THE MONTYCOATS - You're Mistaken 7'' 1981

Four piece combo, probably from Amsterdam, called the Montycoats and they consisted of Jan (vocals/guitar), Guus (guitars), Simon (bass), Martin (drums) and this is a cool two-track cracker where the flip seems a bit tired. Nothin' much Info but SingSing Records made a re-release in 2009 where I pick a bit background: "Despite the several phony band names listed on the back sleeve, the Montycoats and Rotjoch were the only two bands to record for the Egmond subsidiary." This little label gave birth to a tape compilation called Gelanceerd Door Egmond also in 1981 with four bands who were probably all from the same town and the missing third song by the Montys' from that goodie is included in this bag, and your teeth are gnashing again after the weak b-side. Sometime after this single came the end and from then on they dedicated themselves to growing tulips, lived happily and carefree by the North Sea. - Great Polydor Record!
