The Rubens Room - El Records In Camera

Of all the independent record labels of the 1980s, él was the most singular and exciting. él only existed for a few short years and yet paradoxically - given its modest commercial success - was hugely influential. For writer Jonathan Coe, one of the label's many devotees, él was 'Britain's great musical secret'. This 'best of' compilation, curated by label supremo Mike Alway himself, will remind the world of the greatness of él.
