I am the beat...




Few interesting information about The Look except the fact that it is an English group formed in 1980 in Ely and originally composed of Gus Goad, Jonny Whetstone, Mick Bass and Trevor Walter.


Group which will remain mainly in the musical history of this end of the 20th century for the high-caliber single "I am the beat" which will be released in 1980.


For this reason alone, we had to devote this article to them.


To discover or rediscover.

1980...it will have been enough of a title, THIS title, to make return the group One Shot in the musical legend of this end of XXth century. They will win here the biggest success of their - very short - career from their first title, it's what we call a master stroke. HU-GE !



1981...the only problem in this kind of dazzling success is to confirm behind that it was not just a stroke of luck. And in this case, given the level of success achieved by this title, things are going rather badly...



1981... this one had to be daring to cover one of the key titles of the musical West Side Story dating from 1956. And above all to make a rock version of it to mess up the bald...



1981... the group will pass through the musical landscape of the 80s like a shooting star with in the end only one album on the clock. Too bad because there was potential in this group...



1981... all of their work will therefore be concentrated mainly on the year 1981. A group that will have risen too quickly and above all too high with a descent from the mountain that they will not have been able to manage unfortunately...



1981...plus they were good at everything. A versatility that should have allowed them to continue the adventure but fate decided otherwise in the end...



1983... they will reappear again in this year 1983 but it will indeed be the last time. At least for this end of the 20th century...



2013 ... when we thought the case was definitely closed, here they reappear 30 years later in a totally way. Who would've believed that possible...?



2013...and not only do they appear but they also have interesting things to offer and especially to sing. We can only wait for the sequel... if there is one one day...
