Head up to the sky...




Not much info about Spargo other than the fact that it's a Dutch band formed in 1975 and originally composed of Ruud Mulder, Hans Elbersen, Ellert Driessen, Jef Nassenstein and Leander Lammertink.


A group that will remain mainly in the musical history of the 80s for the high-caliber single "You and me" released in 1980.


As such alone, we had to devote this article to them.


To discover or rediscover.

1980 ... first title and biggest success of their entire discography, just that. Certainly, it will not be a planetary tidal wave but the group will stay in history for THIS title. HU-GE !



1980 ... a good-natured style but a little too simplistic which will unfortunately never allow them to reach the top of the Charts. There are the big sizes and the rest of the world as they say ...



1980 ... a BIG year 1980 with a plethora of titles. A particularly busy first year of activity which enabled the group to make a name for himself a little faster than average ...



1981 ... the group sticks well to the latest trends but the level of inspiration is not sufficient to hope to compete with the best. It will therefore be necessary to be satisfied with the minimum ...



1981 ... which will surely remain as their most successful title. It will not remain as the best ranked of all but the group shows on this occasion a mastery of things more than obvious !



1982 ... another title of certain quality. The group is in full possession of its means and it shows, above all it can be heard !



1982 ... what will always have characterized this group is the obvious joie de vivre that drives them. A constant that we do not necessarily find in the competition ...



1982 ... big year 1980 but also BIG year 1982. Even years are particularly successful for them at first glance ...



1983 ... the rest will unfortunately be much less favorable. Drop in title production and drastic drop in the level of success. In short, it smacks of the end ...



1984 ... they only release one title per year now. Difficult in these conditions to hope for any miracle on the Charts side ...


1984 ... this title will even pass under the radar. The end of the group becomes inevitable and is fast approaching ...



1997 ... the group will disappear for more than 13 years before attempting a totally improbable comeback with this title. A daring bet and above all a lost bet ...
