Religious Overdose - I Said Go / Alien To You (7'' 1981)













Religious Overdose were the first band of Alex Novak, later with The Tempest and above all with Venus Fly Trap. They did just few tracks on singles (one is ripped here, then we have another 7'', "25 Minutes" and a 12'' "The Girl With The Disappearing Head", probably their best release) and compilations, we can describe them as a experimental wave or a kind of alternative post punk.

Tracklisting:

A1 I Said Go
B1 Alien To You

Pas De Deux - Des Tailles (MLP 1983)













Pas De Deux represented Belgium for the 1983 edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. The mainstream audience did not understand this unconventional song (a simple tune and just one line of text: 'Rendez-vous. Maar de maat is vol, en mijn kop is toe'). The band ended third from last. Nonetheless 'Rendez-Vous' became a big summer hit in Belgium that year. Pas De Deux released one mini-album, Des Tailles (where Instant Karma and Cold Turkey are written by John Lennon) and a couple of singles.

Tracklisting:

A1 Mani Meme
A2 Lits Jumeaux
A3 Take A Cigarette 1 (Short Version)
B1 Instant Karma
B2 Cold Turkey / Axe Ends (Medley)
