Follow Me (Special Disco Mix 10:48) NOTES ON THIS VINYL RECORD:
- Amanda Lear has been steeped in mystery since the 1970s. Rumors abound as to whether she is a true she or not.
"Follow Me" from 1978 was basically a sleeper until Trocadero Transfer's DJ Bobby Viteritti decided to play it one night to an enthusiastic crowd. It became a legend after that. Read the entire interview with Bobby Viteritti to find out the sequence of events and his night out with Amanda Lear in Florida.
Featured here is the late Wally MacDonald's Disco Mix which clocks in at over ten minutes. Wally was a well known DJ from Toronto, Canada. A bit of information that isn't generally known is that only the original pressings on the Canadian Inter Global Music label, which were pressed on both black and gold vinyl, are from the master tapes. All other releases such as this one on Siamese Records and Ariola Records were lifted from a vinyl copy because the original master tapes that MacDonald had prepared were lost and never found after IGM went out of business.

Reader Comments on Amanda Lear
I'm not a big fan of Amanda Lear's by any means, but I must say that this track, with its cosmic, dreamy feel, is quite an achievement, if only in that it manages to transcend her (his?) usually annoying voice and intonations. Just forget King Lear, this is an amazing track...

This is a forgotten gem from the disco area... Also check out her amazing track "Alphabet".
