But once again in classic Italo Disco form their making up is our pleasure. This 1982 release on Blood Records is one more example of how clearly funky and electronic and danceable Italo Disco can be. The D.J.'s at WBMX in Chicago found it and played the hell out of it.
One very interesting thing to note is that Alredo Riccini who also happened to co-write this tune also happens to record with the aliases Joe Yellow, Bandanna, Bob Salton, Delanuà, Joe Yellow, and Sylvi Foster.
