Mardi Gras - 2008 - Girl, I've Got News For You @320. With Covers

 

Repost

New York City-based rock and roll group who released several singles which were huge hits throughout Europe in 1970-71, followed by an eponymous album in 1972.

The core of the group was three friends, Lou Burgio, Bob Azzara, and Flip Cesario, who had performed in other bands, including The Royal Teens and Joey & The Twisters in the early 1960's. Their first release, a cover of "Girl, I've Got News for You", reached #1 in France, and moved high up the charts in Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, and elsewhere in Europe. They followed this with a cover of "Too Busy Thinking About My Baby", which again charted highly across Europe, and they released two more singles, "Every Day I Have to Cry Some" in 1971, and "Paris Sunshine" in 1972, soon after releasing their album.

They recorded one more record, backing the French singer Michel Laurent on "Sing Sing Barbara", which reached #1 across Europe yet again.
