After the Dutch rock band Diesel folded, band member Pim Koopmans formed The President in 1984 together with Okkie Huysdens. Their debut single 'You're gonna like it' was released in April 1984, and was taken from the album 'By appointment of'. It narrowly missed the Dutch Top 40.When I bought my new record player last Monday, a vintage Technics, it was demonstrated in the shop with an old compilation LP. 'You're gonna like it' was playing and I liked the sound of it - although I never did back in 1984. Seeing this single in a shop yesterday was such a strange coincidence that I bought it right away.

Found: La La Land, Den Haag, September 19, 2009
