The Driods - The Force

Another strange French synthpop band from 1977

not much is known about them, except that they should sue Daft Punk. Or perhaps they ARE Daft Punk, as rumoured...

Glory Be! Spandau is back :-)

righeira - no tengo dinero

A visitor submitted winner today from William Bosch


A Live version


This should not be confused (at least I don't think so) with the Los Umbrellos song. They are Swedish Evidently




Righeira had another hit - Vamos A La Playa - which I always thought was Mecano.


And last- a few years later the band had gone all Hollywood. Sigh, the innocence of 1982 was rpelaced by the day glo of 1986

Filthy Dukes- This Rythym

Mix New Order, Bloc Party and some good old fashioned NYC club music and you get the Filthy Dukes.

Great stuff




It comes from the labum Nonesense in the Dark, not out in the US ... yet.
So I guesss folks in the US will have to track it down and steal it.
