The band was quite popular in western Ruhrgebiet. They had a considerable following. These recordings were given to me many many years ago by their lead guitarist Horst Naß. Other members were Armin Burau, rh gtr, Rolf Steinbach, dr, Hans-Günter Löber, b, and Gisela Affeldt (later Gisela Burau), voc, org.
The four songs here are studio demos, two band compositions and two Dusty Springfield numbers. One of the tracks was released on the Bear Family CD “Ruhrgebeat” (BCD 16474 AR). Read about Gisela & The Spirits’ history in the extensive booklet (written by Hans-Jürgen Klitsch) accompanying the CD and in the book “Shakin‘ All Over – die Beatmusik in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland 1963-1967“ (ISBN 978-3-946502-11-1), also written by Hans-Jürgen Klitsch.
