Dollar - Who Were You With In The Moonlight (Top of The Pops) May 1979 (SHQ) New!

After editing and uploading Dollar's top 10 hit single "Love's Gotta Hold On Me" recently, and after the wonderful feedback from so many of you, we here at The Square Disc have decided to work on another of Dollar's old pop songs, "Who Were You With In The Moonlight" was a top 20 hit for the duo in May of 1979, they performed the song on Top of The Pops later the same month.

Dollar were an English pop vocal duo, comprising of David Van Day and Anglo-Canadian Thereza Bazar. The duo were successful in the late 1970s and 1980s, achieving ten UK top-40 singles, including the top-10 hits "Love's Gotta Hold on Me" (1979), "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" (1979), "Mirror Mirror" (1981), "Give Me Back My Heart" (1982) and "O L'amour" (1987).

Thereza Bazar and David Van Day met at 17 when they successfully auditioned for the pop act Guys 'n' Dolls. The group enjoyed a number of hit singles in the mid-1970s and during this time Van Day and Bazar became romantically involved. By 1977, the group was in decline and the pair complained about the choice of material and musical direction. Van Day and Bazar were asked to leave the group in July of that year, with them publicly stating they had decided to leave to concentrate on songwriting. Van Day originally planned to go solo, but ultimately they agreed to form a duo. They were picked up, by French label Carrere Records, under the name Dollar.

Hope you enjoy the song, it still sounds great to me.
