It would be fair to say that the band Animal Nightlife made music very much like the band Sade: funky, jazzy, soulful music with good melodies and catchy choruses. The band formed in the early Eighties, its members were vocalist 'Flid', Leonardo Chignoli, Billy Chapman, Paul Waller and Andy Polaris.The music video for 'Mr. Solitaire' was a regular on music channels in 1984. It caused me to get a bit sick of it in the end. That summer, it peaked at number 25 in the UK singles chart. Years later, I realised I wanted to have this song - and then spent ages trying to find it.
My collection: 7" single no. 2579
Found: Record fair, Rotterdam, December 16, 1995
Cost: 2 guilders
