Danny - Kit Hain

Kit Hain made her name as one half of the duo Marshall Hain. After one album, the duo broke up and Kit Hain tried to launch a career on her own. It started well enough, with her first single 'Danny' reaching no. 27 in the Dutch Top 40 in June 1981. But after that, the hits dried up. Hain did release two albums, 'Spirits walking out' and 'School for spies', before giving up as a performing artist. However, she continued to write songs and successfully so. Her songs have been performed by Cher, Cyndi Lauper, Fleetwood Mac, Heart, Chaka Khan and many others.

I found this single for 1 guilder and bought it on a whim. It's a charming song, nothing spectacular but nice enough to listen to on cold evenings like today.

My collection: 7" single no. 1267
Found: Disco Market, Den Haag, July 14, 1990
Cost: 1 guilder
Tracks: 'Danny' / 'Inner ring'
