    I kindly ask all viewers to maintain a respectful tone in the comments section. While I welcome debates and differing opinions, please avoid using foul language or making personal attacks. Let’s keep discussions civil and constructive.
    The voiceover in the video is generated using AI and it's not always perfect. However, everything else is crafted by me. This includes writing the video scripts, researching, finding photos and video clips, editing them, and creating the graphics you see. The music is composed by me too unless otherwise stated. Occasionally, I may use original music by artists or bands, provided it does not result in copyright warnings or strikes.
    Thank you for watching and supporting my channel!

    Absolutely loved Classix Nouveau in the 80's couldn't stop playing inside outside. Didn't realize they had new music out so thanks for posting. They were a real inspiration to my own songwriting and I loved Sals vocal tone and the guitar was amazing too. Great band.

    Bought La Verite in 1982 and played it regularly for decades. They definitely had their own sound.

    A band that blended elegance, style,sublime music and lyrics should have been a huge stadium band in the UK and the usa.

    I love them, discovered via Rockets for obvious reasons about 20 years ago and still listen to them quite often now at 40.
    Curiously, Billy MacKenzie (that you compared to Sal Solo) is my favourite singer ever and I've tries to emulate both in my Sleepdriver project.

    They are popular in Poland. Sal Solo put on the cover of his album the painting of Jasna Gora. Also, he recorded San Damiano with a Polish choir. San Damiano is popular during Christmas time although it has nothing to do with it😅.

      ​@@80sNewWaveMusic there is a radio broadcast Noc u Berniego in Radio Poznan every Friday evening between 9:00-00:00 CET. There is only music from the 80s played. It always starts with 627 by Classix Nouveaux.

      That's awesome. They deserve recognition for who they were and what they did to music :)

      Yes 100%. A very charismatic singer with a unique voice.

    I saw Mick Sweeney playing once with A Flock of Seagulls for a whole show in Liverpool in 1986. The clip says it was Steadman... I'm positive I saw Sweeney.

    It’s peculiar how they never found the success they did despite being in the same sphere as Ultravox and the like

    I saw them perform at Leeds, Sal was in a one piece silver suit and collapsed and had to be carried off stage before returning 10 minutes later stripped to the waist and still wet through with sweat, I doubt he wore the suit again!

    Bought a couple of singles, but they were always a bit "meh" for me, hardly ever played them! Bit like mt Tik and Tok singles.
