Bacarra-Yes sir I can boogie 1978?

[billyblackwood]

I just read somewhere that Sophie Ellis Bextor's
hit "murder on the dancefloor" uses parts of Bacarra -Yes sir I can boogie? Anybody have any info on this band?
label etc?? I've never even heard of them??
thanks

SEB seems to copy quite a lot of old disco. :roll:

Oh my God :o that is the worst disco I've ever heard
in my life, I could barely force myself to listen to the
2 minute clip to hear the sample which I still don't hear?
thanks for the info though

No, "Murder on the Dancefloor" has nothing sampled, unlike "Groovejet". Even the violins were specially recorded live in studio just for the song by the British quartet "The Wired Strings".

"Yes Sir, I Can Boogie" really does get tiring after a short while. Baccara's own "Koochie-Koo" basically samples the strings from "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie".

Thank you for posting your message! I didn't realize Sophie had released her own rendition of "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie" on CD till I researched that just now. I had only known she was performing it in concerts.

I quite like the Baccara track.... Its a classic cheesy track that i even got on US 12" However i would agree that i it probably wont find its way to either a Dave Lee or a Dmiritry compilation -
Check out their version of Light My Fire its very long but atleast a few minutes of it is increddible =)

Sometimes, it does cross the line into "what the fuck"??? territory, doesn't it?

It's no more cheesier than "More More More" Andrea True Connection or "Superman" Celi Bee.

It has it's place...Don't say the bin...You wicked people!!

Nice to see you back ;-)

D'ya have any knowledge if it was re-recordes and released several times? I have to versions: The one to be found on the album (which I can't remember the name of at the moment) and numerious compilations, and one on mp3 that sounds like an earlier recording. It's much more 'unpolished' in it's sound - allmost demo-like.

"More, More, More" is an alltime fave. :D

"Superman" sucks. :x

Buckaroo: How can you write that Bacarra is no less cheesey than Andrea True? :oops:
Even my wife, who admits she has no real musical taste whatsoever, feigns wretching if she ever hears Yes Sir, I Can Boogie, whereas she gently wiggles her hips and sings along to Andrea True. Even she can smell a rat! :lol:

Ah Q,

I'm having a real "kum-bay-ah" moment. "Hands across the water, hands across the sky"!!! We agree!!! Who knew???!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

On a Scale O' Cheese....let me put it this way.....

"More, More, More" is a fine Brie.... you're throwing a party, you wanna impress your guests with your fine taste....

"Superman" is a Kraft individually wrapped single...edible but very ordinary on your bagged lunch sandwich...

"Yes Sir! I Can Boogie" is a 10 year old container of processed cheese you find in the back of your refrigerator on the day you're moving to a new apartment...and wonder "what was I thinking??!!!" and promptly toss in the TRASH!!!! :P :P :P

BACCARA were spanish right? somebody once told me they were from las palmas in the canary islands not sure if its true or i even care :lol:

[martin69]

Her lastest single (I won't change you) was out earlier thi year and it includes her version of the song. I recommend it. It's great.
