Do we really know who Smokie was?
You shouldn’t be old to remember Smokie and Chris Norman’s voice! Unfortunately, that’s the case in US. Not too many youngsters (I’m not sure too many older ones either) know or ever heard about Smokie the brits and not Smokey … Robinson! And so, a strange, grave, mystic and still so attractive music is left back in the 70’s, with those now women (then girls) screaming for a piece of Chris’s hair! I believe someone should revive those sweet sounds in today’s music stores. I bet a lot of people will be surprised by the freshness of the old wave… Living next door to Alice and Needles and Pins are just two of the songs many would cry after! Too bad here they are not even existing!
