Toledo Girl is a wonderful track recorded first by Little Jack Jingle in 1984 and then covered by Cosa Rosa in 1986. Both versions are pretty spectacular, Cosa Rosa's Spanish guitar breaks and flamenco atmosphere added some wonderful flavor to the track. I featured the Cosa Rosa version on podcast 03.

Mike Francis
Well after a month break from italobot I think I am ready to jump back on board. I was holding out for a few tracks that I have been trying to track down but there is still so much goodness to share that it seems criminal to wait any longer to get more music out there (though I suppose it some view it as criminal to share).
Here is a wonderful track from the soulful Mike Francis. This Italian crooner left us too soon just last year. "Night Time Lady" is a real slice of 1984, soulful, yacht-rocking disco. Be sure to acquaint yourself to this edit from Boogie Business that arrived in my email last week. Check out more of Boogie Businesses edits on his soundcloud page. Pure Italo, boogie funk!
