Bongos are back!



Blessed relief is in sight - as the weekend slowly hoves into view... [Conundrum: why do four-day weeks after a Bank Holiday always feel like the longest?!]

...and to our delight here at Dolores Delargo Towers, the artist known as HiFi Sean (former lead singer of the short-lived 90s "hippie revivalists" the Soup Dragons) has turned his hand to reviving an altogether more favourable genre - a concept described by the hipsters of what passes for a "music press" these days as "Nu-Disco".

On hearing this, his latest single, I thoroughly approve of such a revival:


When was the last time you heard bongos on a dance choon? Faboo...

Thank (Nu-or-any-kind-of) Disco It's Friday!

Have a good one, dear reader.

  1. It's mesmerising to listen and watch the gentleman aloft at the same time. How is he doing it in time??!
    I liked the Soup Dragons!! This Nu-Disco has a very retro feel.

    1. Maybe we should call it "Old-Nu-Disco", or would that just make hipsters' heads explode? Jx

    2. I am not sure but I would think the lovely normadesmond is quoting from the 1976 Mel Brooks film 'Silent Movie'
