von Sailor Smile.
