The Creatures – Solar Eclipse (Disco Mix) (Italy 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1985

Great American Eclipse 2014

Today in North America we celebrate a rare astronomical event the Total Solar Eclipse. This is the First Total Solar Eclipse in USA Since 1979. This is the first total eclipse of the Sun visible from the contiguous United States (excluding Alaska and Hawaii) since February 26, 1979. The last time a total eclipse was visible from coast to coast was on June 8, 1918.. As many Americans put on their eclipse glasses or make home-made viewing stations I thought it would be fun to post this for those who will make this cosmic celebration an event. If the eclipse bug has truly bitten you, then you won’t be able to wait until the next North American total solar eclipse in 2024.

 

“Solar Eclipse” is song by Italian band The Creatures not to ne confused with the British band of the same name. The Italo Disco band is one of the lost meteors of the 1980s. The Creatures consists of members Mario Flores and Maurizio Sangineto. “Solar Eclipse” was taken from the album “Illusion” released in 1985.
