THE VERSIONS – “FORTUNE OF FAME”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE MUSIC PREMIERE
The Versions, formed in Santiago, Chile in 2004 by Samuel Maqueira and Aldo Benincasa of The Ganjas, along with Luciano Mariño of Los Chinches, got together and recorded their debut album 4-Track Summer with producer Álvaro Gómez (Perrosky).
Six years later, they released their second album Resurrection Hotel, where Alejandro Gómez (Solar) got on board (and featured Bernardita Martínez Guiso as a special guest) to help cook up their signature sounds of 70s proto-rock ‘n’ roll and sleazy psychedelia.
With a new lineup and a scorching new LP in the oven entitled Calling Lucifer, the album draws influence from Flamin’ Groovies, Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers, Iggy’s Kill City, Nikki Sudden & The Jacobites, Dogs d’amour, among others.
The Spill Mag is pleased to feature the world premiere of their fiery, cover of “Fortune of Fame”, originally written by UK legends Nikki Sudden & The Jacobites, coupled with a blazing version of “It’s Not Enough” from Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers.
