Los Bravos captured the restless energy of mid-sixties beat pop with a sound that sat somewhere between the rawer American garage impulse and the more polished European pop sensibility—and this 1966 Decca single is a perfect snapshot of that tension. The A-side, "Going Nowhere," has that urgent, slightly defiant quality that made the group stand out among their contemporaries, while "Brand New Baby" on the flip shows their knack for a hook that burrows into your head without feeling saccharine. The Spanish-German band brought a particular flavor to the beat boom, and both sides here demonstrate why they were able to hold their own against the flood of groups all chasing the same audience. Whether you're drawn to the melodic pop-rock of the era or simply appreciate records that capture a specific moment when rock was still finding its voice, this one rewards repeated listening.
