#90 of VJ Samsonite's Top 100 80's Dance Hits Countdown: "Go!" by Tones On Tail (1984)
Welcome back to VJ Samsonite's top 100 80's Dance Hits Countdown! Today we are presenting #90 of the top 100 countdown!And the song is...Go!, by musical side project and 80's post-punk band Tones On Tail. According to wikipedia, Tones on Tail was a side-project of Daniel Ash (of Bauhaus) and Glenn Campling (a roadie of Bauhaus) in 1982. When Bauhaus officially broke up in 1983 they were also joined by Kevin Haskins (drummer). Then, a short 2 years later they broke up and Ash and Haskins went on to form the band Love and Rockets. Tones on Tail did one short tour of the UK and USA and they released one studio album titled Pop in 1984. Go! came in a 7" or 12" versions. To my knowledge Go! was sort of their big hit song, although I would encourage myself and others to listen to the rest of their whole one album. Well, that about says it for #90, and I guess we have officially made it through the first 10, only 90 more to go! You might find yourself asking/telling yourself, "what other songs are there??," and "We screwed up! We never should have fired George Newman, because he's got imagination! Well, I think the fries are just about done."
