Barbarella - not Duran Duran

[furtographer]

"O-oh,O-oh,O-oh, Barbarella-a"

Sorta B-52's kind of rythm, sorta surf-y. It was an underground radio hit circa '82. I can't think of any other lyrics.

That would be The Bongos from their 6 song ep "Numbers With Wings" (now sadly out of print)

Just knowing the titles of these songs is starting to give me a recall of the 'smell' of '84: the laser hologram pendant of Einstien, the [medical] peroxide in my hair, the 50's clothes I found in the garrage, the section sign in the record store labled

I have the bongos on vinyl, I got it for free one night from WLIR when I went to Spit on monday night madness night

[unguarded moment]

It was released on CD along with the "Beat Hotel" album, and it's well worth seeking out.

The Bongos definatly need to have their works re-issued. Agreatly underated band. The Numbers With Wings EP is a classic.

Will the tracks be re-mastered? I haven't listened to my Bongos CD's in a while, but I do recall they didn't sound so good sound wise.

I've got all the (major) Bongo's work on CD. I bought their CD's maybe 10 years ago. If you live in a major metro area, you should be able to dig up some of their work in a good record store.

Not too hard to find their stuff on Kazaa or SoulSeek, eithe
