Coming from Bari (Where they took their name) and based in Rome, Baricentro took a different musical route to Festa, concentrating on instrumental Jazz-Rock which was very popular in Italy during the late 70's.
Their two albums released on EMI in 1976 and '78 nods to Weather Report and Mahavishu Orchestra but after a split in the 80's they reformed as a trio with a disco influenced sound and self produced single 'Tittle Tattle', released on Superdance Music back in 1984.
Featuring every element of what we love about Italo Disco this track includes straight forward drum patterns with dramatic synth stabs and those fantastic italo-english vocals and of course a stunningly catchy chorus making this a track that still sounds great today, demanding heavy rotation at any opportunity. Apparently 'Tittle Tattle' was a big track at Zanzibar and Paradise Garage, just wait until you hear the break...
Here's the Vocal. Absolutle killer!
