Tonica & Dominante
TIGRE / GENNARINO O SIOUX
(7 INCH)
Archeo Recordings / AR020-7
12 Inch
Originally released in 1979 on Dominant Records. Now back on 7 inch vinyl.
Originally released in 1979 on Dominant Records, the two songs, produced by Antonio Iglio and Antonio Moxedano, became a total cult through the years, a collector item if there is one.
The original 7 inch is one of the most wanted and rarest, impossible to find, with few copies appearing in the second hand market at hundreds quotations, a true milestone in the underground Neapolitan Disco Funk sound released between the end of the Seventies and early Eighties in a lot of small, unknown labels.
The fever around Tigre / Gennarino 'O Sioux by Tonica & Dominante was so high that influenced a new wave of Neapolitan acts like Nu Guinea (Nu Genea) and also compilations of other singles from the past like "Napoli Segreta".
