The Mads

The Mads celebrate the 40th anniversary of their formation with a smashing new single. The 45rpm includes 2 tracks: the (A) side "Turn Me Up" written by Marco Pertusati (music) and Flavio Candiani (lyrics) has a melody that instantly grabs you by the ears. Whilst bang up-to-date, it boasts a twisting n crawling, two-tone rhythm. The (B) side, meanwhile is a cover version of "Strange Town" by The Jam, which builds on the grit and attitude of the original and tops it off with richer and more reflective vocal harmonies, a trademark of The Mads recordings. The Mads (original line-up): Luis Bergamaschi, bass and vocals Mauro Fossati, drums and vocals Toni Graziani, lead guitar and vocals Marco Pertusati, lead vocals and rhythm guitar
