Cherry Red Records Summernights (aka Golden Girls) EXPANDED EDITION

· SILVER CONVENTION started life in Munich in 1974 when German song-writing and production partners Michael Kunze and Sylvester Levay released ‘Save Me’ on Jupiter Records, and with the help of three session vocalists it became an international Disco hit heralding the start of continued success throughout the 70’s including a Grammy Award for Best R&B Instrumental Performance with ‘Fly, Robin, Fly’ and ‘Get Up And Boogie’ confirming the group’s reputation for catchy dance floor music that was at the forefront of the Euro-disco movement.
· The release of SUMMERNIGHTS also brought with it a new line up when long time vocalist Linda G. Thompson left to pursue a solo career, making way for native New Yorker, Rhonda Heath. Following the recognition of highly acclaimed industry print, Record World Magazine for best Female Vocal group in 1977, SILVER CONVENTION released SUMMERNIGHTS (GOLDEN GIRLS in the US and Australia) in the same year.
· SUMMERNIGHTS’ first single release, TELEGRAM, was included on the album after SILVER CONVENTION sung this song representing Germany in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1977 with the vocal trio eventually finishing in 8th place. Other notable tracks include funky bass driven single, HOTSHOT and the album’s title track, SUMMERNIGHTS that sweeps the listener into a euphoric, string-laden recollection of balmy, mid-summer evening swings!
· BBR is very proud to introduce this delectably repackaged and lovingly remastered expanded edition of SILVER CONVENTION – SUMMERNIGHTS. Complete with liner notes and added bonus content this BBR Remaster is essential listening for all Soul, Pop, Disco and Dance fans out there!
