| | Band from Linköping, Sweden, formed in 1989. At this time they were making alternative soundtracks (which they themselves labelled ”romantic interpretations”) for American movies from the 1950s. Lisa, already a promising singer, was used on some tracks, while the boys sung or toasted on others. The first result was a demo-cassette called ”Cricket Buddhist”.
The co-operation was put on ice until late 1991. The EP ”Places” (1993) contained four songs.
In the autumn of 1996, the full-length album ”Live in Poland” was released. After having spent a great deal of time in Poland, the result was a collection of songs that in many ways was the very opposite of the softly-woven American dreamscapes from which they had departed.
Doris Days came to Dorado's attention when a handful of 10" singles made their way over from Japan and onto the turntables of people like Gilles Peterson, Patrick Forge and Ross Allen. To Ulrike M. was their debut for the label. The track is a tribute to Ulrike Meinhof and includes her own spoken word intro. |
