Backyards guys...



Not much interesting information about 20/20 except that it is an American group formed in Los Angeles in 1977 and originally composed of Steve Allen, Ron Flynt and Mike Gallo.


A group that will remain mainly in the musical history of this end of the 20th century for the big single "Strange side of love" which will be released in 1981.


For this reason alone, we had to dedicate this article to them.


To discover or rediscover...

Tracks :


1978...a quality debut that already shows a certain potential in this young group. Now it remains to be seen what they will do with this famous potential...



1978...a first year of existence that allows them to start to make themselves known a little bit. That's already something...



1979...in the second year of existence the group will begin to reap its first laurels, which can only encourage them to continue the adventure...



1979...a rise in power that is made title after title and which positions the group as one of the great revelations of the moment...



1979...certainly we're not going to talk about a big take-off but the group still managed to make a name for himself, a real one. The essential is therefore already done...



1979...all they have left to do is produce at least one big-caliber title and prove de facto that they deserve a full place in the musical Pantheon of this end of the 20th century...



1981...an ideal start to the 80s since it will allow them to secure that famous place within the Elite. Certainly a notch behind the others but still...



1981...a work that will remain the highest ranked of all and which therefore rewards their past efforts. Good job as they say...



1981...they'll have to make the most of it in any case because the rest might not be as favorable to them. Hard law of the trade...



1982...an adventure that will continue no matter what but in a much more confidential way. After that, the essential is done as they say...



1982...and as in music nothing is ever finished a return to the forefront is never to be excluded. To be continued...



1982...not sure that it will ever happen but hope springs eternal as they say. And they still have a minimum of hope left at this stage...



1983...in any case the group continues to believe in it and in principle he is absolutely right. As long as he continues to take pleasure in what he does, why throw in the towel prematurely...



1995...except that the adventure will be cut short and we thought we wouldn't see them again soon but we didn't know them well, the proof...



1995...because here they are again in the middle of the 90s with the firm intention of resuming the adventure where they left off...



1995... a return that will surely delight the core fans to the highest degree, especially since the group is back with a new quality opus. But which will indeed be the last this time...
