Retro Saturday: Laban

Big hair and shameless 80s production values, this time from Denmark. Lecia Jönsson and Ivan Pedersen were the lead singers in Laban, and I quite liked their music back in those mid to late 80s days. "Prisoner of the Night" was my favourite song of theirs: no video but hear it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixIjrFMC6io - I didn't realise that there was also a Danish-language version of it called "Fange i Natten" - video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWMWjrvLVi4&feature=related

I never realised this was a cover version of a German song called "Dein ist mein ganzes Herz" by Heinz Rudolf Kunze until I started investigating YouTube tonight: that site is an education!!
