La Bionda [D.D. Sound]: La Bionda [Full Album + Bonus] (1978)
Italian brothers Michelangelo & Carmelo La Bionda had had their taste of disco success with their first two D.D. Sound albums in 1977, so much that Ariola wanted to sign them as well. They had to record under a different name, so they simply chose La Bionda. The catchy One For You, One For Me became a European Top 10-hit in the summer of 1978 (although only #54 in the UK), its B-side (the opening track on some LP pressings) become successful in its own right when covered by French icon Dalida, 1981, and much later by Sarah Brightman & Paul Potts too. The opening track of side 2, the 10 minutes plus Sandstorm, seemed to inspire the beduin-themed cover art and a cult disco track itself, so much that Canadian-based Rio Records released a modestly remixed version of it in 1982, also included here.
