Arabesque: The Low Point of Euro-Disco

May 17, 2008

Arabesque was probably the worst of the many many bad Euro-Disco groups, and their song Indio Boy justly represents the body of their work.

 

There song Friday Night isn’t much better musically, but at least they have some cool pants.

Lately…

June 28, 2007

…I have found myself listening to Baccara, the Spanish disco duo prominent in the late 70’s. Is it the accents, the glitter, the squeals of delight they express so pleasantly that charm me? I myself don’t know.

In any case, here is a very special video of Yes Sir I can Boogie, the single which sold 16 million copies – which made them the highest selling female music group ever up to that time (1977).

Though I prefer the previous song, this video of Sorry I’m A Lady might be more entertaining.

And for those lovers of French, we have Parlez-Vous Francais?
