Lukku Tríó #10


Sisley Ferré is a protege of Michiel Van Der Kuy, the dutch megaman who was in the band Laserdance, took over the Koto project for a few years, and released stuff as Rygar and Desiderio and many others.

"I get a kick from your power
That water for the flower
Don't want nice from above
But from your heart I want your love"

This song from 1986 has some trademark Van Der Kuy production: the clap and the bongo, and something about the bouncyness, but the thing that makes this song supergreat is Sisley Ferré - she is such a hot mama, her voice is so sweet but gets kinda crunchy for dramatic effect. Mmm.

Cynthia Farroll released one record, which was produced by Vince Tempera. That's all I know. Well, I also know that this 1985 song was written by a Randy Jackson and a Liz Jackson, but I don't know if it's the Randy from American Idol, or the Randy from Jackson 5, or some other Randy. The American Idol judge did have a wife called Elizabeth so that could make sense, but take your pick: (A) Randy writing a great italo song, or (B) Randy being covered by an obscure group.

I like A better. And that explains the song, Randy always being bubbly and wearing those funky shirts and all.

Brian Auger's background is very, very different from most of the artists here.

In short: he's a super prolific artist and a Hammond keyboardist who studied under Jimmy Smith, formed a band with Rod Stewart, played with Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin, was nominated for a Grammy, and recorded with Eric Burdon.

Take some of his work out of context (that is, forget everything about Julie Driscoll and performing in Las Vegas) and you have prima Italo right here.
