Fake - Frogs in Spain (1984) ITALO-DISCO

スウェーデン出身のイタロディスコ・プロジェクト「FAKE」の12インチシングルからA面。カスタネットを持った蛙のジャケットが非常に芸術的。冷やかなシンセサイザーやコーラス部分の「La la la」など印象深い、非常に素晴らしい1曲。これぞ芸術だ。日本のバンドとは無関係。「New Art（’84）」に収録。1984年発表。ドイツのZYXレーベルから発売。手元のレコードから録音。Fake was born when two Swedish musicians, Erik Strömblad and Stefan Bogstedt, founded their own band, then called Size 46, in 1977. The band grew over the next years, with metal drummer Stefan Sverin and singers Tony Wilhelmsson and Ulrica Örn, and more and more synthesizers were added to their rock music.The group's second single, "Donna Rouge", was a major hit in Italy and the remix became a disco-classic. The band performed on the Discoring television show in 1984 and Festivalbar in 1985. An album, New Art, was also released that year. Another single, "Brick", released a year later, was also a big success internationally reaching for example no. 1 in Italy and Greenland and no. 6 in France.
