Paris Latino was just one of those hits that you had to sing along to.  In 1983 in Europe it was everywhere.  In Italy it was the 11th biggest record of the year peaking at #2.

In the U.S. it was picked up by Sire, Seymour Stein's seminal synth-pop and new wave label. 


Bandolero a French act featured a pair of brothers and another guy.  They were basically one-hit wonders.  But like Disco Duck it's one of those one hit wonder songs that are absolutely unforgettable.

GET IT

Thursday live at Rome's Auditorium (Renzo Piano's Italian Masterpiece)

My blog is dedicated to the past.  But sometimes the feelings from the present can bring me to the past.  I've been enjoying the Pet Shop Boys since I got out of high school.  So seeing them again brought back a lot of feelings.  This video snippet is from my favorite song on their last release Electric.  I can hardly believe it was a flop because it simply has everything one would love in a classic synth pop song.


My seats were only so-so but I hope this snippet done with my Iphone 5S is decent enough to transmit some of my joy.

As always I urge my readers to click on the ads.  It's a sure way to show appreciation for my blog.
