Zaza – Zaza [LP] (1982, Blow Up)

 

ZaZa (born June 5, 1951 as Peter La Bonté in Munich) is a German pop singer. He became known in 1982 with the song "Zauberstab", which is now considered a classic of the Neue Deutschen Welle.With it he rose in August 1982 in Germany to number 8 in the single charts. The song's lyrics, which were perceived as salacious -in the chorus ZaZa sings "wenn ich Dich kriege, zeigt dir mein Zauberstab die Liebe"("when I get you, my magic wand will show you love")- led to several radio stations banning the song from their programming. In the film "The Flambé Woman", however, the title was played. For ZaZa it remained the only big hit. The follow-up single only just made it into the charts, further successes failed to materialize. 

 
The entire records is full with unique rhythms, percussive machines which keep the club move; weird new wave with strange vocals and absurd child's synthetizers and unconventional saxophone sounds, containing some touch of Kraftwerk in the "Vorbei Ist Vorbei" track. [SOURCE: WIKIPEDIA]
