Ah, I also ordered this. Only know "It's The Monkey" which is the bomb.
I like "Street Dance" a bit better, but they're both killer.
The other tracks are totally different in style, but definitely still enjoyable (if you don't mind Italian vocals).
Strada, came in today. Strange indeed how the two most interesting tracks (It's The Monkey + Street Dance) differ from the rest. Most of them still enjoyable, yes: typical italodrama synthpop. The people behind Strada also wrote a lot for artists under contract with Cruisin' Records like Max-Him and Cruisin 'Gang, I see via links in discogs.
others:
Various - Cosmic Melodies LP (Cosmic): is this a reissue cause sleeve looks copied?
Joy Michael - Dancin' (Discomagic)
Chester - Hold The Line (Time): terrific later italo (1987)
Eric's Friends - Kiss Me In The Night (Cocaine): totally different from cover "Cocaine", this one is more happy uptempo (reminds me of Lime).
Ghecko - Firelight (Flexx)
Krisma - Cathode Mamma LP (Polydor)
Imatran Voima - In/Out (Tellektro)
