Allez Allez was a successful but short lived Belgian funk band founded in 1981 and disbanded in 1985.〔(Houbi.com )〕 ==History== On the verge of an international breakthrough in 1981, funky Belgian new wave band Marine lost their singer Marc Marine while in London to record a Peel session. Quickly replaced by Sarah Osborne of Repetition, they recorded the planned Peel session and changed their name to Allez Allez.〔(Discogs.com )〕 The group had local hits with "She's Stirring Up", "Allez Allez" and "African Queen", the latter a tribute to Grace Jones. Their mini-album "African Queen" achieved gold status and earned them an appearance at the Torhout-Werchter festival in 1982.〔Rock Werchter 1982〕 The band then signed with major label Virgin and released the polished pop album "Promises" in November 1982, though Osborne subsequently left the group and married Glenn Gregory of Heaven 17. American singer Jackie Irwin replaced Osborne, but still mainstream success eluded the band.〔(lesdisquesducrepuscule.com )〕 Under the name Marka their bass player later became a well-known singer in French music circles. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Allez Allez」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
