Krisma - I Must Know Your Name

"krisma" or original "chrisma" where formed by maurizio arcier and his wife christa moser.
"nothing to do with the dog"(1983) is there third album of "krisma" and its a good mix of synthpop and and obscure wave.
the song "i must know your name" reminds me to the early stuff of "peaches".
no pop-just a simple,cold beat and a cool,smooth voice.

Faust - Baby

the album "munich & elsewhere" was released in 1986 ,all tracks are recorded back in 1973-1975.

i have a preference for progressive rock from the 70s with german lyrics. the problem is..most of them are about political stuff. the song "baby" is different.
the refrain goes like this:

aaa baby
are you coming to the cinema with me?
aaa baby
And after that we'll go for a meal
And after that we'll go dancing
And after that we'll go screwing

-------------------------------------------------------------------

this is real life!
