Gustavo Gastell

Artist: Gustavo Gastell
LP: 7" single
Song: "Thunderball"
[ listen ]

Here's a neat single I found in Guadalajara, México a few years ago. Gustavo Gastell evidently shares my affection for the James Bond theme songs of the 1960s, since he recorded covers of three of them for this 1966 EP. I bet we'd make good karaoke partners. Gustavo's Spanish-language "Thunderball" lyrics, which seem to have been written by M. Molina Montes rather than being translated from English, are included below. I guess making up new lyrics was probably just easier than trying to force the literally-translated Spanish words to match up with the music.
