THE REVIEW

Thanks to my then-beloved Dutch partner (hi Sacha), I stumbled upon an unusual birthday gift with an Italian name (but could they be from Abbiategrasso?) yet with an accent and vocabulary unmistakably pro-Van Gogh.

Irreverent, fun, extremely pop, not punk enough for those years (1978) but I recommend a carefree listen without pretenses, comparisons, or pedestals. A milestone in the unknown musical production of the subjects of King Willem-Alexander. Revival!
