GeeS

think back to 1979 when Wings were about to quietly fade away but took time to release this eclectic (almost disco...lol) number and if we don't think we've lost something special then we're crazy...and if we think that era is coming back anytime soon then we are complete fools...

They all had a 'go' at doing some form of dance, disco-y type thang from the Stones (Miss You) to Stewart (Sexy) to Blondie (Heart of Glass) to Paul Mac (Goodnight Tonight) - without a doubt the moment got to these guys as who could resist doing something different and with speakers blasting out 'Born to be Alive' and 'You Make Me Feel' not to mention Le Chic and even Kiss going dance with 'You were made for lovin' me' and yeah, the whole world for a year or so was dancing!

photos featured, south east Queensland on dusk and south east Asia (Michelin star restaurant) - Part of Australia feels the wash of Asia across it, WA and the Territory (especially Darwin) yet all else is Oceania with that whole Coral Sea buzz, colonial architecture and more than a liberal dash of UK and European early influences...

can you still recall in the juke box hall when the music played and the world spun round to a brand new sound in those far off days...in their blue suede shoes they would scream and shout as they sang the blues, let it all hang out...rock and roll...
