Fact #74115
When:
Short story:
Bananarama release their debut single, Aie A Mwana, on Demon Records in the UK. They had first heard the song, sung in Swahili by Black Blood, in a French disco. Bananarama had originally recorded it as a demo but, ultimately, the demo version was pressed onto the record. It does not chart, but reviews in the music and fashion press (NME, The Face) will catch the attention of Terry Hall, who will invite Bananarama to sing on the next single by his new vocal group Fun Boy Three.
