Emotion : Reckless
Artist : Laura Branigan
Track : Self Control (Extended Version)
Album : Self Control
Release Details : Atlantic Records, 1984
A choice slice of 1980′s power pop courtesy of a sexy chick from upstate New York.
Any track that starts with a balls out electric guitar solo before segueing into synth pop is alright by us.
Originally made by RAF (or Raffaele Riefoli to his mum) – Harold Faltermeyer and Robbie Buchanan took the Italo track and made it massive thanks to the girl more famous for ‘Gloria’ (another Emotionally charged power pop record).
Ms Branigan sadly passed away in 2004 but this rascal ensures she’s not forgotten.
