Elle adore le noir pour sortir le soir - T.C. Matic

Sometimes all a song needs is exposure at the right time to get into my record collection. A week before I was going to a record fair, I saw 'Elle adore le noir pour sortir le soir' by T.C. Matic on television. I loved the melody and the rough vocals. If I'd heard the song at another time I might have completely forgotten about it - but now I found the single soon afterwards. And I was lucky, because it's a great song from an otherwise uninteresting band - IMHO of course.

T.C. Matic was a Belgian rock band, mixing diverse styles like new wave, blues, funk, hard rock, avant-garde and even French chansons, resulting in nervous metropolitan rock. The band performed all over Europe, but without international success. They broke up in 1986 and frontman Arno Hintjes pursued a solo career.

My collection: 7" single no. 1524
Found: Record fair, Amsterdam, September 21, 1991
Cost: 6,5 guilders
Tracks: 'Elle adore le noir pour sortir le soir' / 'Act like a dog'
