The Longo Brothers - The Nightlife 1984


I had the opportunity two times ago to present the group from Canada called The Longo Brothers. The first time I presented the single "Looking for love / Sun side up" which was released in 1978 on People City Music and the second time the single "Manhattan / Nightwalk" which was released in 1983 on the same label.
Last month, I discovered an article about The Longo Brothers which will be a surprise for all the fans of soul music. I have been looking for it for about two months, until I managed to find it.
However all my visitors must wait a week, because today I'm presenting another single by Longo Brothers entitled "The Nightlife / Coast to coast". It was released on People City Music in 1984. "The Nightlife" is a beauriful AOR mid-tempo. This song was performed by Wayne St.John from Canada. Wayne St.John was known from the 70s, mainly when he sang for the disco group called THP Orchestra in 1976.
"The Nightlife" was written by Frank Longo, Dino Longo and Larry Longo. Produced by The Longo Brothers. Backing vocals by Lisa Dalbello and Jill Vogel.




The flip side is a nice dance instrumental entitled "Coast to coast". It was written by Frank Longo and Larry Longo.



Next week you will see a surprise about The Longo Brothers.

I bought this 12" for 11 pounds in 1996 from England. However, I was wrong about it. In fact, I wanted to buy Arnie's Love . I got lucky. After 12 years I sold it for over 300$. It was recorded and released probably in 1980 on TAP Records. Arranged by Nathaniel Yisrael , David Parker and Arnie Love. Produced by Nathaniel Yisrael. From this ultra rare 12", I have chosen a ballad " Me, Myself & I ". Note: The above posted track is not played in full
