Enjoy part 39 of Eddy's Eighties Grooves! All tracks are "superfine", to quote the Skool Boyz 😊 Next up is a new Smooth Sailing trip.

The Quick were a dance pop duo from England that consisted of vocalist Colin "Col" Campsie and bassist/keyboardist George McFarlane. They originally met in California in 1978, and began working together when they returned to England, taking the name The Quick. Their debut single, Sharks Are Cool, Jets Are Hot, was released in 1979. The following year, the duo's single Hip Shake Jerk became a huge hit in Australia, and their first album, On the Uptake, was quickly released there. Remixed and repackaged as Fascinating Rhythm, the album came out to the rest of the world in 1982, spawning two international hits, Zulu and The Rhythm Of The Jungle. A second LP, International Thing, followed two years later, but it was less successful. McFarlane and Campsie would resurface as the Giant Steps in 1988.
