Flippin' though the channels the other day - I suddenly came across a clip that I hadn't seen for 17 years or so - the song was 'Is It A Dream' by the New Wave group Classix Nouveaux, and what was the program it was featured on?? I can't remember exactly, but it was on some Christian music/issues show and they had an interview with Sal Solo - (the bald singer dude) - I couldn't believe my eyes!! I thought he's disapeared of the face of the earth! he still looks exactly the same! apparently he's a born again Christian and given up the 'pop music' scene - he said that back in the Classix Nouveaux days, he had "no direction and wasn't gaining anything from it"?!? so now he's got a band together that goes around schools promoting Christianity. I think it's kinda cool that he is still a musician/songwriter after all this time - I thought he kicked ass back in the 80's - My favorite song they did was 'Guilty' - He was doing the Marilyn Manson image thing right back in 1982!! (you'll know what I mean if you saw the clip). I think he was much more talented though http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif Has anyone seen or heard anything about this thing he has got going? he gave a URL but as usual I was pen and paperless at the time

I suspect the URL you're looking for is

http://www.portjeff.net/salsolo/

I too liked Classix Nouveaux, but didn't realise that Mr Solo was still around

Yeah, I sure hope I'm still writing songs and playing in bands in my later years - In fact I'm going to force myself to! CAN'T STOP THE ROCK!!!!! he he he!!!!
Yeah, you have to admire Mr Solo for not fading into the background like so many other 80's artists. 18-19 years after Classix Nouveaux and he's still in the music scene http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//cool.gif
