Another Swedish all-girl pop band. Except that these haven’t been around since 1967. They were called The Plommons and I discovered them on the mp3 player yesterday, where they had quietly found themselves a seat next to the other bands that are featured on Girls in the Garage 3. This song is called Last Train To Liverpool and it’s damn brilliant. And not just because it mentions places on the map as well as trains. See, you don’t have to be produced by someone dubious like Phil Spector to record songs like this.

(I can’t download songs from here –not even from the mp3 player– but if anyone happens to have an mp3 and would like to send it to me to share it with the world, that’d be greatly appreciated. If that someone happens to be my wife, you’ll probably find the compilation as a sub folder of the directory where my not-too-recent downloads usually end up. Alternatively, Amazon has a second hand copy for 65 US dollars. Thanks, Dimitra!)
